Answer:
10kg
Explanation:
Let PE=potential energy
PE=196J
g(gravitational force)=9.8m/s^2
h(change in height)=2m
m=?
PE=m*g*(change in h)
196=m*9.8*2
m=10kg
Answer:
K = -½U
Explanation:
From Newton's law of gravitation, the formula for gravitational potential energy is;
U = -GMm/R
Where,
G is gravitational constant
M and m are the two masses exerting the forces
R is the distance between the two objects
Now, in the question, we are given that kinetic energy is;
K = GMm/2R
Re-rranging, we have;
K = ½(GMm/R)
Comparing the equation of kinetic energy to that of potential energy, we can derive that gravitational kinetic energy can be expressed in terms of potential energy as;
K = -½U
Answer:
Explanation:
When the central shaft rotates , the seat along with passenger also rotates . Their rotation requires a centripetal force of mw²R where m is mass of the passenger and w is the angular velocity and R is radius of the circle in which the passenger rotates.
This force is provided by a component of T , the tension in the rope from which the passenger hangs . If θ be the angle the rope makes with horizontal ,
T cos θ will provide the centripetal force . So
Tcosθ = mw²R
Tsinθ component will balance the weight .
Tsinθ = mg
Dividing the two equation
Tanθ = 
Hence for a given w , θ depends upon g or weight .
It's true, when we lift an object we add energy to it.
because, when we lift an object by applying force , the object attains a height and hence the energy gets stored in it, in the form gravitational potential energy .
