Two objects were lifted by a machine. one object had a mass of 2 kilograms and was lifted at the speed of 2 m/s. the other had a

mass of 4 kilograms and
was lifted at a rate of 3 m/s. which object had more potential energy when it was lifted to a distance of 10 meters

Potential energy is proportional to the object's mass, and to the height
to which it's lifted. If the heights are the same, then it depends only on
the mass, and the 4-kg object has more potential energy at that height.
How long it took each one to arrive at that height is a totally irrelevant
consideration.

Which one of the following is not equivalent to 2.50 miles?

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Choice C is not equivalent to 2.50 miles.

Explanation:

The given data is now converted into feet, inches, kilometers, yards and centimeters:

mi - ft

$x = (2.50\,mi)\cdot \left(5280\,\frac{ft}{mi} \right)$

$x = 13200\,ft$

$x = 1.320\times 10^{4}\,ft$ (Choice A)

mi - in

$x = (2.50\,mi)\cdot \left(5280\,\frac{ft}{mi} \right)\cdot \left(12\,\frac{in}{ft} \right)$

$x = 158400\,in$

$x = 1.584\times 10^{5}$ (Choice B)

mi - km

$x = (2.50\,mi)\cdot \left(1.61\,\frac{km}{mi} \right)$

$x = 4.025\,km$ (Different from Choice C)

mi - yd

$x = (2.50\,mi)\cdot \left(5280\,\frac{ft}{mi}\right) \cdot \left(\frac{1}{3}\,\frac{yd}{ft} \right)$

$x = 4400\,yd$

$x = 4.40\times 10^{3}\,yd$ (Choice D)

mi - cm

$x = (2.50\,mi)\cdot \left(1.61\,\frac{km}{mi} \right)\cdot \left(100000\,\frac{cm}{km}\right)$

$x = 402500\,cm$

$x = 4.025\times 10^{5}\,cm$ (Choice E)

Choice C is not equivalent to 2.50 miles.

im a bit confused on what the question is:(

if its just asking for the total number of km traveled it would be 21 km

A student stands on a scale, and the scale reads 85 N. What is being measured by the scale

Dmitry [639]

Force. Force is measured by newtons, probably because he came up with the equations to calculate force.

Hope this helps!

A 6.0 g marble is fired vertically upward using a spring gun. The spring must be compressed 9.4 cm if the marble is to just reac

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

a) $\Delta U_{g} = 12.945\,J$ , b) $\Delta U_{k} = 12.945\,J$ , c) $k = 2930.059\,\frac{N}{m}$

Explanation:

a) The change in the gravitational potential energy of the marble-Earth system is:

$\Delta U_{g} = (0.06\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}\right)\cdot (22\,m)$

$\Delta U_{g} = 12.945\,J$

b) The change in the elastic potential energy of the spring is equal to the change in the gravitational potential energy, then:

$\Delta U_{k} = 12.945\,J$

c) The spring constant of the gun is:

$\Delta U_{k} = \frac{1}{2} \cdot k \cdot x^{2}$

$k = \frac{2\cdot \Delta U_{k}}{x^{2}}$

$k = \frac{2\cdot (12.945\,J)}{(0.094\,m)^{2}}$

$k = 2930.059\,\frac{N}{m}$
