A worker assigned to the restoration of the Washington Monument is checking the condition of the stone at the very top of the mo
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

The gravitational potential energy of the nickel at the top of the monument is 8.29 J.

Explanation:

We can find the gravitational potential energy using the following  formula.

GPE=mgh

Identifying given information.

The nickel has a mass m=0.005 \,kg, and it is a the top of Washington Monument.

The Washington Monument has a height of h=555 \, ft, thus we need to find the equivalence in meters using unit conversion in  order to find the gravitational potential energy.

Converting from feet to meters.

Using the conversion factor 1 m = 3.28 ft, we have

h = 555 \, ft \times \cfrac{1 \, m}{3.28 \, ft}

That give u s

h = 169.2 \, m

Finding Gravitational Potential Energy.

We can replace the height and mass on the formula

GPE=mgh

And we get

GPE=(0.005)(9.8)(169.2) \, J

\boxed{GPE=8.29 \,J}

The gravitational potential energy of the nickel at the top of the monument is 8.29 J.

A boat moves with a speed of +2.5 m/s in a direction 25° north of east. If the mass of the boat is 15,000 kg, what is the moment
nadya68 [22]
Momentum - mass in motion
P=MV
P=(15,000 kg)(2.5 m/s)
P=37 500 kg x m/s to the north

Use the diagram to answer each question.
valentina_108 [34]

Figure A shows cross section of a land form or rock. In Figure B, compression stress is applied on it. When compression stresses are applied on a rock, it squeezes the rock cause fold or fracture. The fault formed by compression stress is called thrust fault. If the compression stresses/ force continue to act on a rock it will converge and form thrust fault. In Figure C, tension stresses is applied on the rock. When a tension stress applied on a rock it deforms/ lengthen. There are three type of deformations occur due to tension stresses. One is elastic deformation, in which, rock retains it original shape when force/stresses are removed. Second is plastic deformation, in which rock lengthen and change occur permanently. Third type of deformation is result into fracture or breaking of rock. In Figure C, shear stresses are applied on rock. Shear stresses are applied with equal magnitude but in opposite direction. It cause breaking of rock.

Tomtit [17]
The scale would need 10 aluminum cubes on one side. Figure out how many paper clips would be needed on the other side to balance this. You have to use more than one aluminum cube because you need to have enough cubes so that you get a whole number mass. 10 cubes gives you a total mass of 27 g for the aluminum.
