In an arithmetic progression, consecutive terms differ by the same value.

So, we have

$P-6 = 14-P$

which reflects the fact that the difference between P and 6 must be the same than the one between P and 14.

The equation solves to

$2P=20\iff P=10$

And in fact, if you start with

$6, 10, 14$

every pair of consecutive terms differ by 4.

What is the energy of a rock with a mass of 10.2 kg on a cliff that is 300 m height?

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

The potential energy of the rock is 30,000 J

Explanation:

The mechanical energy of an object is equal to the sum of its gravitational potential energy (PE) and its kinetic energy (KE):

$E=PE+KE$

where

PE is the gravitational potential energy, which is the energy possessed by the object due to its position in the gravitational field

KE is the kinetic energy, which is the energy possessed by the object due to its motion

In this problem, the rock is at rest, so its kinetic energy is zero:

KE = 0

Therefore, the energy of the rock is just equal to its potential energy, which is:

$E=PE=mgh$

where

m = 10.2 kg is the mass of the rock

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

h = 300 m is the height of the rock above the ground

Substituting and solving, we find

$PE=(10.2)(9.8)(300)=30,000 J$

How does increasing energy affect the amplitude of a wave?

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

The amount of energy carried by a wave is related to the amplitude of the wave

Explanation:

A high energy wave is characterized by a high amplitude; a low energy wave is characterized by a low amplitude. The energy imparted to a pulse will only affect the amplitude of that pulse.

As you learned in Part B, a non-burning helium core surrounded by a shell of hydrogen-burning gas characterizes the subgiant sta

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

E- The star becomes a red giant (LATEST STAGE)

F- The surface of the star becomes brighter and cooler

C- Pressure from the star's hydrogen-burning shell causes the non burning envelope to expand

A- The shell of hydrogen surrounding the star's nonburning helium core ignites.

D- The star's non burning helium core starts to contract and heat up

B- Pressure in the star's core decreases (EARLIEST STAGE)

(A star moves away from the main sequence once its core runs out of hydrogen to fuse into helium. The energy once supplied by hydrogen burning reduces and the core starts to compress under the force of gravity. This contraction allows the core and surrounding layers to heat up. Finally, the hydrogen shell around the core becomes hot enough to ignite hydrogen burning.
