Determine the amount of potential energy of a 5N book that is 1.5m high on a shelf.
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

Potential energy of book = 7.5 J

Explanation:

Given:

Weight of book = 5 N

Height of shelf = 1.5 meter

Find:

Potential energy of book

Computation:

Weight = Mass x Acceleration of gravity

Mass x Acceleration of gravity = 5 N

Potential energy = Mass x Acceleration of gravity x Height

Potential energy of book = Mass x Acceleration of gravity x Height

We know that;

Mass x Acceleration of gravity = 5 N

So,

Potential energy of book = 5 x 1.5

Potential energy of book = 7.5 J

Explain the difference between what Isaac Newton and Louis de Broglie would have to say about the momentum of a particle that is
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Newton would resort to the classical mechanics and say that the momentum of the particle that is moving with a constant velocity will be given by: momentum = mass x velocity

this approach will highlight the particle nature and will not be relativistic.

De-Broglie will say that the momentum of the particle is related to its associated matter wave and the relation between them is given by:

p = \frac{h}{\lambda}

where \lambda = wavelength of the matter wave associated to the particle, h = planck's constant

andp = \gamma\times mv

thus, this highlights the wave nature of the particle and is also relativistic.

A volcano erupts and launches a chunk of hot magma horizontally with a speed of 252 m/s. The magma travels a horizontal distance
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

The value is v_y  =  -48.61 \ m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The horizontal speed is  u_x  = 252 \  m/s

    The horizontal distance is  d = 1250 \ m

Generally the time taken by the hot magma in air before landing is mathematically represented as

       t = \frac{d}{u_x}

=>    t = \frac{ 1250 }{252}

=>    t = 4.96 \  s

Generally the initial vertical velocity of the magma when it was lunched is  

    u_y = 0 \ m/ s

Then the final velocity of the magma when it hits the ground is mathematically represented s

       - v_y  =  u_y + gt

Here the negative sign mean that the direction of the velocity is towards the negative y -axis

So  

        - v_y  =  48.61 \ m/s

=>     v_y  =  -48.61 \ m/s
