Can a moving object have gravitational energy?
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

It is worth noting that the higher the gravitational energy of an object moving downwards, the lower the kinetic energy, and the lower the kinetic energy of an object moving upwards, the higher its gravitational energy.

Gravitational potential energy is acquired by an object when it has been moved against a gravitational field. For example, an object raised above the surface of the Earth will gain energy, which is released if the object is allowed to fall back to the ground.

A racing car whose mass is 1.2 X 10^3 kg is travelling at 8.9 m/s. It stops with a constant deceleration in a distance of 1.8X10
Alexeev081 [22]

given that initial speed of the car is

v_i = 8.9 m/s

now after travelling the distance d = 1.8 * 10^1 m the car will stop

so here we can use kinematics to find the acceleration of car

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

0 - 8.9^2 = 2 a d

here we have

- 79.21 = 2*(18)*a

a = -2.2 m/s^2

net force applied due to brakes of car is given by Newton's II law

F = ma

here we have

mass = 1.2 * 10^3 kg

F_{net} = 1.2 * 10^3 * 2.2

F_{net} = 2.64 * 10^3 N

now we can say

F_{net} = F_1 + F_2

2.64 * 10^3 = 1.8 * 10^3 + F_2

F_2 = 8.4 * 10^2 N

So the force applied due to brakes is given as above

What happens to the volume the gas occupies when the pressure on a gas increases?
taurus [48]
Each time they collide with the walls they exert a force on them. More collisions mean more force, so the pressure will increase. When the volume decreases, the pressure increases. This shows that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume.
