We know, Potential Energy = m * g * h
Here, mass & gravity would be same, but their height will change so it will be:

ΔU = U₂ - U₁
ΔU = mgh₂ - mgh₁
ΔU = mg (h₂ - h₁)

Hope this helps!

Two uncharged metal spheres, spaced 25.0 cm apart, have a capacitance of 26.0 pF. How much work would it take to move 12.0 nC of
viktelen [127]

Answer:

W=2.76\times 10^{-6}\ J

Explanation:

Given that,

The distance between two spheres, r = 25 cm = 0.25 m

The capacitance, C = 26 pF = 26×10⁻¹² F

Charge, Q = 12 nC = 12 × 10⁻⁹ C

We need to find the work done in moving the charge. We know that, work done is given by :

U=\dfrac{Q^2}{2C}

Put all the values,

U=\dfrac{(12\times 10^{-9})^2}{2\times 26\times 10^{-12}}\\\\U=2.76\times 10^{-6}\ J

So, the work done is 2.76\times 10^{-6}\ J.

A baseball has a mass of 0.145 kilograms, and a bowling ball has a mass of 6.8 kilograms. What is the gravitational force betwee
Olegator [25]
Quite low

Gravitation force = \frac{6.67* 10^{-11}*0.145*6.8 }{ 0.5^{2} } = 26.3 * 10^{-11} = 2.63 *10^{-10} N

The space shuttle, in circular orbit around the Earth, collides with a small asteroid which ends up in the shuttle's storage bay
Artemon [7]

Answer:

b

Explanation:

The space shuttle, in circular orbit around the Earth, collides with a small asteroid which ends up in the shuttle's storage bay.

This form of collision is called inelastic collision. And inelastic collision momentum is conserved but the kinetic energy is not conserved. Hence the correct option is b. only momentum is conserved.
