Answer:

The Energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position or state is called Potential energy.

Mathematically potential energy can be written as,

Potential energy = mgh

Where 'm' represents mass of the body, 'g' represents gravity of the earth and 'h' represents height of body. Potential energy depends on the height, higher the hight from the surface of the earth, maximum will be the potential energy.

A spring-mounted chair in which the astronaut sits, can be used to find the mass of an astronaut. The chair is then made to osci
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

M = 175 kg

Explanation:

In the resolution of the harmonic oscillator movement of a system and a mass with a spring, the angular velocity is

    w = √ k / m

Where k is the spring constant and m the mass

In this case the mass is the mass of the chair (m) plus the mass of the astronaut (M)

    M all = m + M

The angular velocity and the period are related by

    w = 2π / T

Substituting

   2π / T = √(k/(m + M))

We calculate the astronaut's mass

   4π² / T² = k / (m + M)

   M = k T² / 4π² - m

   M = 569 3.6² /(4π²) - 11

   M = 186.8 - 11

   M = 175 kg

In which situations is gravitational potential energy present?
Assoli18 [71]
Gravitational potential energy is associated with the shape or position of an object.
1.)When an object is placed at height h above ground, gravitational potential energy associated with it is given by,
P.E = mgh
2.)In projectile motion during upward motion, kinetic energy of object is converted into potential energy.

A uniformly charged, straight filament 5.10 m in length has a total positive charge of 2.00 µC. An uncharged cardboard cylinder
Ratling [72]

Answer:

70509.8039216 N/C

Explanation:

k = Coulomb constant = 8.99\times 10^{9}\ Nm^2/C^2

q = Charge = 2.00 µC

l = Length of filament = 5.1 m

r = Radius of cylinder = 10 cm

\lambda=\dfrac{q}{l}

Electric field is given by

E=\dfrac{2k\lambda}{r}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{2\times 8.99\times 10^9\times \dfrac{2\times 10^{-6}}{5.1}}{10\times 10^{-2}}\\\Rightarrow E=70509.8039216\ N/C

The electric field at the surface of the cylinder is 70509.8039216 N/C
