A car is raised on a lift at a service station (so it has some amount of gravitational potential energy relative to the ground).

If it were raised twice as high, how much gravitational potential energy would it have compared with what it had at the first height?

Answer:Twice

Explanation:

It is given that car is raised on a lift with respect to ground.

Suppose car is raised by a height of h m from ground having mass m so gain in Potential Energy by car is

Gain in P.E._1=m\times g\times h

Now if it were raised twice as high,i.e. 2 h height from ground then gain in Gravitational Potential Energy

=m\times g\times 2h

P.E._2=2m\cdot g\cdot h

It is clear that P.E._2=2\cdot P.E._1

Thus in second case gain in Potential Energy is twice as compared to first case

How does temperature influence the appearance of a star? Give an example in your response.
loris [4]

The cooler the temp of the star the star would appear to glisten a red. if the star is warmer the star would be a light blue or blue. An example would be the tiny red dwarf stars. they only have 7% of the suns heat so they appear red.

A typical ceiling fan running at high speed has an airflow of about 2.00 ✕ 103 ft3/min, meaning that about 2.00 ✕ 103 cubic feet
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

0.94 m³/s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Air flow (in ft³/min) = 2×10³ ft³/min

Air flow (in m³/s) =.?

Next, we shall convert 2×10³ ft³/min to m³/min. This can be obtained as follow:

35.315 ft³/min = 1 m³/min

Therefore,

2×10³ ft³/min = 2×10³ ft³/min × 1 m³/min / 35.315 ft³/min

2×10³ ft³/min = 56.63 m³/min

Finally, we shall convert 56.63 m³/min to m³/s. This can be obtained as follow:

1 m³/min = 1/60 m³/s

Therefore,

56.63 m³/min = 56.63 m³/min × 1/60 m³/s ÷ 1 m³/min

56.63 m³/min = 0.94 m³/s

Thus, 2×10³ ft³/minis equivalent to 0.94 m³/s.

Zanzabum

Complete question:

Resistor is made of a very thin metal wire that is 3.2 mm long, with a diameter of 0.4 mm. What is the electric field inside this metal resistor? If the potential difference due to electric field between the two ends of the resistor is 10 V.

Answer:

The electric field inside this metal resistor is 3125 V/m

Explanation:

Given;

length of the wire, L = 3.2 mm = 3.2 x 10⁻³ m

diameter of the wire, d = 0.4 mm = 0.4 x 10⁻³ m

the potential difference due to electric field between the two ends of the resistor, V = 10 V

The electric field inside this metal resistor is given by;

ΔV = EL

where;

ΔV is change in electric potential

E = ΔV / L

E = 10 / (3.2 x 10⁻³ )

E = 3125 V/m

Therefore, the electric field inside this metal resistor is 3125 V/m
