Answer:

1225J

Explanation:

The Gravitational potential energy (PEG) gained by a mass lifted above the ground is given by

where

m is the mass

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height at which the object has been lifted

In this problem, we have

m = 250 kg

h = 0.5 m

So, the PE of the object is

Answer:

1225 J

Explanation:

The Gravitational potential energy (PEG) gained by a mass lifted above the ground is given by

PE=mgh

where

m is the mass

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height at which the object has been lifted

In this problem, we have

m = 250 kg

h = 0.5 m

So, the PE of the object is

PE=(250 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(0.5 m)=1225 J

In the Balmer series, how many spectral lines have the wavelength greater than 400 nm?
Irina18 [472]

<span>The Balmer series or Balmer lines in atomic physics, is the designation of one of a set of six named series describing the spectral line emissions of the hydrogen atom. The Balmer series is calculated using the Balmer formula, an empirical equation discovered by Johann Balmer in 1885. this is all I know sorry</span>

The melting point of potassium thiocyanate determined by a student in the laboratory turned out to be 174.5 oC. The accepted val
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

0.75%

Explanation:

Measured value of melting point of potassium thiocyanate = 174.5 °C

Actual value of melting point of potassium thiocyanate = 173.2 °C

<em>Error in the reading = |Experimental value - Theoretical value|</em>

<em>= |174.5 - 173.2|</em>

<em>= |1.3|</em>

<em>Percentage error = (Error / Theoretical value) × 100</em>

<em>= (1.3 / 173.2)×100</em>

<em>= 0.75 %</em>

∴ Percentage error in the reading is 0.75%

17. In which layer does mantle convection occur?
Anarel [89]

Answer:

D. Asthenosphere

Explanation:

The asthenosphere is relatively plastic part of the mantle which underlies the brittle lithosphere. In the asthenosphere, it is generally believed that the rocks are in ductile state and easily moves. It is the site of convection within the earth. In mantle convection, hot and light materials rises and keeps moving into upper crustal levels till they solidify. Here also, cold and denser materials sinks deeper till they turn to melt. This differences in temperature and density sets up a convective cell within the mantle. Several convective cells are in the mantle.
