gravitational Potential energy is given by

$GPE = mgh$

here we have

m = 200 kg

h = 21000 m

now we will have

$GPE = 200(9.8)(21000)$

$GPE = 4.116 \times 10^7 J$

so GPE of balloon will be 41160000 J above the given height from ground

What happens to the moleclues within a gas when the gas Condeenses

motikmotik

Condensation happens when molecules in a gas cool down. As the molecules lose heat, they lose energy and slow down. They move closer to other gas molecules. Finally these molecules collect together to form a liquid. Hope it helps

What is the resistance of : A) A 1.70 m long copper wire that is 0.700 mm in diameter? B) A 20.0 cm long piece of carbon with a

astra-53 [7]

Answer:

(I). The resistance of the copper wire is 0.0742 Ω.

(II). The resistance of the carbon piece is 1.75 Ω.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of copper wire = 1.70 m

Diameter = 0.700 mm

Length of carbon piece = 20.0 cm

Cross section area $A = (2.00\times10^{-3})^2\ m$

(I). We need to calculate the area of copper wire

Using formula of area

$A=\pi r^2$

$A=3.14\times(\dfrac{0.700\times10^{-3}}{2})^2$

We need to calculate the resistance

Using formula of resistance

$R=\dfrac{\rho l}{A}$

Put the value into the formula

$R=\dfrac{1.68\times10^{-8}\times1.70}{3.14\times(\dfrac{0.700\times10^{-3}}{2})^2}$

$R=0.0742\ \Omega$

(II). We need to calculate the resistance

Using formula of resistance

$R=\dfrac{\rho l}{A}$

Put the value into the formula

$R=\dfrac{3.5\times10^{-5}\times20\times10^{-2}}{(2.00\times10^{-3})^2}$

$R=1.75\ \Omega$

Hence, (I). The resistance of the copper wire is 0.0742 Ω.

(II). The resistance of the carbon piece is 1.75 Ω.

A 6,000N is applied to a formula one car that weighs 500kg. What is the car's acceleration?

Vesna [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

$a = \frac{f}{m} \\$

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question

f = 6000 N

m = 500 kg

We have

$a = \frac{6000}{500} = \frac{60}{5} = 12 \\$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you
