Answer:

-6.25\cdot 10^7 J

Explanation:

The gravitational potential at a point on the Earth surface is given by:

U=-\frac{GM}{R^2}

where

G=6.67×10^-11Nm^2kg^-2 is the gravitational constant

M=5.98×10^24kg is the Earth's mass

R=6.38×10^6 m is the Earth's radius

Substituting the numbers into the equation, we find

U=-\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24})}{(6.38\cdot 10^6)}=-6.25\cdot 10^7 J

A mass of 2000 kg. is raised 5.0 m in 10 seconds. What is the potential energy of the mass at this height?
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

98,000J

Explanation:

Given parameters :

Mass = 2000kg

Height = 5m

Time = 10s

P. E = mgh

P. E = 2000x 5x 9.8

P.E = 98,000J

Use wave equation calculate the speed of sound in the air if frequency of 110 hz has a wave length of 3 m
kirill115 [55]
Answer = 330 m/s

The wave equation is as follows:

Wave speed = wavelength x frequency

The known values are:
Wavelength = 3m
Frequency = 110 Hz

Substitute the known values into the wave equation to find the wave speed.

Wave speed = 3 x 110

Wave speed = 330 m/s

Give examples of not useful high friction
Tatiana [17]
Friction can be bad by being too strong or too weak. 

<span>Sometimes, when it is too strong, it decreases efficiency since some energy is wasted and turns to heat. Friction can also d</span><span>amage equipment/objects like when you slide it on the floor.
</span>
When friction is too weak, like for instance when there is black ice- our center of gravity is displaced too quickly and we can fall. Likewise, if there is a lot of slush on the ground, cars can slip and slide.
