A ball is dropped from the top of a cliff. By the time it reaches the ground, all of its gravitational potential energy has been

transferred into kinetic energy. If the ball is travelling at 20m/s when it hits the ground, what height was it dropped from? (Assume that the gravitational field strength is 10N/kg.)

Answer:

20 m

Explanation:

Initial potential energy = final kinetic energy

mgh = 1/2 mv²

gh = 1/2 v²

h = v² / (2g)

Given v = 20 m/s and g = 10 m/s²:

h = (20 m/s)² / (2 × 10 m/s²)

h = 20 m

31. Draw a free body diagram for a 15.5N box that is being pushed to the right with a 18. N force while experiencing 4.30 N of r
posledela

Answer:

See answers below

Explanation:

a.

F = mg,

15.5 N = m(9.8 m/s²)

m = 1.58 kg

b.

Fnet = Applied force - resistance,

Fnet = 18 N - 4.30 N,

Fnet = 13.70 N

Fnet = ma

13.70 N = (1.58 kg)a

a = 8.67 m/s²

For the free body diagram, draw a box with an upward arrow labeled 15.5 N, a downward label labeled 15.5 N, a right label labeled 18 N, and a left label labeled 4.30 N.

What is the difference between thermal energy and heat?
Romashka [77]

Answer:

One transfer's and the other doesn't

Explanation:

Thermal energy doesn't transfer, but remain a part of the internal energy of the system.Heat transfer's it's energy, like when you sit in a cold chair, then becomes warm.That's because the energy was transferred from your body to the chair.

The electric flux through a spherical surface is 1.4 ✕ 105 N · m2/C. What is the net charge (in C) enclosed by the surface?
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

The  value is   Q_{net} =  1.239 *10^{-6} \  C

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The electric flux is \Phi =  1.4*10^{5} \  N\cdot m^2/C

     

Generally the net charge is mathematically represented as

    Q_{net} =  \Phi *  \epsilon_o

Here \epsilon_o is the permetivity of free space with value  

       \epsilon_o =  8.85*10^{-12}  \  \  m^{-3} \cdot kg^{-1}\cdot  s^4 \cdot A^2

So

   Q_{net} =  1.4*10^5 *  8.85*10^{-12}

=>   Q_{net} =  1.239 *10^{-6} \  C

Two gravitational forces act on a particle, in perpendicular directions. to find the net force, can we add the magnitudes of tho
Anna71 [15]

No, we can not add the magnitudes of those two forces.

<h3>What is Gravitational Force?</h3>

An attractive force between masses is a gravitational force. According to Isaac Newton's second law, F = ma, a gravitational force generates an acceleration just like all other forces do. Remember that according to Newton's second law, a body will accelerate if there is a net force acting on it in an inertial frame of reference (a coordinate system travelling at a constant speed). According to Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation, when two bodies, such as the Earth and the Sun, are in close proximity to one another, an attractive force naturally attracts them. This attraction results in an acceleration of the two objects.

What two factors determine the directions of the global winds?
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:.

Coriolis effect and Temperature differences between the equator and the polar areas.

Explanation:

Global winds are created by both the spin of the Earth (Coriolis effect) and the differences in temperature between the equator and the polar areas. These winds are often grouped together as trade winds, easterlies, and westerlies.
