The gravitational potential energy will increase

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy (GPE) of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its position in a gravitational field.

Near the Earth's surface, the GPE of an object is given by

GPE=mgh

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration of gravity

h is the heigth of the object above the ground

From the equation, we see that the GPE is directly proportional to the mass: therefore, if the mass increases, the GPE will increase as well.

So, for the beanbag in this problem, when its mass increases, the GPE will increase as well.

A 200 g, 20 cm diameter plastic disk is spun on an axle through its center by an electric motor. What torque must the motor supp
Rama09 [41]

Answer: The torque required is 0.0471 N m.

Explanation:

Mass of the disc = 200 g = 0.2 kg (1 kg =1000 g)

Radius of the disc =\frac{Diameter}{2}= 10 cm = 0.1 m(1 m = 100 cm)

Angular acceleration = \alpha

\alpha =\frac{2\pi\times 1800}{60 \times 4 sec}=15\pi rad/s^2

Moment of inertia = \frac{1}{2}\times mass\times (radius)^2=\frac{1}{2}\times0.2 kg\times (0.1 m)^2=0.001 kg m^2

Torque=\alpha \times I=0.001 kg m^2\times 15\times 3.14 rad/s^2r=0.0471 N m

The torque required is 0.0471 N m.

As light shines from air to water (n = 1.33) at an incident angle of 45.0 degrees what is the angle of refraction
erma4kov [3.2K]
Using Snell's law
we get
sin(I)/sin(r) = U2/U1
• where U2 represent the water's refractive index and U1 represent air's refractive index
thus
sin45°sin(r) = 1.33/1
1/√2*1.33 = sin(r)
1/1.88 = sin(r)
0.531 = sin(r)
thus the refractive angle is 32°

A car has a velocity of 15 m/s.
yan [13]

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 15 m/s

a = 3.5 m/s²

t = 5.0 s

Find: v

v = at + v₀

v = (3.5 m/s²) (5.0 s) + 15 m/s

v = 32.5 m/s
