Answer: force of gravity on the body due to height difference above the earth's surface
Explanation: as you increase the height of a body above ground, you do work against gravity in moving it from a point on the earth's surface to that point. So a body falling has a stored up gravito-potential energy which acts on it downward due to its mass, accelerating it downwards
Answer b): kinetic energy of the body
Explanation: the downward force produces an acceleration of magnitude 9.81m/s2 downwards which means an increasing velocity. This increasing velocity means the kinetic energy of the body is increasing (kinetic energy is proportional to velocity of the body squared)
Answer:
A. 420 J
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Mass = 30.45 g
Specific heat capacity = 4.18 J/g °C.
Temperature = 3.3°C
To find the quantity of heat;
Heat capacity is given by the formula;
Where;
Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.
m represents the mass of an object.
c represents the specific heat capacity of water.
t represents the temperature.
Substituting into the equation, we have;
Q = 420.03 ≈ 420 Joules
Newton's second law tells you:
Sum of forces on an object = ma
Here, the forces acting on the bundle are the tension in the string and the force of gravity, these two must combine to yield the acceleration of the bundle.
So we have:
T-mg = ma
or T=m(g+a)
We know m=8.7kg, we need to find a from the information
starting from rest, an accelerating object covers distance according to:
<span>dist = 1/2 at^2 </span>
to cover 1m in 1.8s, we have:
a=2d/t^2 = 2x1/1.8^2 = 0.62 m/s/s
Thus, the tension in the string is:
<span>T = m(g+a)
= 8.7</span>kg(9.8m/s/s+0.62m/s/s)
<span>
<span>T = 90.654 N

Given: distance 1 d₁ = 40 m; distance 2 d₂ = 3.8 m g = -9.8 m/s²
Initial Velocity Vi = 0 Final Velocity of stone 2 is unknown = ?
Total distance dₓ = d₁ - d₂ = 40 m - 3.8 m = 36.2 m
Formula: a = Vf² - Vi²/2d derive for Final Velocity Vf
acceleration is now due to gravity, therefore a = g
Vf = √2gd Vf = √2(9.8 m/s²)(36.2 m)
Vf = 26.64 m/s
Reason: The second stone will still start from rest.
Light gates are more reliable. When using a manual stop watch, it is difficult to stop it at an exact time. A light gate is able to detect when an object passes through a 'gate' with the infrared transmitter and receiver.
