What is the gravitational potential energy of a ball with a weight of 72 N when it is sitting on a shelf 1.4 m above the floor?

1 answer:

4 0

First you must convert the weight to mass. So:

W = mg (assuming that gravity is 9.8 Nkg-1)

m = W/g
= 72 / 9.8
= 7.3kg

Then we can use Ep = mgh

= 7.3*9.8*1.4

= 100.1N

A large plate carries a uniform charge density σ = 8. 85 × 10-9 c/m2. a pattern showing equipotential surfaces with a 5 v potent

vfiekz [6]

The potential difference comes out to be

$10 \times 10 {}^{ - 3} m$

Given:

σ = 8. 85 × 10-9 c/m2

we know,

$E = \frac{σ}{2ε0}$

$E = \frac{8.85 \times 10 {}^{ - 9} }{2ε0}$

$E = \frac{v}{d}$

given the potential difference between two equipotential surface=5v

E=∆v

∆d=∆v/E

$= \frac{5 \times 8.85 \times 10 { }^{ - 12} \times 2 }{8.85 \times 10 {}^{ - 9} }$

$Δ = 10 \times 10 {}^{ - 3} m$

Thus the potential difference is

$10 \times 10 {}^{ - 3} m$

A planned high-speed train between Houston and Dallas will travel a distance of 386 kilometers in 5.40 × 10^3 seconds. What is t

Mazyrski [523]

¡Hellow!

For this problem, first, lets convert the seconds in hours:

5,4x10³ $\rightarrow$ 5400

h = sec / 3600

h = 5400 s / 3600

h = 1,5

Let's recabe information:

d (Distance) = 386 km

t (Time) = 1,5 h

v (Velocity) = ?

For calculate velocity, let's applicate formula:

$\boxed{\boxed{\textbf{d = v * t} } }$

Reeplace according we information:

386 km = v * 1,5 h

v = 386 km / 1,5 h

v = 257,33 km/h

The velocity of the train is of <u>257,33 kilometers for hour.</u>

<u></u>

Extra:

For convert km/h to m/s, we divide the velocity of km/h for 3,6:

m/s = km/h / 3,6

Let's reeplace:

m/s = 257,33 km/h / 3,6

m/s = 71,48

¿Good Luck?

Explain the difference between the three types of friction

USPshnik [31]

Static Friction

It is the friction that exists between a stationary object and the surface on which it's resting.

Sliding friction

It is the resistance created by two objects sliding against each other.

Rolling friction:-

It is the force resisting the motion when a body rolls on a surface.

hope this helps x
