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

if an object is moving at a constant speed in a changing direction, What is the acceleration of the object (zero or not zero)​
Andreas93 [3]
  • We know, acceleration is the change of velocity by time.
  • Velocity is the speed of an object which also indicates the direction.
  • Hence, acceleration is both dependant upon the speed as well as the direction.
  • So, if an object is moving at a constant speed in a changing direction, the acceleration will also change. It will not be zero.
  • An example is that of uniform circular motion.

Answer:

if an object is moving at a constant speed in a changing direction, the acceleration of the object will not be zero.

It would last as long as the applied force continued, or until the accelerating object hit something.
