Answer:

539,000 J

Explanation:

The equation for finding potential energy is PE = m × g × h, where m = mass (kg), g = gravity (9.8 m/s^2), and h = height (m).

So, multiply [500 kg], [110 m], and [9.8 m/s^2], so the answer would then be 539,000 J.

Potential energy=PE
PE=mgh
m=mass in kilograms.
g=9.8 m/s
h=height in meters

Data:
mass=500 Kg
h=110 m

PE=(500 Kg)(9.8 m/s²)(110 m)=539000 joules

answer: The potential energy of this train would be 539000 J.

A pair of closely spaced parallel conducting plates, charged with equal and opposite electric charges, produces a uniform electr
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

Plate B.

Explanation:

If the direction of the electric field is from plate A to plate B, then this means that plate A is positively charged and plate B is negatively charged. If we are to move an electron between the plates, then we should place the electron on plate B, so the negatively charged electron can be attracted by the positive charges on plate A.

The grounded conductor and the grounding conductor are one and the same conductor and perform the same function.
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

Grounded  used to carry the current in the normal conditions. while on the other side grounding is refer to that safety wire that is connected to the earth and currently does not transmit through it.

As grounding wire is referred to as safety wire hence it carries current only in an emergency like a short circuit.

Explanation:

A grounded conductor is referred to as one of the wire that needed in an electric circuit. it is basically a neutral conductor.  It used to carry the current in the normal conditions. while on the other side grounding is refer to that safety wire that is connected to the earth and currently does not transmit through it.

As grounding wire is referred to as safety wire hence it carries current only in an emergency like a short circuit.

The amount of energy that must be absorbed or lost to raise or lower the temperature of 1 g of liquid water by 1°c _____.
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

4.2 J

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity: This is defined as the amount of a heat required to rise a unit mass of a substance through a temperature of 1 K

From specific heat capacity,

Q = cmΔt.............................. Equation 1

Where Q = amount of energy absorbed or lost, c = specific heat capacity of water, m = mass of water, Δt = Temperature rise.

Given: m = 1 g = 0.001 kg, Δt = 1 °C

Constant : c = 4200 J/kg.°C

Substitute into equation 1

Q = 0.001×4200(1)

Q = 4.2 J.

Hence the energy absorbed or lost = 4.2 J
