Find the potential energy of a 50gof mass 10kg standing on a building floor of 10m above the ground level​

Physics
1 answer:
LenaWriter [7]3 years ago
4 0

solution:

here,

mass(m)=10 kg

acceleration due to gravity(g)=50

height(h)=10

we know,

potential energy(p.e)=m*g*h

                                  =10*50*10

                                   =5000

the potential energy is 5000.

You and your friends are having a discussion about weight. He/she claims that he/she weighs less on the 100th floor of a buildin
Viktor [21]

Answer:

if the weight theoretically decreases at this height, but in a fraction of 10⁻⁵, which is not appreciable in any scale, therefore, the reading of the scale in the two places is the same.

Explanation:

The weight of a person in the force with which the Earth attracts the person, therefore can be calculated using the law of universal attraction

          F = G m M / r²

Where m is the mass of the person, M the masses of the earth

Let's call the person's weight at ground level as Wo and suppose the distance to the center of the Earth is Re

            W₀ = G m M / Re²

In the calculation of the weight of the person on the 100th floor the only thing that changes is the distance

          r = Re + 100 r₀

Where r₀ is the distance between the floors, which is approximately 2.5 m, so the distance is

         r = Re + 250

We substitute

     W = G m M / r²

      W = G m M / (Re + 250)²

The value of Re is 6.37 10⁶ m, so we can take it out as a factor and perform a serial expansion of the remaining fraction

      W = G m M / Re² (1+ 250 / Re)²

      (1 + 250 / Re)⁻² = 1 + (-2) 250 / Re + (-2 (-2-1)) / 2 (250 / Re)² +….

The value of the expression is

      (1 + 250 / Re)⁻² = 1 -2 250 / 6.37 10⁶ -30 (250 / 6.37)² 10⁻¹² + ...

We can see that the quadratic term is very small, which is why we despise it, we substitute in the weight equation

      W = G m M / Re² (1 - 78.5 10⁻⁶)

Remains

     W = Wo (1 - 7.85  10⁻⁵)

We can see that if the weight theoretically decreases at this height, but in a fraction of 10⁻⁵, which is not appreciable in any scale, therefore, the reading of the scale in the two places is the same.

What was the voltage on the battery for the #2 series circuit with two light bulbs?A: 4 VB: 18 VC: 4.5 VD: 9 V
Ghella [55]

We are given a series circuit with two light bulbs. In this case, the light bulbs act as resistors in series and the total resistance is:

R_t=R_1+R_2

That is the sum of all the resistances in series in the circuit. To determine the voltage we can use Ohm's law:

V=IR

Where "R" is the total resistance and "I" is the current in the circuit. Replacing we get:

V=I(R_1+R_2)
