Here, you can calculate it's potential energy with respect to ground.
We know, U = mgh
Here, m = 75 Kg
g = 9.8 m/s²       [ constant value for earth system ]
h = 300 m

Substitute their values into the expression:
U = 75 × 9.8  × 300
U = 220500 J

In short, Your Final Answer would be 220,500 J 

Hope this helps!

A 2.20-kg object is attached to a spring and placed on frictionless, horizontal surface. A horizontal force of 29.0 N is require
g100num [7]

Answer:

a. 145 N/m b. 1.29 Hz c. 1.62 m/s d.  0 m e. 13.2 m/s² f. ± 0.2 m g. 2.9 J h. 0.54 m/s i. 4.39 m/s²

Explanation:

a. The force constant of the spring

The spring force F = kx and k = F/x where k is the spring constant. F = 29.0 N and x = 0.200 m

k = 29.0 N/0.200 m = 145 N/m

b. The frequency of oscillations, f

f = 1/2π√(k/m)    m = mass = 2.20 kg

f = 1/2π√(145 N/m/2.20 kg) = 1.29 Hz

c. maximum speed of the object

The maximum elastic potential energy of the spring = maximum kinetic  energy of the object

1/2kx² = 1/2mv²

v = (√k/m)x where v is the maximum speed of the object

v = (√145/2.2)0.2 = 1.62 m/s

d Where does the maximum speed occur?

The maximum speed occurs at  0 m

e. The maximum acceleration

a = kx/m = 145 × 0.2/2.2 = 13.2 m/s²

f. The maximum acceleration occurs at x = ± 0.2 m

g. The total energy of the system is the maximum elestic potential energy of the system

E = 1/2kx² = 1/2 × 145 × 0.2² = 2.9 J

h. When x = x₀/3

1/2k(x₀/3)² = 1/2mv²

kx₀²/9 = mv²

v = 1/3(√k/m)x₀ = 1/3(√145/2.2)0.2 = 0.54 m/s

i When x = x₀/3

a = kx₀/3m =  145 × 0.2/(2.2 × 3)= 4.39 m/s²

What will be the force if the particle's charge is tripled and the electric field strength is halved? Give your answer in terms
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

F' = (3/2)F

Explanation:

the formula for the electric field strength is given as follows:

E = F/q

where,

E = Electric Field Strength

F = Force due to the electric field

q = magnitude of charge experiencing the force

Therefore,

F = E q   ---------------- equation (1)

Now, if we half the electric field strength and make the magnitude of charge triple its initial value. Then the force will become:

F' = (E/2)(3 q)

F' = (3/2)(E q)

using equation (1)

<u>F' = (3/2)F</u>

A 594 Ω resistor, an uncharged 1.3 μF capacitor, and a 6.53 V emf are connected in series. What is the current in milliamps afte
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

6.88 mA

Explanation:

Given:

Resistance, R = 594 Ω

Capacitance = 1.3 μF

emf, V = 6.53 V

Time, t = 1 time constant

Now,

The initial current, I₀ = \frac{\textup{V}}{\textup{R}}

or

I₀ = \frac{\textup{6.53}}{\textup{594}}

or

I₀ = 0.0109 A

also,

I = I_0[1-e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}}]

here,

τ = time constant

e = 2.717

on substituting the respective values, we get

I = 0.0109[1-e^{-\frac{\tau}{\tau}}]

or

I = 0.0109[1-2.717^{-1}]

or

I = 0.00688 A

or

I = 6.88 mA

Is distance traveled by a moving train qualitative discrete continuous or na?
butalik [34]
Continuous. Discrete values are values like 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. - they're values that are <em>distinct</em>, and typically there's some idea of a <em>next </em>and a <em>previous </em>value. When we're counting whole numbers, there's a definitive answer to which number comes after, and which number comes before. With continuous values, there's no real "next" or "last" value.

Motion is measured with <em>continuous </em>values; a train might move 300 yards in 1 minute, but we can look at smaller and smaller chunks of time to keep getting shorter and shorter distances. There is no <em />"next" distance the train moves after those 300 yards - it just doesn't make sense for there to be.

It's also measured <em>quantitatively</em>, not <em>qualitatively</em>. This just means that we can use numerical values to measure it, rather than other descriptors like color, smell, or taste.
