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 closed circuit is formed by a solid conductor in contact with two parallel conducting rails that are closed on their left end,
castortr0y [4]

this is an equation that you need to solve for motional emf. motional emf=vBL, where v is velocity in meters/second, B is magnetic field in Teslas and L is length or distance the rails are apart from each other. when we plug everything into the formula given above, we get: motional emf=5m/s*0.80T*0.20m. solving all this we get 0.8 volts. pretty sure that since they are giving you the direction of the field, they want to know which way the current will flow . since the conductor is moving from left to right the area of the field is increasing which means magnetic flux is increasing as Ф(magnetic flux)=B(magnetic field)*A(area)*cosФ(little phi is the angle to the normal. in this case little fee is 0 degrees so the cosФ doesn't matter). so ↑Ф=B↑A. if magnetic flux is increasing, the induced magnetic field is in the opposite direction as the original magnetic field meaning the induced magnetic field will be out of the page. using the right hand rule which says that if the field is in to the page, the current should go clockwise and if the field is out of the page, the current is counterclockwise so that means that the current should be going counter clockwise since the induced field is going out of the screen. the top of the conducting wire will have its current go to the left and the bottom of the conducting wire will have the current go to the right.

A circuit consists of a 12 V battery connected across a single resistor. If the current in the circuit is
finlep [7]

Answer:

4 Ohms

Explanation:

Apply the formula:

Voltage = I (current) . Resistance

You can change it the way you want to use for your purpose.

In this case...

R = V/I

R = 12/3

R = 4 Ohms (Ohm is the unit of measurement of eletrical resistance)

A horizontal force of magnitude 30.2 N pushes a block of mass 3.50 kg across a floor where the coefficient of kinetic friction i
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

A) 89.39 J

B) 30.39J

C) 23.8 J

Explanation:

We are given;

F = 30.2N

m = 3.5 kg

μ_k = 0.646

d = 2.96m

ΔEth (Block) = 35.2J

A) Work done by the applied force on the block-floor system is given as;

W = F•d

Thus, W = 30.2 x 2.96 = 89.39 J

B) Total thermal energy dissipated by the whole system which includes the floor and the block is given as;

ΔEth = μ_k•mgd

Thus, ΔEth = 0.646 x 3.5 x 9.8 x 2.96 = 65.59J

Now, we are given the thermal energy of the block which is ΔEth (Block) = 35.2J.

Thus,

ΔEth = ΔEth (Block) + ΔEth (floor)

Thus,

ΔEth (floor) = ΔEth - ΔEth (Block)

ΔEth (floor) = 65.59J - 35.2J = 30.39J

C) The total work done is considered as the sum of the thermal energy dissipated as heat and the kinetic energy of the block. Thus;

W = K + ΔEth

Therefore;

K = W - ΔEth

K = 89.39 - 65.59 = 23.8J
