Answer:

The answer to your question is Pe = 2943 kJ

Explanation:

Data

mass = 60 kg

height = 5000 m

gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Potential energy is the energy objects have due to their position.

Formula

 Pe = mgh

- Substitution

 Pe = (60)(9,81)(5000)

- Simplification

 Pe = 2943000 Joules or Pe = 2943 kJ

A solenoid coil with 22 turns of wire is wound tightly around another coil with 340 turns. The inner solenoid is 25.0 cm long an
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

a) 1.34*10^-8 W

b) 1.18*10^-5 H

c) 20mV

Explanation:

a) To find the average magnetic flux trough the inner solenoid you the following formula:

\Phi_B=BA=\mu_oNIA

mu_o: magnetic permeability of vacuum = 4pi*10^-7 T/A

N: turns of the solenoid = 340

I: current of the inner solenoid = 0.100A

A: area of the inner solenoid = pi*r^2

r: radius of the inner solenoid = 2.00cm/2=1.00cm=10^-2m

You calculate the area and then replace the values of N, I, mu_o and A to find the magnetic flux:

A=\pi(10^{-2}m)^2=3.141510^{-4}m^2\\\Phi_B=(4\pi*10^{-7}T/A)(340)(0.100A)(3.1415*10^{-4}m^2)=1.34*10^{-8}W\\

the magnetic flux is 1.34*10^{-8}W

b) the mutual inductance is given by:

M=\mu_o N_1 N_2 \frac{A_2}{l}

N1: turns of the outer solenoid = 22

N2: turns of the inner solenoid

A_2: area of the inner solenoid

l: length of the solenoids = 25.0cm=0.25m

by replacing all these values you obtain:

M=(4\pi*10^{-7}T/A)(340)(22)\frac{3.14*10^{-4}m^2}{0.25m}=1.18*10^{-5}H

the mutual inductance is 1.18*10^{-5}H

c) the emf induced can be computed by using the mutual inductance and the change in the current of the inner solenoid:

\epsilon_1=M\frac{dI_2}{dt}

by replacing you obtain:

\epsilon_1=(1.18*10^{-5}H)(1700A/s)=0.02V=20mV

the emf is 20mV

What is the mass of a stone moving at a speed of 15 meters/second and having a momentum of 7.5 kilogram - meters / seconds
Elanso [62]

Answer:

0.5 kg

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is defined as

p = mv

where

m is the mass

v is the velocity

In this problem we have,

v = 15 m/s is the velocity of the stone

p = 7.5 kg m/s is the momentum

Solving for m, we can find the mass of the stone:

m=\frac{p}{v}=\frac{7.5 kg m/s}{15 m/s}=0.5 kg

According to the law of conservation of energy, mechanical energy can be changed to heat energy.
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

The answer to this question is given below in this explanation section.

Explanation:

                     " law of conservation of energy"

The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed only converted from one form of energy into another.This mean that a system always has a same account of a energy,unless it is added from the outside.This is particularly confusing in the case of non conversation forces,where energy is converted from ,mechanical energy into thermal energy.but the overall energy does remain the same.The only way to use energy is to transform energy from one form to another.

The amount of energy in any system than it is determined by the following equation.

Ut=Ui +W+Q

  • Ut is the total internal energy of a system.
  • Ui is the initial internal energy of a system.
  • W is the work done by or on the system.
  • Q is the heat added to or removed by the system.

It is also possible to determined the change in internal energy of the system using the equation.

ΔU=W+Q

The mechanical energy of a system increases provided their is no loss of energy due to friction.The energy would transform to kinetic energy when the speed is increasing.Te mechanical energy of a system remain constant provided their is no loss of energy due to friction.

The law of conversation of energy which say that in a closed system total energy is conserved that is it constant.

KE1 + PE1=KE2+PE2
