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

In which of the two situations described is more energy transferred?
Furkat [3]

Answer:

More energy is transferred in situation A

Explanation:

Each of the situations are analyzed as follows;

Situation A

The temperature of the cup of hot chocolate = 40 °C

The temperature of the interior of the freezer in which the chocolate is placed = -20 °C

We note that at 0°C, the water in the chocolate freezes

The energy transferred by the chocolate to the freezer before freezing is given approximately as follows;

E₁ = m×c₁×ΔT₁

Where;

m = The mass of the chocolate

c₁ = The specific heat capacity of water = 4.184 kJ/(kg·K)

ΔT₁ = The change in temperature from 40 °C to 0°C

Therefore, we have;

E₁ = m×4.184×(40 - 0) = 167.360·m kJ

The heat the coffee gives to turn to ice is given as follows;

E₂ = m·H_f

Where;

H_f = The latent heat of fusion = 334 kJ/kg

∴ E₂ = m × 334 kJ/kg = 334·m kJ

The heat required to cool the frozen ice to -20 °C is given as follows;

E₃ = m·c₂·ΔT₂

Where;

c₂ = The specific heat capacity of ice = 2.108 kJ/(kg·K)

Therefore, we have;

E₃ = m × 2.108 ×(0 - (-20)) = 42.16

E₃ = 42.16·m kJ/(kg·K)

The total heat transferred = (167.360 + 334 + 42.16)·m kJ/(kg·K) = 543.52·m kJ/(kg·K)

Situation B

The temperature of the cup of hot chocolate = 90 °C

The temperature of the room in which the chocolate is placed = 25 °C

The heat transferred by the hot cup of coffee, E, is given as follows;

E = m×4.184×(90 - 25) = 271.96

∴ E = 271.96 kJ/(kg·K)

Therefore, the total heat transferred in situation A is approximately twice the heat transferred in situation B and is therefore more than the heat transferred in situation B

Energy transferred in situation A = 543.52 kJ/(kg·K)

Energy transferred in situation B = 271.96 kJ/(kg·K)

Energy transferred in situation A ≈ 2 × Energy transferred in situation B

∴ Energy transferred in situation A > Energy transferred in situation B.

How long will the ball be in the air if the cliff is 120 m tall and the ball falls to the base of the cliff?
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

4.95s≈5s

Use equation :

h=G*t²/2

h=120m ----hight of cliff

G=9.81m/s²

t=?

-----------------------

h=G*t²/2

120m=9.81m/s²*t²/2

240m=9.81m/s²*t²

t²=240m/ 9.81m/s²

t²=24.46s

t=√24.46s²

t=4.95 s≈5s
