Total mechanical energy = kinetic energy + potential energy
E = KE + PE
E = ½mv² + mgh
E = ½(0.1 kg)(2 m/s)² + (0.1 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(1.5 m)
E = 0.2 J + 1.47 J
E = 1.67 J

We know that:
EM=Epg+Ek
So:
Epg=mgh
Epg=0,1kg*9,8m/s²*1,5m
Epg=1,47J
Now:
Ek=1/2mv²
Ek=1/2(0,1kg)(2m/s)²
Ek=0,2J
That give us:
EM=1,47J*0,2J
EM=1,67J

Goryan [66]

Answer:

d- Earth revolves around the sun.

Explanation:

Earth rotation can be defined as the amount of time taken by planet earth to complete its spinning movement on its axis.

This ultimately implies that, the rotation of earth refers to the time taken by earth to rotate once on its axis. One spinning movement of the earth on its axis takes approximately 24 hours to complete with respect to the sun.

On the other hand, earth revolution can be defined as a complete trip along a path around the sun. This path is known as an orbit and it typically takes the Earth 365¼ days to complete it's journey around the Sun.

When a constellation (stars) changes its position in the sky, at the same time of the evening and over a period of several weeks; it ultimately implies or is an evidence that Earth revolves around the sun.

Travels 11,000 feet along a dark desert highway if the car averages 84 mph find the amount of time to cover this distance
laila [671]

The time taken by traveler to cover the distance is,

t=\frac{d}{v}

Substitute the known values,

\begin{gathered} t=\frac{(11000\text{ ft)}}{(84\text{ mph)(}\frac{1.46667\text{ ft/s}}{1\text{ mph}})_{}} \\ \approx89.3\text{ s} \end{gathered}

Therefore, the time taken by traveler to cover the distance is 89.3 s.

A 110 V power line is protected by a 15 A fuse. What is the maximum number of 400 W lamps that can be simultaneously operated in
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Total number of lamps will be 4            

Explanation:

We have given power of the lamp W = 400 watt

Potential difference across the lamp V=110 volt

We know that power is equal to P=VI

So 400=110\times I

I=3.636A

Total current is given 15 A

As it is given that lamps are connected in parallel so total current is the sum of current through each lamp

So number of lamp will be n=\frac{15}{3.636}=4.125

As the lamp can not be in negative

So total number of lamps will be 4

A box has the dimensions of 50 cm × 30 cm × 15 cm, weighs 150 N, and is to be
nadezda [96]

The surface can only withstand a pressure Face A (50cm × 30cm) and Face C (50cm × 15cm) as the surface can only withstand a pressure of 0.25 N/cm³.

<h3>What is pressure?</h3>

The physical force used to apply pressure to an object is defined as such. Per square inch of an object, a force is applied perpendicularly to its surface. For pressure, the fundamental formula is F/A. (Force per unit area). The Pascal is the unit of pressure (Pa).

The four different types of pressure are absolute, atmospheric, differential, and gauge pressure. Have you ever noticed that when you use a straw to drink something, the air actually gets suked out? In reality, you're applying "Pressure" as you drink the beverage.

A box has the dimensions of 50 cm × 30 cm × 15 cm

Let each face be A, B and C

The weight of the box = 150 N

Formula for pressure is

P = F/A

To find out which face of the box can withstand a pressure of 0.25 N/cm

we need find the area of each face and find its pleasure

Face A = 50 cm × 30 cm

Area A = l × b

            = 50 × 30

            = 1500 cm²

Pressure A = 150/1500

                  = 0.1 N/cm³

                    0.25 > 0.1

The surface can definitively withstand the pressure of Face A

Face B = 30 cm × 15 cm

Area A = l × b

            = 30 × 15

            = 450 cm²

Pressure A = 150/450

                  = 0.3 N/cm³

                    0.25 < 0.3

The surface could not withstand the pressure of Face B

Face C = 50 cm × 15 cm

Area A = l × b

            = 50 × 15

            = 750 cm²

Pressure A = 150/750

                  = 0.2 N/cm³

                    0.25 > 0.2

The surface can definitively withstand the pressure of Face C

Thus, The surface can only withstand a pressure Face A (50cm × 30cm) and Face C (50cm × 15cm) as the surface can only withstand a pressure of 0.25 N/cm³.
