Answer: 6.12 kg

Explanation:

Since Mass of ball = ? (let the unknown value be Z)

Acceleration due to gravity, g= 9.8m/s^2

Height, h = 1.5 metres

Gravitational potential energy GPE = 90J

Gravitational potential energy depends on the weight of the ball, the action of gravity and height.

Thus, GPE = Mass m x Acceleration due to gravity g x Height h

90J = Z x 9.8m/s^2 x 1.5m

90 = Z x 14.7

Z = 90/14.7

Z = 6.12 kg

Thus, the bowling ball weigh 6.12 kilograms

A garage door opener has a power rating of 350 watts.
Lelechka [254]
We Know, Power = Energy/Time
Substitute the known value. which is P = 350 watt, & T = 30 sec
350 = E/30 
E = 350 * 30
E = 1050 Joules.

So, your answer is 1050 Joules.
Hope this helps! Keep studying!

What if The rotational speed of Earth increased ?
dsp73

Answer:

This would happen.

Explanation:

If the earth’s rotation speed increases then the weight of the body decreases. This is because you see a moving body on the rotating earth’s surface itself is in the reference frame. So when the earth rotates, the centripetal force acts towards the centre of rotation.
