Which has more gravitaatoinal potental energy: a bird on the ground or the same bird in the tree? why?

The same bird on the tree has more gravitational potential energy. This is because it is at a higher distance from the ground as it is on the tree, than when it is on the ground.

Considering also the formula for Gravitational Potential Energy GPE = mgh

For the bird on the ground, h =0,  therefore GPE = m*9.8*0 = 0

For that on the tree = mgh = m*9.8*h

Of course the one on the tree has a value greater than zero.

A bumper cart has a mass of 200 kg and has a protective bumper around it that behaves like a spring. The spring constant is 5000
34kurt
Part A:
For this part we’re assuming all the kinetic energy of the moving bumper car is converted into elastic potential energy in the spring since the car is brought to rest. Therefore you can find the total kinetic energy to get your answer:

KE = ½ mv^2
KE = ½ (200)(8)^2
KE = 6400 J

Part B:
Now you can use Hooke’s law to find the force:

F = kx
F = (5000)(0.2)
F = 1000 N

Newer telephone circuits, built during the last decade, offer higher quality because they were built using analog transmission.
hammer [34]

Answer:

Well, newer telephone circuits built during the last decade are based on the digital transmission, not on the analog transmission. So it's the digital transmission circuit that has made the higher quality. Digital circuits converts the voice signals into the binary codes which is then translated again into the voice signal at the receiving end.

The answer is false.

A piece of wood has a mass of 25g and a volume of <br> 10cm3 What is its density?
Tasya [4]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 2.5 g/cm³</h3>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  \frac{mass}{volume}  \\

From the question we have

density =  \frac{25}{10}  =  \frac{5}{2}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>2.5 g/cm³</h3>

Hope this helps you

What effects do coil of wire on a compass after it has been connected to a battery​
Yanka [14]

Explanation:

The compass needle moved when the wire was connected to the battery. The important point here is that the needle is affected by the wire only when both ends of the wire are connected to the battery because only at this time is current flowing through the circuit.

How much work would a child do while puling a 12-kg wagon a distance of 3m with a 22 N force directed 30 degrees with respect to
Alika [10]

Answer:

The work done will be 57.15 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 12 kg

Distance = 3 m

Force = 22 N

Angle = 30°

We need to calculate the work done  

The work done is defined as,

W = Fd\cos\theta

Where, F = force

d = displacement

Put the value into the formula

W=22\times3\times\cos30^{\circ}

W=22\times3\times\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

W = 57.15\ J

Hence, The work done will be 57.15 J
