The things that determine the amount of an object's gravitational potential energy are ...

-- mass of the object

-- gravitational acceleration in the place where the object is

-- height of the object above the ground or the floor

A). <em>a slice of bread; </em> No.  It's still a slice of bread even if it's on the ground.

B. <em>A compressed spring; </em> No.  It's still a compressed spring even if it's on the ground.

C. <em>An apple on a tree</em>; <em>Yes !</em>  It can't be an apple on a tree if it's on the ground.  

D. <em>A stretched bow string</em>; <em>No.</em>  It's still a stretched bowstring even if it's on the ground.

You kick a ball with a speed of 14 m/s at an angle of 51°. How far away does the ball land?
In-s [12.5K]
-- The vertical component of the ball's velocity is 14 sin(<span>51°) = 10.88 m/s

-- The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s².

-- The ball rises for 10.88/9.8 seconds, then stops rising, and drops for the
same amount of time before it hits the ground.

-- Altogether, the ball is in the air for (2 x 10.88)/(9.8) = 2.22 seconds
==================================

-- The horizontal component of the ball's velocity is  14 cos(</span><span>51°) = 8.81 m/s

-- At this speed, it covers a horizontal distance of (8.81) x (2.22) = <em><u>19.56 meters</u></em>
before it hits the ground.


As usual when we're discussing this stuff, we completely ignore air resistance.

Find the moment of inertia about each of the following axes for a rod that is 0.360 {cm} in diameter and 1.70 {m} long, with a m
mamaluj [8]

The complete question is;

Find the moment of inertia about each of the following axes for a rod that is 0.36 cm in diameter and 1.70m long, with a mass of 5.00 × 10 ^(−2) kg.

A) About an axis perpendicular to the rod and passing through its center in kg.m²

B) About an axis perpendicular to the rod and passing through one end in kg.m²

C) About an axis along the length of the rod in kg.m²

Answer:

A) I = 0.012 kg.m²

B) I = 0.048 kg.m²

C) I = 8.1 × 10^(-8) kg.m²

Explanation:

We are given;

Diameter = 0.36 cm = 0.36 × 10^(−2) m

Length; L = 1.7m

Mass;m = 5 × 10^(−2) kg

A) For an axis perpendicular to the rod and passing through its center, the formula for the moment of inertia is;

I = mL²/12

I = (5 × 10^(−2) × 1.7²)/12

I = 0.012 kg.m²

B) For an axis perpendicular to the rod and passing through one end, the formula for the moment of inertia is;

I = mL²/3

So,

I = (5 × 10^(−2) × 1.7²)/3

I = 0.048 kg.m²

C) For an axis along the length of the rod, the formula for the moment of inertia is; I = mr²/2

We have diameter = 0.36 × 10^(−2) m, thus radius;r = (0.36 × 10^(−2))/2 = 0.18 × 10^(−2) m

I = (5 × 10^(−2) × (0.18 × 10^(−2))^2)/2

I = 8.1 × 10^(-8) kg.m²

A manufacturer claims its cleanser works twice as fast as any other. Could test be performed to support the claim? Explain
lora16 [44]

Yes, a test could be performed to support the claim.

 

Hypothesis: The claim that a manufacturer’s cleanser works twice as fast as any other cleanser.

 

So, based from this hypothesis, we can perform the following tests:

We assign Cleanser A to the manufacturer that claims that their cleanser works twice as fast as any other cleanser and Cleanser B to the cleanser to be compared with.

 

1.       Get two tiles and put the same amount of stain on them.

2.       Apply Cleanser A on the first tile and Cleanser B on the second tile.

3.       Apply the same amount of force in removing the stains on both tiles

4.       Record the amount of time it takes to remove the stains on each tile.

It has something to do with orbitals so I suggest you study about molecular geometry of a compound/substance firstIt's the way a substance's atoms fit together, being pulled and pushed from all sides equally. exists in metallic bonds <span>if a substance is said to be magnetic, it is simply attracted by a magnet. if it is paramagnetic, it is repelled by a magnet.

2.</span>The magnetic field will be perpendicular to the electric field and vice versa<span> An electric field is the area which surrounds an electric charge within which it is capable of exerting a perceptible force on another electric charge. A magnetic field is the area of force surrounding a magnetic pole, or a current flowing through a conductor, in which there is a magnetic flux. A magnetic field can be produced when an electric current is passed through an electric circuit wound in a helix or solenoid. The relationship that exists between an electric field and a magnetic field is one of electromagnetic interaction as a consequence of associating elementary particles. The electrostatic force between charged particles is an example of this relationship.</span>
