Answer:

The answer to your question is:      Ep = 14715 Joules

Explanation:

Data

mass = 50 kg

Potential energy = ?

height = 30 m

g = 9.81 m/s²

Equation

                Ep = mgh

Substitution

                     Ep = (50)(9.81)(30)

                     Ep = 14715 Joules

How does the wavelength of a wave change when frequency decreases? when frequency increases?
Law Incorporation [45]

When the frequency decreases the wavelength is further apart. When it increases its closer together. Think about a flat line when the frequency is low the wavelengths are wider. When its a high frequency the squiggly lines on the moniter are taller and thinner so the wavelengths are not as wide and not that far from each other depending on how high the frequency is.

A war wolf is a device used during the middle ages to assault fortifications with large rocks. A simple trebuchet is constructed
Katarina [22]

Answer:v=41.23 m/s

Explanation:

Given

mass of heavy object m_1=52 kg

distance of m_1 from the axle r_1=14 cm

mass of rock m_2=123 gm

Length of rod =4.1 m

distance of m_2 from axle r_2=4.1-0.14=3.96 m

Net torque acting is

T_{net}=m_1gr_1-m_2gr_2

T_{net}=52\times 0.14\times g-0.123\times 3.96\times g

T_{net}=6.793\times 9.8

T_{net}=66.57 N-m

Work done by T_{net} is converted to rock kinetic Energy

thus

T_{net}\times \theta =\frac{mv^2}{2}

Where \theta =angle\ turned =\frac{\pi }{2}

v= velocity\ at\ launch

66.57\times \frac{\pi }{2}=\frac{0.123\times v^2}{2}

v^2=66.57\times \pi

v=\sqrt{1700.511}

v=41.23 m/s

Atmosphere

Atmospheric gas from prehistoric eras is found trapped in glaciers in the form of bubbles. These gas bubbles are the basis of studying ice cores as they provide us with accurate estimates of the conditions of past climates. The bubbles allow us to determine the composition of atmospheric air, such as the carbon dioxide and methane concentrations, as well as allow us to determine air temperatures in the past.
