A cinder block is sitting on a platform 20m high. It weighs 79N.

Physics
1 answer:
zubka84 [21]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A cinder block is stationary it means it only has potential energy.

Explanation:

  • The cinder block is not moving so it has been storing the potential energy.
  • We can find the potential energy of the block by using the formula as:

                         Potential energy (PE) = mgh

where,

m= mass of the block

g= acceleration due to gravity

h= height of the block

Now,

                         PE= 79 × 20 J

                   or, PE = 1580 J

The energy stored by the block as potential energy is 1580 J.

Rashid [163]

Answer:

Explanation:

Inital KE = (1/2) m v^2 = (1/2) * 1500 * 50^2 = 1,875,000 J  

Final KE = (1/2) * 1500 * 100^2 = 7,500,000 J  

But  ,

4 * 1875000 = 7500000

so the KE has increased by 4 times.

An electron in an atom's orbital shell, labeled X in the model below, released enough energy to move to a different orbital shel
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

Lower energy shell which will be nearer to the nucleus.

Explanation:

When electron move from one energy level to another, an electron must gain or lose just the right amount of energy.

When atoms releases energy, electrons move into lower energy levels.  The electrons in the shells aways from the nucleus have more energy as compared to the electrons in the nearer shells.

Electrons with the lowest energy are found closest to the nucleus, where the attractive force of the positively charged nucleus is the greatest. Electrons that have higher energy are found further away
