What is the difference between kinetic and gravitacional energy?

Physics

Answer:

In physics, the kinetic energy (KE) of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion

In classical mechanics, the gravitational potential at a location is equal to the work (energy transferred) per unit mass that would be needed to move an object to that location from a fixed reference location. It is analogous to the electric potential with mass playing the role of charge. The reference location, where the potential is zero, is by convention infinitely far away from any mass, resulting in a negative potential at any finite distance.

In mathematics, the gravitational potential is also known as the Newtonian potential and is fundamental in the study of potential theory. It may also be used for solving the electrostatic and magnetostatic fields generated by uniformly charged or polarized ellipsoidal bodies

Suppose we hang a heavy ball with a mass 13 kg (so the weight is ) from a steel wire 3.9 m long that is 3.1 mm in diameter (radi
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

1.635×10^-3m

Explanation:

Young modulus is the ratio of the tensile stress of a material to its tensile strain.

Young modulus = Tensile stress/tensile strain

Tensile stress = Force/Area

Given force = 130N

Area = Πr² = Π×(1.55×10^-3)²

Area = 4.87×10^-6m²

Tensile stress = 130/4.87×10^-6 = 8.39×10^7N/m²

Tensile strain = extension/original length

Tensile strain = e/3.9

Substituting in the young modulus formula given young modulus to be 2×10¹¹N/m²

2×10¹¹N/m² = 8.39×10^7/{e/3.9)}

2×10¹¹ = (8.39×10^7×3.9)/e

2×10¹¹e = 3.27×10^8

e = 3.27×10^8/2×10¹¹

e = 1.635×10^-3m

The stretch of the steel wire will be

1.635×10^-3m

Alicia can row 6 miles downstream in the same time it takes her to row 4 miles upstream. She rows downstream 3 miles/hour faster
m_a_m_a [10]
Let us assume the upstream rowing rate of Alicia = x
Let us assume the downstream rowing rate of Alicia = y
We already know that
Travelling time = Distance traveled/rowing rate
Then
6/(x + 3) = 4/x
6x = 4x + 12
6x - 4x = 12
2x = 12
x = 6
Then
Rowing rate of Alicia going upstream = 6 miles per hour
Rowing rate of Alicia going downstream = 9 miles per hour.

andreyandreev [35.5K]

The value of g at sea level is 9.81 ms^-2.

The boy's mass is constant wherever he is in the universe but his weight will depend on the strength gravity where he is.

By proportion its value on the mountain peak  is (360 /400) * 9.81

= 0.9 * 9.81 = 8.83  ms^-2  to nearest hundredth,  (answer).
