Answer: D.) 39,200 J

Via the equation of potential energy PE = mgh where m is mass, g is the average gravity on earth and h is the height.  In this case m = 400 kg, g = 9.8, h = 10 m thus:

P.E.=(400kg)(9.8\frac{m}{s^2} )(10m)=39,200 J

P.E.= 39,200 Joules

A 10-kg dog is running with a speed of 5.0 m/s. what is the minimum work required to stop the dog in 2.40 s?
ankoles [38]
Given required solution

M=10kg W=? W=Fd
v=5.0m/s F=mg
t=2.40s =10*10=100N
S=VT
=5m/s*2.4s
=12m
so W=12*100
W=1200J

How does a mirror affect the path of light?
yulyashka [42]

Light rays change direction when they hit a mirror. The phenomenon is known as reflection. Light rays travels in a straight light. They strike the surface of the mirror at a particular angle called incident angle. It is the angle between the ray and normal at the point of contact. The rays leaves the surface making the same angle with the normal called reflection angle but in different direction.

Estimate the wavelength corresponding to maximum emission from each of the following surfaces: the sun, a tungsten filament at 2
igomit [66]

Answer

Applying Wein's displacement

\lamda_{max}\ T = 2898 \mu_mK

1) for sun T = 5800 K

      \lambda_{max} = \dfrac{2898}{5800}

      \lambda_{max} = 0.5 \mu_m

2) for tungsten T = 2500 K

      \lambda_{max} = \dfrac{2898}{2500}

      \lambda_{max} = 1.16 \mu_m

3) for heated metal T = 1500 K

      \lambda_{max} = \dfrac{2898}{1500}

      \lambda_{max} = 1.93 \mu_m

4) for human skin T = 305 K

      \lambda_{max} = \dfrac{2898}{305}

      \lambda_{max} = 9.50 \mu_m

5)  for cryogenically cooled metal T = 60 K

      \lambda_{max} = \dfrac{2898}{60}

      \lambda_{max} = 48.3 \mu_m

range of different spectrum

UV ----0.01-0.4

visible----0.4-0.7

infrared------0.7-100

for sun T = 5800

λ              0.01           0.4               0.7                 100

λT             58           2320            4060             5.8 x 10⁵

F                0             0.125             0.491                1

fractions

for UV = 0.125  

for visible = 0.441-0.125 = 0.366

for infrared = 1 -0.491 = 0.509
