Gravitational potential energy =
(mass) x (gravity) x (height)
= (5.8 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (2.5 m)
= 142.1 Joules (C)
Answer:
50 N.
Explanation:
On top of a horizontal surface, the normal force acting on an object is equivalent to the force of gravity acting on the object. That is:

The mass of the block is 5 kg and the given force due to gravity is 10 N/kg. Substitute and evaluate:

In conclusion, the normal force acting on the block is 50 N.
Answer:
Magnitude = 3.64 ×
စ = 43.9°
Explanation:
given data
ship to travel = 1.7 ×
kilometers
turn = 70°
travel an additional = 2.7 ×
kilometers
solution
we will consider here
Px = 1.7 ×
Py = 0
Qx =2.7 ×
cos(70)
Qy= 2.7 ×
sin(70)
so that
Hx = Px + Qx ............1
Hx = 2.62 ×
and
Hy = Py + Qy ..........2
Hy = 2.53 ×
so Magnitude = 
Magnitude = 3.64 ×
so direction will be
tan စ = Hy ÷ Hx ......................3
tan စ =
tan စ = 0.9656
စ = 43.9°
Answer:
According to Einstein's famous equation, matter can convert into energy (and viceversa) as follows:

where
E is the energy
m is the mass
c is the speed of light (
)
Given the huge value of
, we see that even a tiny amount of matter is able to release a huge amount of energy, when the whole mass is converted into energy. This is precisely what happens in nuclear reactions. For example, in the process of nuclear fusion (that occurs in the core of the stars), two light nuclei fuse together into a heavier nucleus. The mass of the final nucleus is lower than the total mass of the initial nuclei, so part of the mass has been converted into energy according to the equation above: this is why the amount of energy produced by stars is so big.
