Given:
weight=62 kgs
height= 12 m
gravity= 9.8
To find:
work done= mass*gravity*height
solution:
w=62*12*9.8
workdone=7291.2 J

A 1.1 kg ball is attached to a ceiling by a 2.16 m long string. The height of the room is 5.97 m . The acceleration of gravity i

nydimaria [60]

1. -23.2 J

The gravitational potential energy of the ball is given by

$U=mgh$

where

m = 1.1 kg is the mass of the ball

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

h is the height of the ball, relative to the reference point chosen

In this part of the problem, the reference point is the ceiling. So, the ball is located 2.16 m below the ceiling: therefore, the heigth is

h = -2.16 m

And the gravitational potential energy is

$U=(1.1 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(-2.16 m)=-23.2 J$

2. 41.1 J

Again, the gravitational potential energy of the ball is given by

$U=mgh$

In this part of the problem, the reference point is the floor.

The height of the ball relative to the floor is equal to the height of the floor minus the length of the string:

h = 5.97 m - 2.16 m = 3.81 m

And so the gravitational potential energy of the ball relative to the floor is

$U=(1.1 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(3.81 m)=41.1 J$

3. 0 J

As before, the gravitational potential energy of the ball is given by

$U=mgh$

Here the reference point is a point at the same elevation of the ball.

This means that the heigth of the ball relative to that point is zero:

h = 0 m

And so the gravitational potential energy is

$U=(1.1 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(0 m)=0 J$

suppose a car manufacturer tested its cars for front end collsion by hauling them up on a crane and dropping them from a certain

IRINA_888 [86]

Initial height: 66.5 m

Explanation:

The problem can be solved by using the principle of conservation of energy.

If we neglect air resistance, the total mechanical energy of the car is conserved during the fall, therefore we can write:

$K_i + U_i = K_f + U_f$

where :

$K_i = 0$ is the kinetic energy of the car at the top (it starts from rest)

$U_i = mgh$ is the gravitational potential energy of the car at the top, with:

m = the mass of the car

g = the acceleration of gravity

h = the heigth of the car

$K_f = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$ is the kinetic energy of the car just before hitting the ground, with

v = 130 km/h final speed of the car

$U_f = 0$ is the gravitational potential energy of the car at the bottom

Re-arranging the equation, we find

$mgh=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

and we have:

$g=9.8 m/s^2\\v = 130 km/h = 36.1 m/s$

Solving for h, we find the initial height of the car:

$h=\frac{v^2}{2g}=\frac{36.1^2}{2(9.8)}=66.5 m$

What change will always result in an increase in gravitational force between two objects

tekilochka [14]

The gravitational force between two object depends on their masses and on their distance.

Since the formula is

$F = G\frac{m_1m_2}{d^2}$

If the masses grow, the force also grows. But I'm assuming the two objects are fixed, so you can't enlarge their mass.

So, the only option remaining is to lower their distance: since it sits at the denominator, a smaller value of d results in a bigger value for F.

So, if you reduce the distance between two objects, the gravitational force between them will always result in an increase

Can someone help on this I'm really stuck

castortr0y [4]

Here, "Wavelength is same for both waves" it is the distance between two crests or two consecutive troughs, so, it is constant for both of them, you can easily figure it out.

In short, Your Answer would be "Wavelength"

Hope this helps!
