Answer:

5.292 Joules

Explanation:

Hello

applying the law of the conservation of energy, and assuming that no energy is lost due to friction with the air, we can affirm that the energy that has just before the impact is the same energy that it has just before being released, that energy is due to height, mass and gravity and is defined by:

E_{g}=m*g*h\\\\now\\E_{p} =E_{g}=m*g*h\\E_{p}=m*g*h\\

Let

m=0.3kg\\g=9.8\frac{m}{s^{2} }\\ h=1.8\ m

pute the values into the equation

E_{p}=m*g*h\\E_{p}=0.3 kg*9.8\frac{m}{s^{2} }*1.8\m\\E_{p}=5.292\ Joules\\

Have a nice day.

Problem 21-40a:
Greeley [361]

Answer:

Part a)

\frac{F_e}{F_g} = 2.74 \times 10^{12}

Part b)

q = 3.37 \times 10^{-4} C

Explanation:

As we know that electric force on electric charge is given as

F = qE

here we have

q = 1.6 \times 10^{-19}C

E = 153 N/C

now force is given as

F = (1.6 \times 10^{-19})(153) = 2.45 \times 10^{-17} N

Gravitational force on electric charge near surface of earth is given as

F_g = mg

F_g = (9.1 \times 10^{-31})(9.81) = 8.93 \times 10^[-30} N

now the ratio of two forces is given as

\frac{F_e}{F_g} = \frac{2.45 \times 10^{-17}}{8.93 \times 10^{-30}}

\frac{F_e}{F_g} = 2.74 \times 10^{12}

Part b)

Now the ball is balanced by the electric force and the force of gravity on it

so here we have

F_g = qE

mg = qE

(5.25 \times 10^{-3})(9.81) = q(153)

here we have

q = 3.37 \times 10^{-4} C

5. Find the mass of a car that is traveling at a velocity of 35 m/s West.
sattari [20]

Answer:

m = 9795.9 kg

Explanation:

v = 35 m/s

KE = 6,000,000 J

Plug those values into the following equation:

KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}

6,000,000 J = (1/2)(35^2)m

---> m = 9795.9 kg

Newly discovered planet has twice the mass and three times the radius of the earth. What is the free-fall acceleration at its su
skad [1K]

Answer:

g_n=\dfrac{2}{9}g

Explanation:

M = Mass of Earth

G = Gravitational constant

R = Radius of Earth

The acceleration due to gravity on Earth is

g=\dfrac{GM}{R^2}

On new planet

g_n=\dfrac{G2M}{(3R)^2}\\\Rightarrow g_n=\dfrac{2GM}{9R^2}

Dividing the two equations we get

\dfrac{g_n}{g}=\dfrac{\dfrac{2GM}{9R^2}}{\dfrac{GM}{R^2}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{g_n}{g}=\dfrac{2}{9}\\\Rightarrow g_n=\dfrac{2}{9}g

The acceleration due to gravity on the other planet is g_n=\dfrac{2}{9}g
