Assuming Luke has a mass of 90Kg how much potential energy does he have just as he leaves the plane 7620 meters up? Explain how

you know.
Physics
1 answer:
Bond [772]3 years ago
4 0

Answer : P = 6858 KJ

Explanation :

Mass of Luke, m = 90 Kg

Height, h = 7620 m

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 10\ m/s^2

Gravitational potential energy, P = m\times g\times h

So, P = 90\times 10\times 7620

P = 6858 KJ

Hence, the potential energy is 6858 KJ.

An aluminum cylinder weighing 30 N, 6 cm in diameter and 40 cm long, is falling concentrically through a long vertical sleeve of
Georgia [21]

Answer: Velocity terminal = 0.093m/s

Explanation:

1. We start by evaluating the gap distance between the two cylinders as h = R(sleeve) - R(cylinder)

= (0.0604/2 - 0.06/2)m

= 2×10^-4

Surface are of the cylinder in the drop, which is required in order to evaluate the shearing stress can be expressed as A(cylinder) = π.d.L

= (π×0.06×0.4)m²

= 0.075m²

Since the force of the cylinder's weight is going to balance the shearing force on the walls, we can express the next equation and derive terminal velocity from it.

Shearing stress = u×V.terminal/h = 0.86×V/0.0002

= 4300Vterminal

Therefore, Fw = shearing stress × A

30N = 4300Vterminal × 0.075

V. terminal = 30/4300 m.s

V. terminal = 0.093m/s

A mass of 5 kg of saturated water vapor at 150 kPa is heated at constant pressure until the temperature reaches 200°C. Calculate
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

The work done by the steam is 213 kJ.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 5 kg

Pressure = 150 kPa

Temperature = 200°C

We need to calculate the specific volume

Using formula of work done

W=Pm\DeltaV

W=Pm(\dfrac{RT_{1}}{P_{atm}}-\dfrac{RT_{2}}{P_{atm}}

W=\dfrac{PmR}{P_{atm}}(T_{2}-T_{1})

Where,R = gas constant

T = temperature

P = pressure

P_{atm}=Atmosphere pressure

m = mass

Put the value into the formula

W=\dfrac{150\times10^{3}\times5\times287.05}{1.01\times10^{5}}\times(473-373)

W=213\ kJ

Hence, The work done by the steam is 213 kJ.

A newspaper turns yellow in sunlight. Is this a physical or chemical change?
LekaFEV [45]
It is a chemical change. I always think of a chemical/physical change as if you could  reverse it back as it started off, for example if you stepped on a can you can reverse the can back probably not exactly like it was before but you can still reverse it so this would be a physical change, and if you baked a pizza you could not reverse the dough and everything else back.
