What is potential energy​

Physics
2 answers:
Mekhanik [1.2K]3 years ago
7 0
The energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position relative to others, stresses within itself, electric charge, and other factors.

Example: A roller coaster. When you are going up the energy that is accumulating is potential energy and when you go down the energy that is release is kinetic energy

Answer:

The potential energy is the energy possessed by the body by the position relative to other things. It is also known as stored energy

The formula is: P.E = mgh

P.E = mass * gravitational energy * height

25. The best description of scissor is:
ioda

Answer:

c.

Explanation:

From the options provided the best description of scissor is that scissors helps to scrap things down. This is the main purpose of scissors, to cut things, and by doing so you are breaking up a larger object into smaller and more manageable scraps. We can get rid of the other options because scissors are made of metal and therefore not soft and are not necessarily dull since they need to be sharp to fulfill their purpose. Although a pair of scissors has two holes it is not necessarily the best description of it.

The electrostatic force between the two ions is 2.9\cdot 10^{-10} N

Explanation:

The electrostatic force between two charged particle is given by Coulomb's law:

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where

k=8.99\cdot 10^9 Nm^{-2}C^{-2} is the Coulomb's constant

q_1, q_2 are the two charges

r is the separation between the two charges

In this problem, the ion of sodium has a charge of

q_1 = +e = +1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C

while the ion of chlorine has a charge of

q_2 = -e = -1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C

And the distance between the two ions is

r=282 pm = 282\cdot 10^{-12} m

Substituting, we find the electrostatic force between the two ions:

F=(8.99\cdot 10^9) \frac{(1.6\cdot 10^{-19})(-1.6\cdot 10^{-19})}{(282\cdot 10^{-12})^2}=-2.9\cdot 10^{-10} N

where the negative sign simply means that the force is attractive, since the two ions have opposite charge.

In a game of egg-toss, you and a partner are throwing an egg back and forth trying not to break it. Given your knowledge of mome
lutik1710 [3]
F=dP/dt.  So you want the momentum to change as slowly as possible in time to minimize the force.  So as you catch the egg, let your hand move backward with it for awhile, slowly bringing it to a stop.  If you hold your hand steady when you catch it the force due to the impact could break it.
