Let's assume that ground level is the height 0 meters. The change in potential energy is going to be gravitational potential energy, which is given by PE=mgh.
ΔPE=mgh-mgy
=mg(h-y)
=50(28-0)
=1400 J

Please I need help! This is the last question I need for this assignment!
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

When the same amount of heat is added to cold sand and cold water, the temperature change of sand will be higher because of its lower specific heat capacity.

What is specific heat capacity?

Specific heat capacity is the quantity

of heat required to raise a unit mass of

a substance by 1 kelvin.

Specific heat capacity of water and sand

{<em>refer to the above attachment}</em>

Δθ = Q/mc

Thus, for an equal mass of water and sand, when the same amount of heat is added to cold sand and cold water, the temperature change of sand will be higher because of its lower specific heat capacity.

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

A) True, B) False, C) False  and  D) false

Explanation:

Let's solve the problem using the law of conservation of energy to know if the statements are true or false

Let's look for mechanical energy

Initial

     Emo = Ke = ½ k Dx2

Final

     Em1= ½ m v12

     Emo = Em1

     ½ k Δx2 = ½ m v₁²

    v₁² = k / m Δx²

    v₁ = √ k/m   Δx

Now let's calculate the speed when it falls

   Vfy² = Voy² - 2gy

   Vfy² = - 2gy

   Vf² = v₁² + vfy²

A) True     v₁ = A Δx

.B) False. As there is no rubbing the mechanical energy conserves

.C) False the velocity is proportional to the square root of the height

     v2y = v2 √2

. D) false promotional compression speed
