A 5 kg rock is raised 28 m above the ground level. What is the change in its potential energy?

Physics

marin [14]3 years ago
3 0
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

An igneous intrusion whose boundaries lie parallel to the layering in the surrounding country rock is considered to be:
ikadub [295]
<span>...a concordant intrusion. In geology, "concordant" means the same as "sill" -- or, an intrusion that has gotten in between older layers of rock (or even beds of volcanic lava). An intrusion with boundaries parallel to layering in surrounding rocks suggests this, meaning it is considered to be a concordant intrusion.</span>

blagie [28]
<span>If Shelly rolls ball A in the positive x direction with a velocity of 7.5 meters/second, and It hits stationary ball B and they undergo elastic collision, thus the two balls have different masses, then the following statement which is true is the statement that stated that there was no y-momentum initially.</span>

Describe a life cycle of a star
vagabundo [1.1K]
Planetary Nebula are the outer layers of a star that are lost when the star changes from a red giant to a white dwarf. A star is a luminous globe of gas producing its own heat and light by nuclear reactions (nuclear fusion). They are born from nebulae and consist mostly of hydrogen and helium gas. Is this what you needed?

Explain why the model of this chemical reaction obeys the Law of Conservation of Matter. A) because there are the same number of
Sav [38]

Answer:

(A) because there are the same number of atoms of each element shown on both sides

Explanation:

The Law of conservation of mass says that in a reaction the matter of the products should be equivalent to the matter of the reactants and the mass of the system should remain constant over time.

In a chemical reaction, while atoms bond is breaking of 1 substance than new bonds are formed in another substance and new substances are formed. However, in the overall reaction, they keep the same elements, no new elements can go and come from the outside. For example:

HCl + NaOH -----> NaCl + H2O

In this reaction, on both sides the same number of atoms of each element are present.

Humans experience the longest visible electromagnetic waves as
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Red light

Explanation:

The electromagnetic spectrum classifies all the electromagnetic waves according to their wavelength/frequency. In order from shortest to longest wavelength, we have

Gamma rays

X rays

Ultraviolet

Visible light

Infrared

Microwaves

Radio waves

All of these waves are invisible to human eye, except for the "visible light" part of the spectrum. Waves in the visible light part are perceived by human as different colors, depending on their wavelength. More specifically, they appear as follows:

Violet (380-450 nm)

Blue (450-495 nm)

Green (495-570 nm)

Yellow (570-590 nm)

Orange (590-620 nm)

Red (620-750 nm)

So we see that the longest electromagnetic wave in the visible light part of the spectrum corresponds to red light.
