Suppose a 4000 kg elephant is hoisted 20m above Earth's surface. What will be the elephant's gravitational potential energy?

1 answer:

8 0

We know, U = m * g * h
U = 4000 * 9.8 * 20
U = 784000 J

In short, Your Answer would be: 784000 J or 784 KJ

Hope this helps!

a trcuk weighs four times as much as a stationary car. if teh truck coasts into the car at 12 km/s and they stick toegther, what

Andrews [41]

Answer:

v=9.6 km/s

Explanation:

Given that

The mass of the car = m

The mass of the truck = 4 m

The velocity of the truck ,u= 12 km/s

The final velocity when they stick = v

If there is no any external force on the system then the total linear momentum of the system will be conserve.

Pi = Pf

m x 0 + 4 m x 12 = (m + 4 m) x v

0 + 48 m = 5 m v

5 v = 48

$v=\dfrac{48}{5}\ km/s$

v=9.6 km/s

Therefore the final velocity will be 9.6 km/s.

(1) friction is the force resisting the relative motion of solid surfaces , fluid layers and material elements sliding against each other.
(2) gravity is a science fiction .
(3) Resistance ::: is a property of a conductor by which the passage of current is opposed causing electric energy to be transformed into heat .
(4) viscosity is the quantity that describes a fluid.
