A rock with a mass of 6.1 kg falls 1.5 m. What potential energy does it have before the fall?

Physics
1 answer:
denpristay [2]3 years ago
6 0

89.67J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of rock = 6.1kg

Height of fall = 1.5m

Unknown:

Potential energy = ?

Solution:

The potential energy is the energy at rest or due to the position of a body.

Potential energy is mathematically expressed as;

  Potential energy = mgh

m is the mass of the rock

g is the acceleration due to gravity of the rock

h is the height of the rock

   Potential energy = 6.1 x 9.8 x 1.5 = 89.67J

Fused quartz possesses an exceptionally low coefficient of linear expansion, 5.50 × 10 − 7 ( ∘ C ) − 1 . Suppose a bar of fused
EastWind [94]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to thermal linear expansion. Mathematically this concept can be expressed under the Equation:

\Delta L = L_0 \alpha \Delta T

Where,

L_0 = Initial Length

\alpha =Thermal Expanssion constant

\Delta T =Change in Lenght

Our values are given as

L_0 = 2.99m

\alpha = 5.50*10^{-7} ( \∘C )^{-1}

\Delta T = T_2-T_1 = 213-20

Replacing at our equation we have,

\Delta L = L_0 \alpha \Delta T

\Delta L = (2.99) (5.5 x 10^{-7}) (213 - 20)

\Delta L = 0.317*10^{-3}m\approx 0.317mm

Therefore the expantion of the bar is 0.317mm

Famed stunt pilot, Cleonvia Thread, pulls out rapidly from a dive. He is traveling at 222 mi/h at the bottom of his trajectory,
Simora [160]

Answer:

0.39 m/s²

Explanation:

From the question,

a = v²/r.................... Equation 1

Where v = velocity, r = radius.

Given: v = 222 mi/h = (222×0.44704) m/s = 9.83 m/s, r = 820 ft = (820×0.3048) m = 249.94 m.

Substitute thses values into equation 1

a = 9.83²/249.94

a = 96.63/249.94

a = 0.39 m/s²

Hence the  acceleration is 0.39 m/s²
