A 2.0 kg mass is lifted 4.0 m above the ground. find the change in gravitational energy

Physics

Answer:

78.4 J

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the object (m) = 2.0 kg

Height or displacement of the mass (h) = 4.0 m

Now, change in gravitational potential energy (ΔU) = ?

Change in gravitational potential energy of an object is the energy stored by the object when it is raised to some height above the reference ground level.

Change in gravitational potential energy of an object of mass 'm' raised to a height 'h' above the ground is given as:

\Delta U=mgh

Where, 'g' is the acceleration due to gravity and has a value of 9.8 m/s².

Now, plug in all the given values and solve for ΔU. This gives,

\Delta U=(2.0\ kg)(9.8\ m/s^2)(4.0\ m)\\\\\Delta U=78.4\ J

Therefore, the change in gravitational potential energy is 78.4 J.

What best describes the dropping height of a ball that bounced back up to a height of 45 centimeters?
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:C:Less than 45 centimeters, as the ball transforms some of its potential energy into thermal energy and sound energy

Less than 45 centimeters, as the ball transforms some of its potential energy into thermal energy and sound energy.

Although the initial energy (potential energy is preserved), the energy of deformation as the ball strikes a surface creates energy dissipation in the form of frictional heat and audible sound energy.

Every time the ball bounces, its height will be less than its previous height.

Explain why, under some circumstances, it is not advisable to weld a structure that is fabricated with a 3003 aluminum alloy. Hi
Scorpion4ik [409]

The 3003 aluminum alloy is made up of 1.25% Magnesium and 0.1% Copper. This combination is designed to increase the strength of the material over other types of alloys such as those of the 1000 series. This alloy provides a medium strength and can be educated by cold work.

The alloy is not heat treatable and generally has good formability, corrosion resistance and weldability.

However, being a material that hardens by cold work, welding a 3003 Aluminum structure will cause the body to undergo recrystallization which will generate a loss in the 'resistance' of the material and the force capable of withstanding. If this aluminum will be used for structural purposes, it should not be welded. It would be better to perform the structure with a 6061 aluminum, which has similar characteristics and is not so affected by welding.
