Answer:

To summarize, potential energy is the energy that is stored in an object due to its position relative to some zero position.

Newton's laws of motion works well for ordinary situations on earth. However, these laws of motion do not work for all cases. In
Alenkasestr [34]

Newton's second law of motion pertains to the behavior of objects for which all existing forces are not balanced. The second law states that the acceleration of an object is dependent upon two variables - the net force acting upon the object and the mass of the object. The acceleration of an object depends directly upon the net force acting upon the object, and inversely upon the mass of the object. As the force acting upon an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is increased. As the mass of an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is decreased.

And the correct answer is A) on the surface of the moon; because Newton's second law provides the explanation for the behavior of objects upon which the forces do not balance. The law states that unbalanced forces cause objects to accelerate with an acceleration that is directly proportional to the net force and inversely proportional to the mass.

So the correct answer is A) on the surface of the moon

If a car goes at a speed of 80 kph in 10 seconds, what is the distance
Blababa [14]

Answer:222 meters

Explanation:

Speed=80kph=(80x5/18)=(80x5)/18=22.2m/s

Time=10 seconds

distance=speed x time

distance=22.2 x 10

distance=222

distance=222 meters

Eac of the two Straight Parallel Lines Each of two very long, straight, parallel lines carries a positive charge of 24.00 m C/m.
Cloud [144]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field at a point equidistant from the lines is 4.08\times10^{5}\ N/C

Explanation:

Given that,

Positive charge = 24.00  μC/m

Distance = 4.10 m

We need to calculate the angle

Using formula of angle

\theta=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{\dfrac{d}{2}}{2d})

\theta=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{1}{4})

\theta=14.47^{\circ}

We need to calculate the magnitude of the electric field at a point equidistant from the lines

Using formula of electric field

E=\dfrac{2k\lambda}{r}\times2\cos\theat

Put the value into the formula

E=\dfrac{2\times9\times10^{9}\times24.00\times2\times10^{-6}\cos14.47}{2.05}

E=408094.00\ N/C

E=4.08\times10^{5}\ N/C

Hence, The magnitude of the electric field at a point equidistant from the lines is 4.08\times10^{5}\ N/C

What is the pressure exerted by a column of fresh water 10m high<br>(p=1000kg/m3 and g=10m/s)​
alexira [117]
  • Height (h) = 10 m
  • Density (ρ) = 1000 Kg/m^3
  • Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s^2
  • We know, pressure in a fluid = hρg
  • Therefore, the pressure exerted by a column of fresh water
  • = hρg
  • = (10 × 1000 × 10) Pa
  • = 100000 Pa

<u>Answer</u><u>:</u>

<u>1000</u><u>0</u><u>0</u><u> </u><u>Pa</u>

Hope you could understand.
