<span>So we want to know which statement is true for the body of mass m=2000kg that is lifted to a height of h=15m in t=15 s. Lets calculate each of the following: Gravity force on the body is F=m*g=2000*9.81=19620 N so a is FALSE. Potential energy of the body when it is lifted to the height of 15 m is Ep=m*g*h=2000*9.81*15=294300 J so b is FALSE. Work to lift the body is: W=Fg*h=2000*9.81*15= Ep=294300 J so c is FALSE. Power P=W/t=294300/15=19620 W So d is TRUE. </span>
Answer:
The apple
Explanation:
The apple has gravitational potential energy because it is just sitting there but nothing is pushing it up, it is not sitting on something. This means that it has a lot of gravitational potential energy as nothing is pushing it up.
Answer:
C = 771.35 J/kg°C
Explanation:
Here, e consider the conservation of energy equation. The conservation of energy principle states that:
Heat Given by Metal Piece = Heat Absorbed by Water + Heat Absorbed by Container
Since,
Heat Given or Absorbed by a material = m C ΔT
Therefore,
m₁CΔT₁ = m₂CΔT₂ + m₃C₃ΔT₃
where,
m₁ = Mass of Metal Piece = 2.3 kg
C = Specific Heat of Metal = ?
ΔT₁ = Change in temperature of metal piece = 165°C - 18°C = 147°C
m₂ = Mass of Metal Container = 3.8 kg
ΔT₂ = Change in temperature of metal piece = 18°C - 15°C = 3°C
m₃ = Mass of Water = 20 kg
C₃ = Specific Heat of Water = 4200 J/kg°C
ΔT₃ = Change in temperature of water = 18°C - 15°C = 3°C
Therefore,
(2.3 kg)(C)(147°C) = (3.8 kg)(C)(3°C) + (20 kg)(4186 J/kg°C)(3°C)
C[(2.3 kg)(147°C) - (3.8 kg)(3°C)] = 252000 J
C = 252000 J/326.7 kg°C
<u>C = 771.35 J/kg°C</u>
Gravity is what holds the planets in orbit around the sun and what keeps the moon in orbit around Earth. The gravitational pull of the moon pulls the seas towards it, causing the ocean tides. Gravity creates stars and planets by pulling together the material from which they are made.
