Potential Energy = mgh,

where m = mass in kg,  g ≈ 10 m/s², h = height above ground = 8 m

PE = mgh
  
      = 70*10*8 = 5600 J

A bike rider was moving to the right at a constant speed. Suddenly the wind then starts blowing against her with 3 N of force to
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

The correct option is D

Explanation:

This question can be better understood when discussed using the Newton's first law of motion which states that an object would continue to move with a uniform speed (in a straight line) unless acted upon by an external force. What happens here (in the question) is that the bike rider would have continued moving at a constant speed (to the right) if not for the opposing force of the wind that acted against her (to the left). <u>This wind/force would cause her speed to reduce or slow down (as posited by the law)</u>.

<h2>So, the correct answers are:</h2>

Travels in longitudinal waves

Travels most slowly through a gas

Speeds up when temperature is increased

Is caused by vibration

Explanation for correct answers:

Yes, it does travel in longitudinal waves

Yes, sounds weird, but travels faster in the water

Yes, does speed up when temperature is increased

And yes, Is caused by vibration.

<h2>Wrong answer is:</h2>

Can travel through a vacuum

Explanation for wrong answer:

actually, in space, there is NO sound, because there are no particals for the sound to vibrate with, there's just empty SPACE.

-A 180 kg hippo is riding a bicycle at a speed of 6.0
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

0.0675 seconds

Explanation:

From the question,

We apply newton's second law of motion

F = m(v-u)/t.................... Equation 1

Where F = force exert by the brake, v = final speed, u = initial speed m = mass of the bicycle, t = time.

make t the subject of the equation

t = m(v-u)/F................... Equation 2

Given: m = 180 kg, u = 6.0 m/s, v = 0 m/s (comes to stop), F = -1600 N ( agianst the dirction of motion)

Substitute these value into equation 2

t = 180(0-6.0)/-1600

t = -1080/-1600

t = 0.0675 seconds.

A block of mass 1.5 hangs at the of end of a weight cord suspended from the ceiling.what is the tension in the cord, and with wh
Len [333]

The tension in the cord is 14.7 N and the force of pull of the cord is 14.7 N, assuming the block is stationary.

<h3>What is the tension in the cord?</h3>

The tension in the cord is calculated as follows;

T = ma + mg

where;

  • a is the acceleration of the block
  • g is acceleration due to gravity
  • m is mass of the block

T = m(a + g)

T = 1.5(a + 9.8)

T = 1.5a + 14.7

Thus, the tension in the cord is (1.5a + 14.7) N.

If the block is at rest, the tension is 14.7 N.

<h3>Force of the force</h3>

The force with which the cord pulls is equal to the tension in the cord

F = T = m(a + g)

F = (1.5a + 14.7) N

If the block is stationary, a = 0, the tension and force of pull of the cord = 14.7 N.

Thus, the tension in the cord is 14.7 N and the force of pull of the cord is 14.7 N, assuming the block is stationary.
