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

Answer:

Object 3 has greatest acceleration.

Explanation:

Objects               Mass                                Force

1                            10 kg                               4 N              

2                           100 grams                       20 N

3                            10 grams                         4 N

4                             1 kg                                 20 N

Acceleration of object 1,

a_1=\dfrac{F_1}{m_1}\\\\a_1=\dfrac{4}{10}\\\\a_1=0.4\ m/s^2

Acceleration of object 2,

a_2=\dfrac{F_2}{m_2}\\\\a_2=\dfrac{20}{0.1}\\\\a_2=200\ m/s^2

Acceleration of object 3,

a_3=\dfrac{F_3}{m_3}\\\\a_3=\dfrac{4}{0.01}\\\\a_3=400\ m/s^2

Acceleration of object 4,

a_4=\dfrac{F_4}{m_4}\\\\a_4=\dfrac{20}{1}\\\\a_3=20\ m/s^2

It is clear that the acceleration of object 3 is 400\ m/s^2 and it is greatest of all. So, the correct option is (3).

The burner on a stove is 325° f. given that the burner emits electromagnetic radiation as a blackbody, what is the maximum wavel
lesantik [10]
To solve this, we use the Wien's Displacement Law as shown in the attached picture. First, convert the temperature to Kelvin. 

C to F:
C = (F - 32)*5/9
C = (325 - 32)*5/9 = 162.78 °C

C to K:
K = C + 273
K = 162.78 + 273 = 435.78 K

λmax = 2898/435.78 = <em>6</em><em>.65 μm</em>

A 2.51 kg ball is attached to a ceiling by a 1.19 m long string. The height of the room is 3.45 m. The acceleration of gravity i
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

55,42 J

Explanation:

Since the height of the room is 3.45 m (distance between the floor and the ceiling) the difference between this value and the length of the rope 1.19 m; it will be equal to (3.45-1.19) =2.26 m. If we take as a reference point (Ep=0) the floor of the room, then the potential energy will be equal to Ep = M * g * h, replacing values in this equation (2.5 kg * 9.81 m/s2 * 2.26 m) will be 55,42 (N * m) or Jules.

How could you increase the gravitational potential energy between yourself and Earth?
Tamiku [17]
Gravitational Potential Energy, GPE = mgh

Where m is your mass in kg, g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s², and h is the height in m.

The only value that be controlled here is the height h.  The mass is constant, and acceleration due to gravity at that place is constant.

But h can be varied.

Hence to increase the gravitational potential energy between yourself and Earth is to increase the height h.

This can be done by climbing up a table, or climbing up a building through the stairs, or by using a lift.
