Answer:
ΔP.E = 6.48 x 10⁸ J
Explanation:
First we need to calculate the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of moon:
g = GM/R²
where,
g = acceleration due to gravity on the surface of moon = ?
G = Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²
M = Mass of moon = 7.36 x 10²² kg
R = Radius of Moon = 1740 km = 1.74 x 10⁶ m
Therefore,
g = (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²)(7.36 x 10²² kg)/(1.74 x 10⁶ m)²
g = 2.82 m/s²
now the change in gravitational potential energy of rocket is calculated by:
ΔP.E = mgΔh
where,
ΔP.E = Change in Gravitational Potential Energy = ?
m = mass of rocket = 1090 kg
Δh = altitude = 211 km = 2.11 x 10⁵ m
Therefore,
ΔP.E = (1090 kg)(2.82 m/s²)(2.11 x 10⁵ m)
<u>ΔP.E = 6.48 x 10⁸ J</u>
The first one is Force & the second one Power.
Answer:
0.5kg
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Potential energy = 147J
Height = 30m
Unknown:
Mass of the bird = ?
Solution:
Potential energy is the energy due to the position of a body. Now, the expression for finding the potential energy is given as;
P.E = mgH
m is the mass
g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²
H is the height
147 = m x 9.8 x 30
m = 0.5kg
Answer:
Explanation:
Normal length of spring = 28.3 cm
stretched length of spring = 38.2 cm
length of extension = 38.2 - 28.3 = 9.9 cm
= 9.9 x 10⁻² m
force applied to stretch = .55 x 9.8 ( mg )
= 5.39 N
Force constant = force applied / extension
= 5.39 / 9.9 x 10⁻²
= .5444 x 10² N /m
= 54.44 N/m
