<span>carrying twice the weight and climbing twice as high</span>
Andrew [12]4 years ago

Answer : The correct option is (c).

Explanation :

The energy which is due to the height of an object under the action of gravity is called gravitational potential energy.

Mathematically, it can be written as :

P = m g h

Where,

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height of the object from the reference level

So, potential energy is directly proportional to both the mass and the height.

The statement about the largest increase in a mountain climber’s gravitational potential energy is "carrying twice the weight and climbing twice as high".

Internal energy is B. The sum of the kinetic and potential energies of the particles in a  system

Explanation:

The internal energy possessed by the particles in any substance has two origins:

  • Part of the energy of the particles is due to the motion of the particles. In fact, for a substance at a temperature larger than absolute zero, the particles in the substance are always in motion (for a solid, they just vibrate around their fixed position, while in a liquid and in a gas, the particles are actually free to move). Because of this motion, the particles have kinetic energy. The temperature of a substance is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in the substance.
  • The rest of the energy of a substance is in the form of potential energy, and it refers to the energy contained in the bonds between the particles of the substance (for instance, in the intermolecular bonds between different atoms in a solid). For a gaseous substance, these intermolecular bonds are very weak, therefore the potential energy is not considered and the internal energy of a gas depends only on its kinetic energy (and therefore, only on the temperature of the substance).

Therefore, the internal energy of a substance is the sum of the kinetic and the potential energies of the particles in the substance.

Calculate the height from which a body is released rest if its velocity just before hitting the ground is 30ms-1
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

45.9m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Final velocity  = 30m/s

Initial velocity  = 0m/s

Unknown:

Height of fall  = ?

Solution:

  The motion equation to solve this problem is given below;

            V² = U² + 2gH

            V²  = 0 + (2 x 9.8 x H)

           30²  = 19.6H

              H = \frac{900}{19.6}   = 45.9m

What must be the pressure amplitude in a sound wave in the air (0∘C) if the air molecules undergo a maximum displacement equal t
user100 [1]

Answer:

Pressure amplitude, P=4.42\times 10^{-5}\ Pa

Explanation:

It is given that,

The maximum displacement equal to the diameter of an oxygen molecule, d=3\times 10^{-10}\ m

Speed of sound at 0 degrees is, v = 331.5 m/s

The pressure amplitude for the longitudinal wave is given by :

P=2\pi f\rho vd

Where

\rho is the density of air, \rho=1.2\ kg/m^3

f is the frequency say 59 Hz

So, pressure amplitude is given by :

P=2\pi \times 59\times 1.2\times 331.5\times 3\times 10^{-10}

P=4.42\times 10^{-5}\ Pa

So, the pressure amplitude in a sound wave in the air must be P=4.42\times 10^{-5}\ Pa. Hence, this is the required solution.
