Answer:

Well, Since the gravitational potential energy of an object is directly proportional to its height above the zero position, a doubling of the height will result in a doubling of the gravitational potential energy. A tripling of the height will result in a tripling of the gravitational potential energy..

A boat takes off from a dock at 2.5 m/s and speeds up at 4.2 m/s squared for six seconds how far has the most traveled

GaryK [48]

The boat's position $x$ relative to its starting point $x_0=0$ is determined by

$x=x_0+v_0t+\dfrac12at^2$

where $v_0$ is its initial velocity, $a$ is its acceleration, and $t$ is time. After $t=6\,\mathrm s$ , the boat has traveled

$x=\left(2.5\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)(6\,\mathrm s)+\dfrac12\left(4.2\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(6\,\mathrm s)^2$

$\implies x=91\,\mathrm m$

A horizontal clothesline is tied between 2 poles, 16 meters apart. When a mass of 3 kilograms is tied to the middle of the cloth

Alla [95]

Answer:

The magnitude of the tension on the ends of the clothesline is 41.85 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Poles = 2

Distance = 16 m

Mass = 3 kg

Sags distance = 3 m

We need to calculate the angle made with vertical by mass

Using formula of angle

$\tan\theta=\dfrac{8}{3}$

$\thta=\tan^{-1}\dfrac{8}{3}$

$\theta=69.44^{\circ}$

We need to calculate the magnitude of the tension on the ends of the clothesline

Using formula of tension

$mg=2T\cos\theta$

Put the value into the formula

$3\times9.8=2T\times\cos69.44$

$T=\dfrac{3\times9.8}{2\times\cos69.44}$

$T=41.85\ N$

Hence, The magnitude of the tension on the ends of the clothesline is 41.85 N.

A point charge of 5.7 µc moves at 4.5 × 105 m/s in a magnetic field that has a field strength of 3.2 mt, as shown in the diagram

Sauron [17]

The magnitude of the force on the charge by the influence of the magnetic field will be 6.6*10^-3 N

<h3>What is magnetic force?</h3>

Magnetic force, attraction or repulsion that arises between electrically charged particles because of their motion.The magnitude of the magnetic force acting on the charge is given by:
