Gravity pulls to the centre of the earth. A ship floats in water because the water pushing it up (upthrust) is equal to the force<span> of gravity (weight) pulling it </span>down<span>. Friction also occurs when objects move through air. This is </span>called<span>air resistance.</span>

Calculate Gravitational Potential Energy for an object on Earth with a mass of 2 kg and a height of 7 m.
victus00 [196]

Answer:

137.2J

Explanation:

Ep= mgh

Given,

  • m=2kg
  • h=7m

and we know, g = 9.81 N/kg

Ep= 2 × 9.81 × 7

Ep= 137.2J

Which statement is true regarding a chemical reaction?
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

B) The total number of atoms does not change, so mass is conserved in the reaction.

Explanation:

According to the <u><em>Law of Conservation of Mass</em></u>, no matter can ever be created or destroyed. The number of atoms does not change, thus the mass does not change.

The frequency of a wave is 200 Hz. The wavelength is 0.1 m. What is the period of the wave?
Aleks04 [339]
The formula for the period of wave is: wave period is equals to 1 over the frequency.waveperiod=\frac{1}{frequency}
To get the value of period of wave you need to divide 1 by 200 Hz. However, beforehand, you have to convert 200 Hz to cycles per second. So that would be, 200 cyles per second or 200/s.
By then, you can start the computation by dividing 1 by 200/s. Since 200/s is in fractional form, you have to find its reciprocal form and multiply it to one which would give you 1 (one) second over 200. This would then lead us to the value 0.005 seconds as the wave period.

wave period= 1/200 Hz
Convert Hz to cycles per second first
200 Hz x 1/s= 200/second
Make 200/second as your divisor, so:

wave period= 1/ 200/s

get the reciprocal form of 200/s which is s/200

then you can start the actual computation:

wave period= 1 x s divided by 200

this would give us an answer of 0.005 s.
