The equation for potential energy is denoted as;
Pe = mgh,
where m = the mass, g = acceleration due to gravity, and h = vertical height of the apple. We are given the units for everything but height, which is also what we are solving for. We can then algebraically rearrange our initial equation to solve for h;
h = (Pe)/(mg)
Plug in your given units, and solve!
Post-check:
h = Pe/mg
h = 175J/(0.36g)(-9.81m/s^2)
h = appr. 49.5 meters
Note: Potential energy is a vector quantity; the displacement of the apple will be a negative number, but the distance itself, a scalar quantity, will be the absolute value of that.
Answer:
a) a = 1,865 m / s² and b) t = 8.1 s
Explanation:
a) Let's use Newton's second law to find acceleration, we can work the equation in scalar form because displacement and force have the same direction
F = m .a
a = F / m
a = 8.02 10² /4.3 10²
a = 1,865 m / s²
b) We use kinematic relationships in one dimension
vf = vo + at
vf = 0 + a t
t = vf / a
t = 15.1 / 1.865
t = 8.1 s
The beats are actually two new sounds.
Their frequencies are (the sum of the original two frequencies) and (the difference of the original two frequencies).
The existence of the beats is the result of the difference in the frequencies of the original two sounds. <em> (b)</em>
Hello!
momentum is p=mv so if the velocity is decreased by a factor of 2, which is 1/2 the value, then the momentum of that object will decrease by the same factorial.
Hope this helps, any questions please ask. Thank you!
