Increasing which two things would increase gravitational potential energy?

Physics
1 answer:
sukhopar [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Mass and height

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is energy an object possesses because of its position in a gravitational field. The most common use of gravitational potential energy is for an object near the surface of the Earth where the gravitational acceleration can be assumed to be constant at about 9.8 m/s2.

Which is represented as;

PE_g=mgh

PE_g stands for gravitational potantial energy,

m stands for mass of object,

g is the gravitational constant and

h is the height.

Here we see that mass of object and height is directly proportional to the gravitational potential energy.

That means increasing in mass and height will result in increasing gravitational potential energy.

What is the force that causes electrons to move in an electrical circuit
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

This force is called electromotive force, or EMF. Sometimes it is convenient to think of EMF as electrical pressure. In other words, it is the force that makes electrons move in a certain direction within a conductor.

Find the net force on q3. Include the<br> direction (+ or -).<br> (Unit = N) PLS HELP!
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

First of all we shall find out net  electric field at q₃ due to both of the remaining charges .

electric field due to charge Q = k Q / r² where k = 9 x 10⁹ Q is amount of charge and r is distance of point

electric field due to charge 105 x 10⁻⁶ C

= 9 x 10⁹ x 105 x 10⁻⁶ / .95²

= 1.047 x 10⁶ N/C  .

It will act away from q₂

electric field due to charge 53 x 10⁻⁶ C

= 9 x 10⁹ x 53 x 10⁻⁶ /( .5+.95)²

= 0.227  x 10⁶ N/C  .

It will act towards   q₁

These fields are in opposite direction so

net field E = 0.82 x 10⁶ N/C.

It will act away from  q₂ .

Force on q₃ due to net field

= q₃ E

= 88 x 10⁻⁶ x 0.82 x 10⁶

= 72.16 N

The direction of this field will be towards q₂ because force on negative charge in a field is always in a direction opposite to the direction of the field.

The importance of globular clusters in determining the correct location of the center of the Milky Way Galaxy is that they conta
Viktor [21]

Answer:

variable

Explanation:

Globular clusters is defined as collection of numerous star that revolve around the galaxy core. they are so bound to each other that they formed spherical shape. This boundness  among the star is  due to gravity. The main characteristics of globular cluster is that they contain high density of star at center.

Every galaxy consist of various number of globular cluster and even milky way consist of 125 to 200 cluster
