U= mgh
U=((29.34/1000)kg)(9.81 \frac{m}{s^{2} } )(14.7m)=4.321J

do not forget to change grams to kilograms and if it were in centimeters convert them to meters.

What is the chemical formula for copper (I) sulfide? A) CuS B) CuS2 C) Cu2S D) Cu2S3
Ganezh [65]

This problem can be solved by using oxidation states. The oxidation state  is based on the electrons an atom loses or gain, or appears to use when forming compounds.To find the formula for Copper (I) Sulfide, we have to first consider the individual ions that come together to form it. Copper (I) is an ion of copper that has a charge of  +1, i.e  Cu^{+} . Sulfur is an element in group 6 of the periodic table. The sulfur ion has a charge of  -2, i.e  S^{2-}.  To form Copper (I) Sulfide, which is electrically neutral, we need 2 Copper (I) ions and 1 sulfur ion.

Cu_2S= 2Cu^+ 1S^-^2= 2(+1) + (-2) = 0.

The reaction is represented by the equation below

2Cu^{+} +S^{2-}-->Cu_2S.

The correct answer is (C)

Two spheres having masses M and 2M and radii R and 3R, respectively, are released from rest when the distance between their cent
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

v_2 = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{3R}}

v_1 = 2\sqrt{\frac{GM}{3R}}

Explanation:

As we know by energy conservation that change in gravitational potential energy of the system = change in kinetic energy of the two ball

So here we can say

-\frac{GM(2M)}{12R} + 0 = -\frac{GM(2M)}{4R} + \frac{1}{2}Mv_1^2 + \frac{1}{2}(2M)v_2^2

Also since there is no external force on the system of two masses so here total momentum of the two balls will remains conserved

0 = Mv_1 + 2Mv_2

v_1 = -2v_2

now we have

\frac{GM^2}{2R} - \frac{GM^2}{6R} = \frac{1}{2}M(-2v_2)^2 + \frac{1}{2}(2M)v_2^2

\frac{GM^2}{3R} = Mv_2^2

v_2 = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{3R}}

v_1 = 2\sqrt{\frac{GM}{3R}}

a brand of a lightbulb has a power of 55w and an efficiency of 1.6% how much power is wasted as heat by this lightbulb
Maru [420]
98.4% of the power turns into heat.

If the bulb consumes 55 watts,
then it "wastes"

(0.984) x (55w) = 54.12 watts

A Red-Tailed Hawk leaves its nest and flies 100.0 meters across the sky in 20 seconds, when it spots a garter snake on the groun
igomit [66]
Speed = distance / time.

Speed of him leaving the nest:
S = 100 / 20sec

5 m/s.

Catching the snake:
S2 = 50 / 5sec

10 m/s.

Average of 5& 10 = 7.5

7.5 m/s has to be the answer.
