A rock falls from a vertical cliff that is 4.0 m tall and experiences no significant air resistance as it falls. At what speed w

ill its gravitational potential energy (relative to the base of the cliff) be equal to its kinetic energy

Answer:

About 6.26m/s

Explanation:

mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Divide both sides by mass:

gh=\dfrac{1}{2}v^2

Since the point of equality of kinetic and potential energy will be halfway down the cliff, height will be 4/2=2 meters.

(9.8)(2)=\dfrac{1}{2}v^2 \\\\v^2=39.4 \\\\v\approx 6.26m/s

Hope this helps!

Why is it safe to watch an eclipse of the Moon but not an eclipse of the Sun
gavmur [86]
A solar eclipse occurs when the moon crosses in front of the Sun, blocking some or all of its rays. A lunar eclipse happens when the moon is directly behind the earth, blocking the moon from receiving light. The only light comes from the light on earth's reflected shadow.

You can look at a lunar eclipse because there is very little light or none at all. You can't look at a solar eclipse because you are looking directly at the sun unless it is complete. Before totality, only some of the Sun is blocked, causing your pupils dilate to let in more light. Since they do this, more of the Sun's rays can be let in to the eye, which effectively allows your eyes to burn. 

Some doctors and eye care specialists say that after someone complains of blindness after looking at a solar eclipse unaided, they can see what the Sun and moon looked like at the time that they looked at it, as it is burned onto their retinas.

9. If the frequency of a certain light is 3.8 x 1024 Hz, what is the energy of this light?
german

Answer:

E=hf

Were, h = Planck constant 6.67*10^11

E=3.8*10^24 * 6.67*10^11= 2.508*q0^36j

Gold has a density of 19300 kg/m3 calculate the mass of 0.02m3 of gold in kilograms​
aev [14]

Answer:

The mass of 0.02 m³ of gold is 386 kilograms

Explanation:

Given:

The density of the gold = 19300 kg/m³.

The volume of gold = 0.02 m³

To Find:

The mass of gold = ?

Solution:

We know that density is mass divided per unit volume.

Thus mathematically

Density = \frac{mass}{volume}Density=

volume

mass

Rewriting in terms of mass ,

Mass = density * volume

On substituting the known values

Mass = 19300 kg/m³ * 0.02 m³

Mass = 386 kilograms

Learn more about Mass and Density:

Mass=?,volume=190,density=4

Mass 350 kg volume 175 density ans

This is not my answer I copied it but hope it helps:)
