Gravitational potential energy = m * g* h

<u>Explanation:</u>

Gravitational potential is referred as the energy spent to move the mass from one point to another. It is represented in the unit as Joules per kilogram.  

Gravitational potential energy = m * g * h where m denotes the mass of the object, g denotes the acceleration due to gravity which is 9.8 m / s 2, and h denotes the height in meters.

The equation for gravitational potential energy is GPE = mgh, where m is the mass in kilograms, g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 on Earth), and h is the height above the ground in meters.

What is the momentum of a 0.000015 kg mosquito flying straight at you with a velocity of 5.20 m/s?
Setler [38]

Answer:

Momentum, p=7.8\times 10^{-5}\ N-m

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a mosquito, m = 0.000015 kg

Velocity of the mosquito, v = 5.2 m/s

We need to find the momentum of the mosquito. The momentum of an object is given by :

p = mv

Put all the values in the above formula.

p=0.000015\ kg\times 5.2\ m/s\\\\p=0.000078\ N-m\\\\\text{or}\\\\p=7.8\times 10^{-5}\ N-m

So, the momentum of the mosquito is 7.8\times 10^{-5}\ N-m.

When the frequency of an ac circuit is decreased, the current in the circuit increases. which combination of elements is most li
zaharov [31]

Answer:

The combination of elements most likely to comprise the circuit are resistor, inductor and capacitor

Explanation:

The impedance of an LCR circuit shown as

     Z = √R² + (X↓l - X↓c)²

     Z​ = √R² + (2π∨L - 1/2π∨c)²

Variation of Z with respect to υ is shown in the figure.

As υ increases, Z decreases and so the current increases.

At υ = υ↓r

Z is minimum, current is maximum. Beyond

    υ = υ↓r

​Z increases and so current decreases.

so the combination of circuit elements that is most suitable to comprise

the circuit is R, L and C.

Consider three scenarios in which a particular box moves downward under the pull of gravity :
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

1. True  WA > WB > WC

Explanation:

In this exercise they give work for several different configurations and ask that we show the relationship between them, the best way to do this is to calculate each work separately.

A) Work is the product of force by distance and the cosine of the angle between them

    WA = W h cos 0

   WA = mg h

B) On a ramp without rubbing

     Sin30 = h / L

     L = h / sin 30

     WB = F d cos θ  

     WB = F L cos 30

     WB = mf (h / sin30) cos 30

     WB = mg h ctan 30

C) Ramp with rubbing

    W sin 30 - fr = ma

   N- Wcos30 = 0

   W sin 30 - μ W cos 30 = ma

    F = W (sin30 - μ cos30)

   WC = mg (sin30 - μ cos30) h / sin30

   Wc = mg (1 - μ ctan30) h

When we review the affirmation it is the work where there is rubbing is the smallest and the work where it comes in free fall at the maximum

Let's review the claims

1. True The work of gravity is the greatest and the work where there is friction is the least

2 False. The job where there is friction is the least

3 False work with rubbing is the least

4 False work with rubbing is the least

Three joggers are running along straight lines as follows: Jogger A, with a mass of 55.2kg, is traveling along the line y=6.00m
frutty [35]

Answer:

L = - 1361.591 k Kgm/s

Explanation:

Given

mA = 55.2 Kg

vA = 3.45 m/s

rA = 6.00 m

mB = 62.4 Kg

vB = 4.23 m/s

rB = 3.00 m

mC = 72.1 Kg

vC = 4.75 m/s

rC = - 5.00 m

then we apply the equation

L =  (mv x r)

⇒  LA = mA*vA x rA = 55.2 *(3.45 i)x(6 j) = (1142.64 k) Kgm/s

⇒  LB = mB*vB x rB = 62.4 *(4.23 j)x(3 i) = (- 791.856 k) Kgm/s

⇒  LC = mC*vC x rC = 72.1 *(- 4.75 j)x(- 5 i) = (- 1712.375 k) Kgm/s

Finally, the total counterclockwise angular momentum of the three joggers about the origin is

L = LA + LB + LC = (1142.64 - 791.856 -1712.375) k  Kgm/s

L = - 1361.591 k Kgm/s
