Answer:

5.5 kg

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of an object is given by

$U=mgh$

where

m is its mass

g is the acceleration of gravity

h is the height of the object above the ground

For the rock in the problem, we know:

h = 12 m is the height above the ground

U = 650 J

g = 9.8 m/s^2

Therefore, we can solve the equation for m, the mass of the rock:

$m=\frac{U}{gh}=\frac{650}{(9.8)(12)}=5.5 kg$

What distance should be used to pattern a shotgun hunter ed?

Murljashka [212]

I think the distance that should be used is the distance that one expects to be from the game you are hunting. Before taking a shotgun for a gobbler or even for ducks or other animals, you need to see how your gun performs by patterning it at various ranges with the load you want to use.

Light-rail passenger trains that provide transportation within and between cities speed up and slow down with a nearly constant

Elena L [17]

Answer:

19 m/s

Explanation:

The complete question requires the final speed to be calculated.

Velocity is the rate and direction at which an object moves. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity per unit time and can be calculated by the difference in velocity over a given time.

For this question, first the unknown acceleration must be calculated and used to determine the final velocity

Step 1: Calculate the acceleration

$a=\frac{v_{2}-v{1}}{t_{1}}$
