Answer:
Mechanical Energy (initial) = Mechanical energy (final)
Ep(initial) + Ek(initial) = Ep(final) + Ek(final)
mgh(initial) + 1/2mv²(initial) = mgh(final) + 1/2mv²(final)
m being the mass of the penguin (kg)
g being gravitational acceleration (9.80 m/s²)
v(initial) being zero
h(final) being zero,i.e. final height is zero
v(final) being final velocity
solve for h(initial) being initial height at the top of the glacier
answer will be in metres
NB: don't forget to square the velocity
Explanation:
Since they mentioned frictionless, we know that this is a closed system therefore we are free to use this equation of conservation of mechanical energy
Don't forget to rate answer
Answer:
Gamma rays
Gamma rays have the highest energies, the shortest wavelengths, and the highest frequencies.
You haven't said whether the two resistors are connected
in series or in parallel. It makes a difference.
-- If they are in series, then their combined effective resistance is
(3 + 2) = 5 ohms.
Current in the circuit is (voltage)/(resistance) = 1.5/5 = 0.3 Amp.
-- If they are in parallel, then their combined effective resistance is
(3 x 2) / (3 + 2) = (6/5) = 1.2 ohms.
Current in the circuit is (voltage)/(resistance) = 1.5/1.2 = 1.25 Amp.
Answer:
distance and length are the same quantity
