Answer:
PE = 58.8,J
Explanation:
The potential energy at the top of ramp1 can be found by the application of the formula PE = mgh
Where PE =potential energy
m = mass of block = 2kg
g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.80m/s²
h = height of the top of the ramp from its bottom where the block is initially positioned = 3m
PE = 2×9.8×3 = 58.8J
Answer:
<h2><em>
34.46m</em></h2>
Explanation:
Using one of the equation of motion to solve the question. According to the equation v² =u²+2as where;
v is the final velocity of the bicyclist = 26m/s
u is the initial velocity of the bicyclist = 0m/s
a is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81m/s
s is the distance covered during travel
Substitute the given parameters into the formula above to get the distance traveled
26² = 0² + 2(9.81)s
676 = 19.62s
Divide both sides by 19.62
676/19.62 = 19.62s/19.62
s = 34.46m
<em>The distance traveled by the bicyclist during the race is 34.46m</em>
A second important difference between comets coming from the Kuiper Belt and from the Oort cloud is represented by their different characteristic periods.
In fact, short period comets are thought to generate in the Kuiper belt and have rather predictable orbits with short periods (up to 200 years). There are two major families of short period comets: the Jupiter family with periods of less than 20 years and the Halley family with periods form 20 to 200 years. That's short
