Increase the mass of the beanbag its gravitational potential energy will
kotegsom [21]

The gravitational potential energy will increase

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy (GPE) of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its position in a gravitational field.

Near the Earth's surface, the GPE of an object is given by

GPE=mgh

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration of gravity

h is the heigth of the object above the ground

From the equation, we see that the GPE is directly proportional to the mass: therefore, if the mass increases, the GPE will increase as well.

So, for the beanbag in this problem, when its mass increases, the GPE will increase as well.

Air temperature in a desert can reach 58.0°C (about 136°F). What is the speed of sound (in m/s) in air at that temperature?
Veronika [31]

The approximate speed of sound in dry (0% humidity) air, in meters per second, at temperatures near 0 °C, can be calculated from

c_{air} = (331.3+0.606 \upsilon)

Here

\upsilon = Temperature in Celsius

Replacing with our values we have that

\upsilon=58\° C

c_{air} = (331.3+0.606*58)

c_{air} = 366.1m/s

Therefore the speed of sound in air at that temperature is 366.1m/s

A 82-kg fisherman in a 112-kg boat throws a package of mass m = 15 kg horizontally toward the right with a speed of vi = 4.8 m/s
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

0.37 m/s to the left

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.  Initial momentum = final momentum.

m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂

Initially, both the fisherman/boat and the package are at rest.

0 = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂

Plugging in values and solving:

0 = (82 kg + 112 kg) v + (15 kg) (4.8 m/s)

v = -0.37 m/s

The boat's velocity is 0.37 m/s to the left.
