Suppose a 4,000-kg elephant is hoisted 20 m above Earth’s surface. Use a calculator and follow the steps below to find the eleph
stiv31 [10]
GPE = 78,380 J
w = 39,240 N

First list what you know. You know the elephants mass and it’s height. You also know gravity on Earth. I will use g = 9.81.
m = 4,000 kg
h = 20 m
g = 9.81 m/s^2

You need to find the elephants weight. Weight = mass x gravity
w = mg
w = (4000 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)
w = 39,240 N (N = newtons)

Now, knowing the elephants weight, you can calculate its GPE.
Gravitational Potential Energy = weight x height

GPE = wh
GPE = (39,240N)(20m)
GPE = 78,380 J (J = joules)

A string under a tension of 36 N is used to whirl a rock in a horizontal circle of radius 3.6 m at a speed of 16.12 m/s. The str
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

6010.457N

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration = a= V²/R

At a radius of 3.6m and velocity of 16.12m/s,

Acceleration is

a = 16.12²/ 3.6 = 72.182 m/s²

Force = Mass (m) * Acceleration (a)

36 = m * 72.182

m = 36/72.182

At breaking point

Radius = 0.468 m and Velocity = 75.1 m/s

a = V²/R = 75.1²/0.468

a = 12051.3 m/s

F = Mass(m) * Acceleration (a)

F = m * 12051.3

m = F/ 12051.3

Settings the ratio of mass equal

m = m

=> 36/72.182 = F/12051.3

F = 12051.3 * 36/72.182

F = 6010.457N

Explain why a battery causes charge to flow spontaneously when the battery is inserted in a circuit
deff fn [24]
Batteries supply electrons to the circuit by releasing negatively charged atoms or ions. These ions are produced by the batteries through a chemical reaction that spontaneously occurs within the battery. So the negative end of the battery pushes the ions towards the positive end of the circuit with the help of the voltage. This is why eventually, batteries "run out" when the electrode is used up and the chemical reaction can no longer continue.
