Answer:

P.E = 196 J

Explanation:

Given,

The mass of the box, m = 10 Kg

The height of the box from the ground, h = 2 m

The acceleration due to gravity, a = 9.8 m/s²

The gravitational potential energy of the box is given by the formula

                              P.E = mgh joules

Substituting the given values in the above equation,

                              P.E = 10 x 2 x 9.8

                                   = 196 J

Hence, the gravitational potential energy of box, P.E = 196 J

Given 4.8 moles of a gas at 37 degrees Celsius and at 792 torr, what is the volume of the gas? (The ideal gas constant is 0.0821
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

1.17 x 10^2 L

Explanation:

We can find the volume of the gas by using the ideal gas law:

pV=nRT

where we have:

p=792 Torr \cdot \frac{1 atm}{760 Torr} = 1.04 atm is the pressure

V is the volume

n = 4.8 mol is the number of moles

R = 0.0821 L · atm/mol · K is the ideal gas constant

T=37^{\circ}+273 =310 K is the temperature

Solving the equation for V, we find the volume

V=\frac{nRT}{p}=\frac{(4.8 mol)(0.0821 L atm/mol K)(310 K)}{1.04 atm}=117.5 L = 1.17\cdot 10^2 L

The frequency of a person's pendulum is 0.3204 Hz when at a location where g is known to be exactly 9.800 m/s^2.
wel

Answer:

A) g = 9.751 m/s², B)       h = 2.573 10⁴ m

Explanation:

The angular velocity of a pendulum is

           w = √ g / L

Angular velocity and frequency are related.

          w = 2π f

          f = 1 / 2π √ g / L

A) with the initial data we can look for the pendulum length

        L = 1 /4π²   g / f²

        L = 1 /4π²   9,800 / 0.3204²

        L = 2.4181 m

The length of the pendulum does not change, let's look for the value of g for the new location

        g = 4π² f²  L

        g = 4π² 0.3196²  2.4181

        g = 9.75096 m / s²

         g = 9.751 m/s²

B) The value of the acceleration of gravity can be found with the law of universal gravitation

           F = G m M / R_{e}²

And Newton's second law

           W = m g

           W = F

         G m M / R_{e}² = mg

         g = G M / R_{e}²

         R_{e}² = G M / g

Let's calculate

          R_{e}² = 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 5.98 10²⁴ /9.75096

          R = √ 4.0905 10¹³ = √ 40.9053 10¹²

          R = 6.395726 10⁶ m

The height above sea level is

         h = R - [tex]R_{e}[/tex

         h = (6.395726 -6.37) 10⁶

         h = 0.0257256 106

         h = 2.573 10⁴ m
