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

A weather balloon is designed to expand to a maximum radius of 21 m at its working altitude, where the air pressure is 0.030 atm

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

7.65 m

Explanation:

$P_1$ = Initial pressure = 0.03 atm

$P_2$ = Final pressure = 1 atm

$r_1$ = Inital radius = 21 m

$V_1$ = Intial volume of gas = $\frac{4}{3}\pi r_1^3$

$V_2$ = Final volume of gas = $\frac{4}{3}\pi r_2^3$

$T_1$ = Initial temperature = 200 K

$T_2$ = Final temperature = 323 K

From ideal gas law we have

$\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{P_1\frac{4}{3}\pi r_1^3}{T_1}=\frac{P_2\frac{4}{3}\pi r_2^3}{T_2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{P_1 r_1^3}{T_1}=\frac{P_2r_2^3}{T_2}\\\Rightarrow r_2=\frac{P_1r_1^3T_2}{T_1P_2}\\\Rightarrow r_2=\left(\frac{0.03\times 21^3\times 323}{200\times 1}\right)^{\frac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow r_2=7.65\ m$

The radius at liftoff is 7.65 m
