A 360-N child is in a swing that is attached to a pair of ropes 1.90 m long. Find the gravitational potential energy of the chil

Answer:

684J

Explanation:

So basically the formula for gravitational potential energy is Mass X Gravity X height. That is G.p.e = mgh

We don't have the mass but since we have the height, we multiply directly with the height since the quantity of weight is already given.

so G.p.e = 360 X 1.9 = 684J

Note that; The answer is in joules because g.p.e is work done.

Hope that was helpful!!

Describe the energy transfer when you touch a block of ice with your hand
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Thermal energy always flows from the warmer object to the colder object. This causes your hand to get cold, while the ice absorbs your heat and melts.

The solid rod shown has a radius of 0.75 in. if it is subjected to the force the 500lb determine the max normal stress developed
Kipish [7]
The normal stress follows the formula written below:

σ = F/A

There are two types of stress, axial and tangential. Since we are only given with the dimension of the radius (and not the length), the possible stress is axial. So, the area is,

A = πr² = π(0.75 in)² = 1.767 in²

So,
σ = F/A = 500 lb/1.767 in² = <em>282.94 psi</em>

A 0.150 kg baseball has 118 j of KE. how fast is the ball moving?(unit=m/s)
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Explanation 118 = (1/2) * 0.15 * v² 118 = 0.075 * v² v² = 1573.33 m/s ... since KE = m/2*V^2 , then : V = √2KE/m = √20*118/1.5 = 39.67 m//sec ( 142.8 km/h ; 88.75 mph).:

mass of the planet is 12 times that of earth and its radius is thrice that of earth , then find the escape velocity on that plan
Over [174]

Answer:

The escape velocity on the planet is approximately 178.976 km/s

Explanation:

The escape velocity for Earth is therefore given as follows

The formula for escape velocity, v_e, for the planet is v_e = \sqrt{\dfrac{2 \cdot G \cdot m}{r} }

Where;

v_e = The escape velocity on the planet

G = The universal gravitational constant = 6.67430 × 10⁻¹¹ N·m²/kg²

m = The mass of the planet = 12 × The mass of Earth, M_E

r = The radius of the planet = 3 × The radius of Earth, R_E

The escape velocity for Earth, v_e_E, is therefore given as follows;

v_e_E = \sqrt{\dfrac{2 \cdot G \cdot M_E}{R_E} }

\therefore v_e = \sqrt{\dfrac{2 \times G \times 12 \times M}{3 \times R} } =  \sqrt{\dfrac{2 \times G \times 4 \times M}{R} } = 16 \times \sqrt{\dfrac{2 \times G \times M}{R} } = 16 \times v_e_E

v_e = 16 × v_e_E

Given that the escape velocity for Earth, v_e_E ≈ 11,186 m/s, we have;

The escape velocity on the planet = v_e ≈ 16 × 11,186 ≈ 178976 m/s ≈ 178.976 km/s.

The balance between incoming solar energy and out going energy radiated into space is called...
marin [14]
Based on the physics principle of conservation of energy, this radiation budget represents the accounting of the balance between incoming radiation, which is almost entirely solar radiation, and outgoing radiation, which is partly reflected solar radiation and partly radiation emitted from the Earth system, including the atmosphere.
