PE stands for Potential Energy. It is the stored energy in an object due to its position with respect to some reference. It is expressed in Joules.

P.E = m * g * h    OR  P.E. = mgh

m - mass of the body
g - acceleration due to gravity
h - height attained due to the body's displacement.

K.E. stands for Kinetic Energy. It is the energy possessed by a body due to its motion.

K.E = 1/2 mv²    where m = mass of the body; v = velocity with which the body is moving.

From the law of conservation of momentum
m1u1+ m2u2= m1v1+ m2v2
110*8+ 110*-10= 110*-10 + 110* v2
v2= 8 m/sec

A 12.0 cm object is 9.0 cm from a convex mirror that has a focal length of -4.5 cm. What is the distance of the image from the m
Rasek [7]

Answer:

- 3 cm

Explanation:

From the mirror formula;

1/f = 1/v + 1/u ; where f is the focal length, v is the image distance, and u is the object distance.

1/-4.5 = 1/9 + 1/v

1/v = -1/4.5 - 1/9

    = -1/3

Therefore;

v = -3 cm

Hence;

Image distance is - 3cm

What force is needed to accelerate a child on a sled (total mass = 65.0 kg ) at 1.25 m/s2?
ratelena [41]
Given; Mass m = 65.0 Kg;   acceleration a = 1.25 m/s²

Required: Force F = ?

Formula: F =ma

               F = (65.0 Kg)(1.25 m/s²)

               F = 81.25 N
