<span>the gravational potential energy of anything on the ground is zero. When calculating potential energy you take height in meters and multiply it by the mass of the object in kilograms and the acceleration of gravity to get a new unit called Joules. Any object at ground level has a potential energy of zero newtons becuase anything multiplied by zero is zero. An object with mass of 54 kg, 4 meters above the ground has a gravitatinal potential energy of 2116.8 Joules.</span>

Answer:

The gravitational potential energy of pole voulter is 2160\ J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the pole vaulter, m = 54 kg

Height it rises, h = 4 m

To find,

The gravitational potential energy.

Solution,

We know , gravitational potential energy of an object of mass m and height h is given by m\times g\times h.Here g is acceleration due to gravity=10 m/s^2.

E=m\times g\times h\\=54\times 10 \times 4\ J=2160\ J.

Therefore, the gravitational potential energy of pole voulter is 2160\ J.

Hence, this is the required solution.

A 25N force is acting on a body moving on a straight line with Initial momentum 20 kam's. Find the final momentum after 4 second
Nezavi [6.7K]

The final momentum of the body is equal to 120 Kg.m/s.

<h3>What is momentum?</h3>

Momentum can be described as the multiplication of the mass and velocity of an object. Momentum is a vector quantity as it carries magnitude and direction.

If m is an object's mass and v is its velocity then the object's momentum p is: {\displaystyle \mathbf {p} =m\mathbf {v} . The S.I. unit of measurement of momentum is kg⋅m/s, which is equivalent to the N.s.

Given the initial momentum of the body = Pi = 20 Kg.m/s

The force acting on the body, Pf = 25 N

The time, Δt = 4-0 = 4s

The Force is equal to the change in momentum: F ×Δt = ΔP

25 × 4 = P - 20

100 = P - 20

P = 100 + 20 = 120  Kg.m/s

Therefore, the final momentum of a body is 120 Kg.m/s.

There are 2.2 pounds in a kilogram. if a boys mass is 40kg, what is his height in pounds?
sasho [114]
The simplest way to do this is to set up equivalent fractions, like this- 

\frac{1}{2.2} = \frac{40}{x}

Solve for x by using cross multiplication.

40*2.2= 88
1*x=88
x=88

Therefore, the boy weighs 88lbs.

A net force of 125 N accelerates a 25.0 kg mass. What is the resulting acceleration?
Neko [114]

Answer: a=5 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object can be calculated by using Newton's second law:

F=ma

where

F is the net force applied on the object

m is the mass of the object

a is its acceleration

In this problem, we have F=125 N and m=25.0 kg, so we can rearrange the equation to calculate the acceleration:

a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{125 N}{25.0 kg}=5 m/s^2
