To summarize, potential energy is the energy that is stored in an object due to its position relative to some zero position. An object possesses gravitational potential energy if it is positioned at a height above the zero height.

The plane of a rectangular coil, 3.7 cm by 3.7 cm, is perpendicular to the direction of a uniform magnetic field B. If the coil

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:3.77 T/s

Explanation:

Given

Area of cross-section $=3.7\times 3.7 cm^2=13.69 cm^2$

N=no of turns=61

Resistance= $R=8 \Omega$

current (i)=0.04 A

emf induced $=i\times R=0.04\times 8=0.32 V$

emf induced $e=NA\frac{\mathrm{d} B}{\mathrm{d} t}$

$0.32=62\times 13.69\times 10^{-4}\times \frac{\mathrm{d} B}{\mathrm{d} t}$

$\frac{\mathrm{d} B}{\mathrm{d} t}=\frac{0.32\times 10^4}{848.78}=3.77 T/s$

A child’s toy that is made to shoot ping pong balls consists of a tube, a spring (k = 18 N/m) and a catch for the spring that ca

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

The height is 3.1m

Explanation:

Here we have a conservation of energy problem, we have a conversion form eslastic potencial energy to gravitational potencial energy, so:

$E_e=\frac{1}{2}K*x^2\\E_e=\frac{1}{2}18N/m*(9.5*10^{-2}m)^2\\E_e=0.081J$

then we have only gravitational potencial energy when the ball is at its maximun height.

$E_g=m*g*h$

because all the energy was transformed Eg=Ee

$h=\frac{0.081J}{9.8m/s^2*m}$

searching the web, the mass of a ping pong ball is 2.7 gr in average. so:

$h=\frac{0.081J}{9.8m/s^2*(2.7*10^{-3}kg)}\\h=3.1m$

a care starting from rest has an acceleration 0.3 m/s square, calculate the velocity and distance travelled by this car after 2

Anna [14]

Answer:

Final velocity (v) = 36 m/s

Distance traveled (s) = 2,160 m

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity (u) = 0

Acceleration (a) = 0.3 m/s

Time travel (t) = 2 minutes = 120 seconds

Find:

Final velocity (v) = ?

Distance traveled (s) = ?

Computation:

v = u + at

v = 0 + 0.3(120)

v = 0.3(120)

v = 36 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 36 m/s

Distance traveled (s) = ut + (1/2)at²

Distance traveled (s) = (0.5)(0.3 × 120 × 120)

Distance traveled (s) = 2,160 m

A pickup truck is being driven down the highway carrying eight 100 gallon fish tank full of water. A hole is punctured in each t

irakobra [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

The velocity of the vehicle would increase because the the tanks (when filled with water) must have exerted a force which would reduce the velocity of the vehicle at a certain pressure on the gas pedal. Note that force equals mass multiplied by acceleration; as the mass decreases, so the force decreases. Thus, when the mass exerted by this tanks (on the vehicle) decrease as a result of the hole punctured in them, the force exerted by the tanks would also decrease causing an increase in velocity of the pick up truck when the same pressure is applied on the gas pedal throughout (before and after the puncture).

The conservation law that applied here is the law of conservation of energy which states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another. This is because the energy the vehicle used in carrying the load (the tanks) was transformed to the energy that resulted in increasing it's velocity (no new energy was formed as the pressure on the gas pedal remained the same).
