Which has more gravitational potential energy: a 300 N cat at a height of 6 meters or a 50 N bird at a height of 50 meters

Physics

Zolol [24]3 years ago

Gravitational Potential energy is given by the formula

U = mgH

so it is product of weight of object and its height

for PE of cat weight is given as 300 N at height 6 m

U_1 = 300 \times 6 = 1800 J

on other side we will have a bird of 50 N weight with height 50 m

U_2 = 50 \times 50 = 2500 J

now here we can see that it depends on the product of weight and height both

so here PE of bird will be more than the PE of Cat

Per person, the energy consumption in the United States is about 3.3 × 10^8 Btu/yr. This is equivalent to a power of:________. A
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

3.3\times 10^8\ btu/yr=11\ kW

Explanation:

Btu of British thermal unit is a unit of heat. The relation between btu/year and watts is given by :

1\ btu/yr=3.343\times 10^{-5}\ W\\\\3.3\times 10^8\ btu/yr=3.343\times 10^{-5}\times 3.3\times 10^8\ W\\\\3.3\times 10^8\ btu/yr=11031.9\ W\\\\3.3\times 10^8\ btu/yr=11\ kW

So,  3.3\times 10^8\ btu/yr is equal to 11 kW. Hence, the correct option is (d).

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

If an elements atomic mass and number are known you can also determine the number of protons and neutrons it has. You can also determine where it is on the periodic table. For example, if a element had a atomic mass of 10 then it would be higher up on the table then one with a mass of 20. Btw I do apex too.
