Answer:

Mass of the box is 3.06 kg

Explanation:

Potential energy (that depends on gravity) is the type of energy which is stored that relies on the general position of different parts of a body. It is a property of a framework and not of an individual body or molecule; the framework made out of the Earth and the raised ball.

P.E = m.g.h Equation(1)

as we have to find the mass of the box then the formula for the mass will become

m=P.E/g(h) Equation(2)

as we know

P.E= 120J

h=4m

g=9.8m/s

g is the gravitational acceleration

putting values in the equation(2)

m = 120/9.8(4)

= 120/39.2

= 3.06 kg

mass of the box is 3.06 kg

Answer:

All the three quantities will have non zero joules.

Explanation:

At the initial position of rest the system will have only gravitational potential energy while the other 2 quantities will be zero.

when the system reaches a height (y-h) only kinetic energy will be zero while the other 2 quantities will be non zero

At the position of (y-h/2) all the 3 quantities will be non zero.

1. Consider the point exactly halfway between the two wires. Can you adjust the current so that, with current passing through ea

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

hello your question is incomplete attached below is missing part of the question

answer:

1 ) Magnetic field due to long current carrying wire : $B = \frac{U_{0} I}{2\pi d}$

Therefore the net magnetic field due the both wires ; B = B $_{1}$ + B $_{2}$ . when we adjust the current I $_{1}$ = I $_{2}$ then the Netfield (B ) = zero

2) The distance between the field lines are not equally spaced and this is because the separation between field lines increases with the increase in the distance between the wires

3) Increase in current through the wire will lead to increase in force and this can be explained via this equation

$F = \frac{U_{0}I_{1}I_{2} }{2\pi d }$

Which statement describes nuclear binding energy?

Tamiku [17]

The answer for Plato users is C. It is the energy that is required to overcome mass defect.

From Plato "Nuclear binding energy is the energy that is required to overcome the energy that is used to keep the nucleus together, the mass defect."
