Answer:

P = 14700 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a piano, m = 75 kg

It is delivered throughout the window of a 6th story apartment which is 20 m above the ground.

We need to find the potential energy of the piano. It is given by :

P = mgh

Putting all the values,

P = 75 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 20 m

P = 14700 J

So, the potential energy of the piano is 14700 J.

- A capacitor's dielectric material is a vacuum. The capacitor's dielectric constant, or K, will be equal to
dlinn [17]

If  a capacitor's dielectric constant is vacuum its dielectric constant is k will be equal to 1.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Relative permittivity of  a dielectric substance is referred to as its dielectric constant. Relative permittivity/dielectric constant k is a dimensionless quantity that is the ratio of absolute permittivity and vacuum permittivity.

It is given by the expression

k=k=ε /ε0

where ε denotes absolute permittivity and  ε0 denotes permittivity of vacuuum.

Absolute permittivity  ε of vacuum= ε0

therefore k= ε0/ ε0=1

dielectric constant of vacuum is 1 .

A bullet can travel at a speed of over 1000 m/s. When a bullet is fired from a rifle, the actual firing makes a distinctive soun
slamgirl [31]

Explanation:

When a bullet is fired from a rifle, the actual firing makes a distinctive sound, but people at a distance may hear a second because the bullet creates a shock wave , a little sonic boom( speed of this sonic boom is greater than the speed of sound). It is this sound only that is heard by the people at a distance from the gun.

A wildlife researcher is tracking a flock of geese. The geese fly 4.0km due west, then turn toward the north by 40 degrees and f
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

(a). The distance from the initial position is 6.68 km.

(b).  The magnitude of their displacement is 7.05 km.

Explanation:

Given that,

Geese fly 4.0 km due west, then turn to north by 40° and fly another 3.5 km.

(a). We need to calculate the distance from the initial position

Using formula of distance

D=AB+BC\cos\theta

Put the value into the formula

D=4.0+3.5\cos40

D=6.68\ km

(b). We need to calculate the magnitude of their displacement

Using formula of displacement

AC=\sqrt{CD^2+AD^2}

AC=\sqrt{(3.5\sin40)^2+(6.68)^2}

AC=7.05\ Km

Hence, (a). The distance from the initial position is 6.68 km.

(b).  The magnitude of their displacement is 7.05 km.

A car drives at a constant speed of 21 m/s around a circle with radius 100 m. What is the centripetal acceleration of the car?
Sauron [17]

If you look below, we are using the centripetal acceleration formula.  You just need to plug your numbers in and it should work!A_c = \frac{v^2}{r} \\A_c=\frac{21^2}{100} \\A_c=\frac{441}{100} \\A_c= 4.41m/s/s
