Answer:

<h2> $\boxed{ \bold{ \purple{0.0769 \: kg \: }}}$ </h2>

Explanation:

$\sf{Potential Energy ( P.E ) \: = \: 20.8 \: joule}$

$\sf{distance \: = 27.6 \: metre}$

$\sf{mass = }$ ?

$\sf{acceleration \: due \: to \: gravity = 9.68 \: {metre \: per \: second}^{2} }$

Now, let's find the mass:

$\sf{PE \: = mass \times gravity \: \times \: distance}$

plug the values

⇒ $\sf{20.8 = m \times 9.8 \times 27.6}$

Multiply the numbers

⇒ $\sf{20.8 = 270.48 \: m}$

Swap the sides of the equation

⇒ $\sf{270.48m = 20.8}$

Divide both sides of the equation by 270.48

⇒ $\sf{ \frac{270.48m}{270.48} = \frac{20.8}{270.48} }$

Calculate

⇒ $\sf{0.0769}$ kg

Hope I helped!

Best regards!!

Answer:

$\huge \boxed{\mathrm{0.0769 \ kg}}$

Explanation:

$\displaystyle \sf Mass=\frac{Potential \ energy}{Acceleration \ of \ gravity \times Height}$

$\displaystyle m=\frac{PE}{gh}$

$\mathrm{We \ need \ to \ find \ the \ mass.}$

$\displaystyle m=\frac{20.8}{9.8 \times 27.6}$

$m= 0.0769$

Which of these statements best proves that electromagnetic forces are weaker than strong nuclear forces? Neutrons do not repel o

musickatia [10]

Answer: <span>Protons do not move out of the nucleus of atoms although they repel each other.

Reasoning:

Remember that protons are particles with positive charge and they held together in the nucleus of the atom which is a tiny tiny region. As you know, like charges repel each other, which means that the protons exert a repulsion force.

That repulsion force tends to destabilize the atom. The only reason why the atom does not explode is because there is a there exists a force of attraction that exceeds the repulsion of the like charged protons. That is the strong nuclear force. Therefore, the strong nuclear forces are stronger than the electromagnetic force that tends to get the protons apart.

Ilya [14]

Answer:

a) F = -1035.385 N

b) Backwards

c) s = 15.60 m

Explanation:

Given information

$u$ = Initial Speed of Car = 15.0 m/s

$v$ = Final Speed of Car = 9.00 m/s

$t_{b}$ = Breaking Time = 1.30 s

$m$ = Mass of Car = 1040 kg

Part (a)

To find the force exerted on the car we use the following formula

$F = ma$

Where

$F$ = Force = unknown

$m$ = Mass of Car = 1040 kg

$a$ = Acceleration of Car / Deceleration of Car = unknown

To find the force (F) we need to first find the deceleration rate (a)

To find the deceleration rate we use the following formula

$a = \frac{v - u}{t}$

Inputting the given values

$a = \frac{15 - 9}{1.30} \\ a = -4.615$

To find the force

$F = ma \\ F = (1040)(-4.615) \\ F = (1040)(-4.615) \\ F = -1035.385 N$

Part (b)

Since the value of F is negative this means the the force was opposite the direction of motion, hence the force was backwards.

Part (c)

To find the total distance the car moved while braking we use the following formula

$v^2 = u^2 + 2as$

Where

$s$ = distance traveled

Inputting the values given

$(9)^2 = (15)^2 + 2(-4.615)s$

$s = 15.60 m$

What is a crystal as applied in physics

Scilla [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is - A matter that has an ordered arrangement of atoms, molecules, or ions.

Explanation:

In physics, a crystal is a type of solid matter in which a highly arranged molecule or atoms present to form a lattice that extended in all directions. It is a lightweight clear solid which is normally is colorless.

It can be cubic, hexagonal, triclinic, monoclinic, orthorhombic, tetragonal, and trigonal that are ordered arrangments. Its internal symmetry is visible to its surface.
