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

6. A .25 kg arrow with a velocity of 12 m/s to the west strikes and pierces the center of a 6.8 kg target. a. What is the final
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

(a) the final velocity of the combined mass is 9.43 m/s

(b) the decrease in kinetic energy during the collision is 386.1 J

Explanation:

Given;

mass of arrow, m₁ = 25 kg

initial velocity of arrow, u₁ = 12 m/s

mass of target, m₂ = 6.8 kg

initial velocity of the target, u₂ = 0

Part (a)

From the principle of conservation of linear momentum;

Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁+m₂)

where;

v is the final velocity of the combined mass

25 x 12 + 0 = v(25 + 6.8)

300 = v(31.8)

v = 300/31.8

v = 9.43 m/s

Part(b)

Kinetic Energy, K.E = ¹/₂mv²

Initial kinetic energy =  ¹/₂m₁u₁² + ¹/₂m₂u₂²  = ¹/₂ x 25 x (12)² + 0 = 1800 J

Final kinetic energy = ¹/₂m₁v² + ¹/₂m₂v² = ¹/₂v²(m₁ + m₂)

                                                               = ¹/₂ x (9.43)²(25+6.8)

                                                               = 1413.91 J

Decrease in kinetic energy = Initial K.E - Final K.E

Decrease in kinetic energy = 1800J - 1413.91 J = 386.1 J

Which type of circuit would be best to use for lights used for decorations? Question 1 options: Series circuit. One bulb could g
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

One bulb could go out and the strand will stay on.

Explanation:

In series circuit, there is only one path provided for the current to flow. So, all the lights are required to be in working condition, for the others to work. And if anyone light bulb goes out, the circuit will become incomplete and the rest of the strand will also go out. Because there is only one path for current flow which is now broken.

On the other hand, in parallel circuits, each light bulb has a separate connection with the source. Current path to each bulb is independent of the others. Therefore, if one bulb goes out, the rest of the strand will stay on.

So, the correct option is:

<u>One bulb could go out and the strand will stay on.</u>
