Calculate Gravitational Potential Energy for an object on Earth with a mass of 2 kg and a height of 7 m.
victus00 [196]

Answer:

137.2J

Explanation:

Ep= mgh

Given,

  • m=2kg
  • h=7m

and we know, g = 9.81 N/kg

Ep= 2 × 9.81 × 7

Ep= 137.2J

A woman takes her dog rover for a walk on a leash. She pulls on the leash with a force of 30.0 N at an angle of 29° above the ho

19.8 N force is tending to lift Rover vertically off the ground.

<h3>What is horizontal and vertical component?</h3>

The horizontal velocity component (v_{x}) describes the influence of the velocity in displacing the projectile horizontally. The vertical velocity component (v_{y}) describes the influence of the velocity in displacing the projectile vertically.

According to the question,

The women pulls the dog with a force of 30 N at an angle of  29° from the horizontal.

Horizontal component=  30cos(29°) = 22.2 N

Vertical component = 30sin(29°) = 19.8 N

Therefore,

The horizontal component would tend to make the dog move forward and the vertical component would tend lift it off the ground.

Hence,

19.8 N force is tending to lift Rover vertically off the ground.
