Answer:

0.2 kg

Explanation:

Height of roof from the ground=h=30 m

Gravitational potential energy=P.E=58.8 J

We have to find the mass of the ball.

We know that

Gravitational potential energy of ball= mgh

Where g=9.8 m/s^2

Substitute the values

58.8=m\times 9.8\times 30

58.8=294 m

m=\frac{58.8}{294}

Using division property of equality

m=0.2 kg

Hence, the mass of ball=0.2 kg

We are given the gravitational potential energy and the height of the ball and is asked in the problem to determine the mass of the ball. the formula to be followed is PE = mgh where g is the gravitational acceleration equal to 9.81 m/s^2. substituting, 58.8 J = m*9.8 m/s^2 * 30 m; m = 0.2 kg.

An overhead electric power line carries a maximum current of 125 A. What is the magnitude of the maximum magnetic field at a poi
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

B= 55.6×10^(-7) Tesla

Explanation:

B= μoI/(2πr)

B:  magnetic field strength

μo: permeability of free space and is equal to  4π×10^(-7) T.m/A

r: distance from the wire

I : current in the wire

B= (4π×10^(-7)×125)/(2π×4.5)

B= 55.6×10^(-7) Tesla

The atlas stone’s is a strong man competition where athletes have to load 5 stones of masses 100kg, 120kg, 140kg, 160kg and 180k
lyudmila [28]

Answer: 6250 joules

Explanation:

The work needed to lift an object of mass M by a height H is equal to:

w = M*g*H

where h = 10m/s^2

then the total work that he did is equal to the sum of the work for every stone:

W = (100kg*g*H) + (120kg*g*H) + (140kg*g*H) + (160kg*g*H) + (180kg*g*H)

 = (100kg + 120kg + 140kg + 160kg + 180kg)*g*H

= (500kg)*g*H

and now we can repalce g by 10m/s^2 and H by 125cm

But you can notice that we have two different units of distance, so knowing that 100cm = 1m

we can write H =  125cm = (125/100) m = 1.25 m

Then we have:

H = 500kg*10m/s^2*1.25m = 6250 J

Two pendulum bobs have equal masses and lengths (8.100 m). bob a is initially held horizontally while bob b hangs vertically at
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]
Since both hv same mass and elsstic collision, so their velocity will exchange. Bob A will stop and bob B will move with speed of A just before the collision.

Speed will be = squreroot ( 2*g*L)

L is length of pendulum

Describe two sources of earth's energy that are not produced
Anvisha [2.4K]
Here is the answer. Two sources of Earth's energy that are not produced would be Cosmic rays and Tidal Energy. Cosmic rays <span>are high-energy protons and atomic nuclei that come from outside the solar system. Whereas, tidal energy is the energy produced by both the moon (2/3) and the sun (1/3). Hope this answers your question.</span>

(HELP!! 10pts) a train travels 75km in 1hr, and then 68km in 2hrs. what is its average speed?
blondinia [14]
Average speed = total distance travelled ÷ total time taken

AS = (75km + 68km) ÷ (1hr + 2hr)

As = 143km ÷ 3hr

AS = 47.66667 km/hr

AS = 47.7 km/hr (3sf)
