6 0

Answer:

0 J

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is:

PE = mgh

where m is mass, g is acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height.

Right before the coin hits the ground, its height above the ground is 0 m, so the potential energy is:

PE = mgh

PE = (0.005 kg) (9.8 m/s²) (0 m)

PE = 0 J

some fuel cells are powered by hydrogen. scientists are looking into the decomposition of water (h2o) to make hydrogen fuel with
sesenic [268]

Answer : First of all, to harness the solar energy and utilize it for the decomposition of water to make hydrogen fuel cell seems to be easy but practically it has many hurdles in its way. It might not work well, when the days would not be sunny. Also, the production of hydrogen fuel would require decomposing water which may need a high energy of activation, which would be more than the energy that will be produced from the fuel cell.

solniwko [45]
Convert the given in SI units.

         (44 ft/sec)(1 m/ 3.28 ft) = 13.41 m/sec

The distance traveled and the initial velocity can be related through the equation,
  
   d = (Vf)² - (Vi)²/ 2a

where d is the distance, Vf is the final velocity, Vi is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration due to gravity. Substituting the known values from the given above,

    d = ((0 m/s)² - (13.41 m/s)²)/ 2(-9.8 m/s²)

The value of d from the equation,

    d = 9.17 meters

Convert this to feet,

    d = (9.17 m)(3.28 ft / 1 m) = 30 ft

Answer: 30 ft

An electron is accelrated by a unifor electric field (1000v/m) pointing vertically upward. Use energy methods to get the magnitu
ExtremeBDS [4]

Explanation:

In the given situation two forces are working. These are:

1) Electric force (acting in the downward direction) = qE

2) weight (acting in the downward direction) = mg

Therefore, work done by all the forces = change in kinetic energy

Hence, qE \times S + mg \times S = 0.5 \times mv^{2}

     1.6 \times 10^{-19} \times 1000 + 9.1 \times 10^{-31} \times 9.8 \times (\frac{0.10}{100}) = 0.5 \times 9.1 \times 10^{-31} \times v^{2}

It is known that the weight of electron is far less compared to electric force. Therefore, we can neglect the weight  and the above equation will be as follows.

   (1.6 \times 10^{-19} \times 1000) \times (\frac{0.10}{100}) = 0.5 \times 9.1 \times 10^{-31} \times v^{2
}

         v = sqrt{\frac{1.6 \times 10^{-19}}{(0.5 \times 9.1 \times 10^{-31})}

           = 592999 m/s

Since, the electron is travelling downwards it means that it looses the potential energy.
