A block is sitting on a platform 20 m high. It weighs 50 kg. How much potential energy does it contain?

Which type of force can be in the same it opposite direction?

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

C) unbalanced

Explanation:

Equal forces acting in opposite directions are called balanced forces. Balanced forces acting on an object will not change the object's motion. When you add equal forces in opposite direction, the net force is zero.

The PV system is operating in a location where the annual average daily incident solar energy (the insolation) on the array equa

vlabodo [156]

The average amount of solar energy incident on the PV per day is 10000 kWh/day.

<h3>Equation</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Let the PV array has an area equal to 50 square meters. Hence:

Average amount of solar energy incident on the PV per day = 200 kWh/m²/day * 50 m² = 10000 kWh/day.

The capacitance of A conductor is affected by the presence of A second conductor that is uncharged and isolated electrically. Wh

Komok [63]

What happens is the potential value of the conductor decreases due to the presence of second conductor
as the capacitance is given by C = q/v
the value of v deceases as v-v1
thus the new capacitance is = C' = q/v-v1 thus the lowering of v increases the capacitance

A beam of monochromatic light with a wavelength of 400 nm in air travels into water. what is the wavelength of the light in wate

slava [35]

The refractive index of water is $n=1.33$ . This means that the speed of the light in the water is:
$v= \frac{c}{n}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{1.33 }=2.26 \cdot 10^8 m/s$

The relationship between frequency f and wavelength $\lambda$ of a wave is given by:
$\lambda= \frac{v}{f}$
where v is the speed of the wave in the medium. The frequency of the light does not change when it moves from one medium to the other one, so we can compute the ratio between the wavelength of the light in water $\lambda_w$ to that in air $\lambda$ as
$\frac{\lambda_w}{\lambda}= \frac{ \frac{v}{f} }{ \frac{c}{f} } = \frac{v}{c}$
where v is the speed of light in water and c is the speed of light in air. Re-arranging this formula and by using $\lambda=400 nm$ , we find
$\lambda_w = \lambda \frac{v}{c}=(400 nm) \frac{2.26 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}=301 nm$
which is the wavelength of light in water.

if you run around a circle at 4.5 m/s and the circle has a radius of 7.7 m, what is your centripetal acceleration?

madreJ [45]

Answer:

Centripetal acceleration,

$a_{c} =2.63\ m/s^{2} }$

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration:

Centripetal acceleration is the idea that any object moving in a circle, in something called circular motion, will have an acceleration vector pointed towards the center of that circle.

Centripetal means towards the center.

Examples of centripetal acceleration (acceleration pointing towards the center of rotation) include such situations as cars moving on the cicular part of the road.

An acceleration is a change in velocity.

Formula for Centripetal acceleration:

$a_{c} =\frac{(velocity)^{2} }{radius}$

Given here,

Velocity = 4.5 m/s

radius = 7.7 m

To Find :

$a_{c} = ?$

Solution:

We have,

$a_{c} =\frac{(velocity)^{2} }{radius}$

Substituting given value in it we get

$a_{c} =\frac{(4.5)^{2}}{7.7} \\\\a_{c} =\frac{20.25}{7.7}\\\\a_{c} =2.629\ m/s^{2} \\\\\therefore a_{c} =2.63\ m/s^{2$

Centripetal acceleration,

$a_{c} =2.63\ m/s^{2} }$
