How high would you have to lift a 1000kg car to give it a potential energy of:

Physics
1 answer:
Elza [17]3 years ago
5 0

Given parameters:

Mass of the car = 1000kg

Unknown:

Height  = ?

To find the heights for the different amount potential energy given, we need to understand what potential energy is.

Potential energy is the energy at rest due to the position of a body.

 It is mathematically expressed as:

          P.E  = mgh

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

h is the height of the car

Now the unknown is h, height and we make it the subject of the expression to make for easy calculation.

               h = \frac{P.E }{mg}

<u>For 2.0 x 10³ J;</u>

                  h  = \frac{2000}{1000 x 9.8}   = 0.204m

<u>For 2.0 x 10⁵ J;</u>

                  h  = \frac{200000}{9.8 x 1000}   = 20.4m

<u>For 1.0kJ  = 1 x 10³J; </u>

                  h  = \frac{1000}{9.8 x 1000}   = 0.102m

loris [4]

Answer:

The angle for the forward Mach line is 19.47°

The angle for the rearward Mach line is 5.21°

Explanation:

From table A-1 (Modern Compressible Flow: with historical perspective):

\frac{P_{o} }{P_{1} } =36.73 (M₁ = 3)

If Po₁ = Po₂

\frac{P_{o2} }{P_{2} } =\frac{P_{o1} }{P_{1} } *\frac{P_{1} }{P_{2} } =36.73*\frac{1}{4} =91.825

Table A-1:

\frac{P_{o2} }{P_{2} } =91.825,M_{2} =3.63

Table A-5:

v₁ = 49.76°

μ₁ = 19.47°

v₂ = 60.55°

μ₂ = 16°

θ = 60.55 - 49.76 = 10.79°

The angle for the forward Mach line is:

μ₁ = 19.47°

The angle for the rearward Mach line is:

θr = μ₂ - θ = 16 - 10.79 = 5.21°

When performing an.experiment similar to Millikan's oil drop, a student measured the following load magnitudes: 3.26x10 ^-19 C 5
Scilla [17]

Answer:

1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

Explanation:

Let us arrange the charges in the ascending order and round them off as follows :-

1.53 x 10⁻¹⁹ C   → 1.6x 10⁻¹⁹ C

3.26 x 10⁻¹⁹C   → 3.2 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

4.66 x 10⁻¹⁹C   → 4.8 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

5.09 x 10⁻¹⁹C   → 4.8 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

6.39 x 10⁻¹⁹C   → 6.4 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

The rounding off has been made to facilitate easy calculation to come to a conclusion and to accommodate error in measurement.

Here we observe that

2 nd charge is almost twice the first charge

3 rd and 4 th charges are almost 3 times the first charge

5 th charge is almost 4 times the first charge.

This result implies that 2 nd to 5 th charges are made by combination of the first charge ie if we take e as first  charge , 2nd to 5 th charges can be  written as 2e,  3e ,3e and 4e. Hence e is the minimum charge existing in nature and on electron this minimum charge of  1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C  exists.

AIR MASSES!!
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

A : hot and moist, maritime tropical

B: cold and dry, maritime polar

C: hot and moist , maritime tropical

D: cold and dry, continental polar

E: hot and moist , maritime tropical

F: cold and dry , maritime polar

Explanation:

Cold air is denser than warm air. The more water vapor that is in the air, the less dense the air becomes. That is why cold, dry air is much heavier than warm, humid air.

Maritime polar (mP) air masses are cool, moist, and unstable. Some maritime polar air masses originate as continental polar air masses over Asia and move westward over the Pacific, collecting warmth and moisture from the ocean. 

Maritime tropical (mT) air masses are warm, moist, and usually unstable.
