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

A light ray moving at a 54.3 deg
MrMuchimi

Answer:

45.25^{\circ}

Explanation:

Applying Snell's law

n_1sin\theta_1 = n2*sin\theta_2\\1.33*sin(54.3) = 1.52*sin\theta_2\\sin\theta_2 = 1.33*0.81208353/1.52 = 0.71057\\\theta_2=sin^{-1} (0.71057)\\\theta_2 = 45.25^{\circ}

The speed of the wave depends on what?
kolbaska11 [484]

The speed of a mechanical wave depends on the mechanical properties
of the medium through which the wave is traveling.

The speed of an electromagnetic wave depends on the electrical properties
of the medium through which the wave is traveling.

It's pretty well unanimous for choice <em>A</em> .
