Answer:

The height at which the object is moved is 10 meters.

Explanation:

Given that,

Force acting on the object, W = F = 490 N

The gravitational potential energy, P = 4900 J

We need to find the height at which the object is moved. We know that the gravitational potential energy is possessed due to its position. It is given by :

$P=mgh\\\\h=\dfrac{P}{mg}\\\\h=\dfrac{4900\ J}{490\ N}\\\\h=10\ m$

So, the height at which the object is moved is 10 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

Which type of bond will sulfer (S) and nitrogen (N) form?

otez555 [7]

Answer:

In ionic compounds, electrons are transferred between atoms of different elements ... For example, two hydrogen atoms bond covalently to form an H2 molecule; each ... is released when one mole of H2 molecules forms from two moles of H atoms: ... atom in each pair is more electronegative: (a) N or P. (b) N or Ge. (c) S or F.

GarryVolchara [31]

newton 1st law: w no external force, a body will stay at rest or in constant uniform motion.

a motor raises the car up the tower. cuz it moves w/ constant vel, there is no external force: the motor force is the same n in opposity direction as the gravity force on car.

A bicyclist is traveling at a speed of 20.0 m/s as he approaches the bottom of a hill. He decides to coast up the hill and stops

Answer:

Vertical height of the hill, h = 20.4 meters

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of the bicyclist, v = 20 m/s

To find,

The vertical height of the hill.

Solution,

Let h is the height of the hill. When he approaches the bottom of the hill, the loss in kinetic energy is equal to the gain in potential energy. Using the conservation of energy as,

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh$

$h=\dfrac{v^2}{2g}$

$h=\dfrac{(20)^2}{2\times 9.8}$

h = 20.4 meters

Therefore, the vertical height of the hill is 20.4 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.
