A spherical balloon has a radius of 6.95 m and is filled with helium. The density of helium is 0.179 kg/m3, and the density of a

ir is 1.29 kg/m3. The skin and structure of the balloon has a mass of 950 kg. Neglect the buoyant force on the cargo volume itself. Determine the largest mass of cargo the balloon can lift. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

volume of balloon

= 4/3 T R3

= 4/3 x 3.14 x 6.953

= 1405.47 m3

uplift force

= volume of balloon x density of air x 9.8

= = 1405.47 x 1.29 x 9.8

= 1813.05 x 9.8 N

weight of helium gas

= volume of balloon x density of helium x

9.8

= 1405.47 x .179 x 9.8

= 251.58 x 9.8 N

Weight of other mass = 930 x 9.8 N Total weight acting downwards

= 251.58 x 9.8 +930 x 9.8

= 1181.58 x 9.8 N

If W be extra weight the uplift can balance

1181.58 × 9.8 + W × 9.8 = 1813.05 * 9.8

1181.58+W=1813.05

W= 631.47 kg

A leopard of mass 65kg climbs 7m up a tall tree. Calculate how much gravitational potential energy it gains. Assume g=10N/kg.
vesna_86 [32]

Answer: 4550 Joules

The formula for potential energy in gravitational field is as follows:

E_{pot} = mgh=65kg \cdot 10 \frac{N}{kg} \cdot 7m = 4550 J

A major difference between radio waves, visible light, and gamma rays is the ____ of the photons, which results in the different
olga2289 [7]
The sentence can be completed as follows:
"<span>A major difference between radio waves, visible light, and gamma rays is the energy of the photons, which results in the different photon frequencies and wavelengths."

In fact, gamma rays have greater energy than visible light and visible light has greater energy than radio waves. The energy E of a photon is related to its frequency, f, by
</span>E=hf
<span>where h is the Planck constant. We see from this formula that the higher the frequency, the greater the energy. Instead, the wavelength is inversely proportional to the frequency:
</span>\lambda= \frac{c}{f}
<span>where c is the speed of light. Since the frequency is directly proportional to the energy, this means that the wavelength is inversely proportional to the energy.</span>

A 1300 kg car starts at rest and rolls down a hill from a height of 10.0 m. It then moves across a
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

0.51 m

Explanation:

Using the principle of conservation of energy, change in potential energy equals to the change in kinetic energy of the spring.

Kinetic energy, KE=½kx²

Where k is spring constant and x is the compression of spring

Potential energy, PE=mgh

Where g is acceleration due to gravity, h is height and m is mass

Equating KE=PE

mgh=½kx²

Making x the subject of formula

x=\sqrt {\frac {2mgh}{k}}

Substituting 9.81 m/s² for g, 1300 kg for m, 10m for h and 1000000 for k then

x=\sqrt \frac {2*1300*9.81*10}{1000000}=0.50503465227646m\\x\approx 0.51 m
