Answer: 1

an object positioned at some height in a gravitational field

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy of an object is the energy stored due to position of the object or position at certain height relative to zero position.

Gravitational potential energy can also be expressed as object position at some height above or below zero position in a gravitational field

I think 1 and 2 make sense. But 1 make more sense than 2

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

15.2 s

Explanation:

Convert hp to W:

55.0 hp × 746 W/hp = 41,030 W

Power = energy / time

41030 W = 6.22×10⁵ J / t

t = 15.2 s

4vir4ik [10]

The speed is 0.956 m / s.

Explanation:

The kinetic energy is equal to the product of half of an object's mass, and the square of the velocity.

K.E = 1/2 $\times$ m $\times$ $v^{2}$

where K.E represents the kinetic energy,

m represents the mass,

v represents the velocity.

K.E = 1/2 $\times$ m $\times$ $v^{2}$

1.10 $\times$ 10^42 = 1/2 $\times$ 3.26 $\times$ 10^31 $\times$ $v^{2}$

$v^{2}$ = (1.10 $\times$ 10^42 $\times$ 2) / (3.26 $\times$ 10^31)

v = 0.956 m / s.

Un vas plin cu lichid cântăreşte 175kg. Ceea ce reprezintă de 5 ori masa vasului gol. Ştiind că volumul interior al vasului este

Mariana [72]

a) Density of the liquid: $823.5kg/m^3$

b) Weight of the liquid: 1372 N

Explanation:

Translation of the text:

"A full tank with liquid weighs 175kg. Which is 5 times the mass of the empty vessel. Knowing that the inside volume of the vessel is 0.17kl, calculate:

a) the density of the liquid;

b) the weight of the liquid."

We know that the full tank with liquid has a total mass of M = 175 kg. We can write the total mass as

$M=m_L + m_V$ (1)

where

$m_L$ is the mass of the liquid

$m_V$ is the mass of the vessel

We also know that the total mass M is 5 times the mass of the empty vessel, so we have:

$M=5m_V\\m_V=\frac{M}{5}=\frac{175}{5}=35 kg$

which is the mass of the empty vessel.

Therefore, we can find the mass of the liquid only using (1):

$m_L=M-m_V=175-35=140 kg$

The density of the liquid is given by

$d=\frac{m}{V}$

where

m = 140 kg (mass of the liquid)

V = 0.170 kL = 170 L = $0.170 m^3$ (volume of the liquid, which is equal to the volume of the vessel)

So we get

$d=\frac{140}{0.170}=823.5kg/m^3$

The weight of a body is given by

$F=mg$

where

m is its mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity

For the liquid in this problem, we have

m = 140 kg (mass)

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ (acceleration due to gravity)

Therefore, its weight is

$F=(140)(9.8)=1372 N$

Nataliya [291]

Work is defined as the force times the distance which is mathematically expressed W = Fxd. The given force is 5x10^4 and the distance is 10000 m (the distance is converted as meter because Nm = J) the work done by the wind is W = 5x10^4 N (10000) = 500 x 10^6 Joules. I hope it answered your question
