Answer: 1.03 × 10⁵ N

Explanation:

Force of gravity due to liquid column in a tank is given by the product of pressure due to the liquid column and area on which this pressure is acting.

Force, F = P × A

Pressure, P = ρ g h

where, ρ is the density of the liquid

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height of the liquid column

It is given that, h = 7 m

Area, A = 1.5 m²

g = 9.81 m/s²

density of water, ρ = 1000 kg/m³

⇒ F =  ρ g h × A = 1000 kg/m³ × 9.81 m/s² × 7 m × 1.5 m² = 103005 N

Hence, force of gravity acting on the column of water is 1.03 × 10⁵ N

an electron is released from rest in a region of space with a nonzero electric field.1. As the electron moves, does the electric
zvonat [6]

Answer:

1. a. increase

2. Because the electron has a negative charge its electric potential energy does not decrease as one might expect, but increases instead.

Explanation:

Lets first consider the relation between the electric field and electric potential.

E = -ΔV/Δs

As this equation indicates that the electric field is due to the change in potential and change in the the position of charge. Electric field is directed towards the decreasing potential and the electron moves in the opposite direction of the electric field  where potential increases. Thats why the best explanation is that the electron has a negative charge it moves towards the positive region where the electric potential energy increases.

The diagram shows a ball resting at the top of a hill.
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

a) The potential energy in the system is greatest at X.

Explanation:

Let be X the point where a ball rests at the top of a hill. By applying the Principle of Energy Conservation, the total energy in the physical system remains constant and gravitational potential energy at the top of the hill is equal to the sum of kinetic energy, a lower gravitational energy and dissipated work due to nonconservative forces (friction, dragging).

U_{grav, X} = U_{grav, Y} + K_{Y} + \Delta W_{X \rightarrow Y} = U_{grav,Z}+\Delta W_{X \rightarrow Z}

Conclusions are showed as follows:

a) The potential energy in the system is greatest at X.

b) The kinetic energy is the lowest at X and Z.

c) Total energy remains constant as the ball moves from X to Y.

Hence, the correct answer is A.

if an average cloud has a density of 0.5 g/m3 and has a volume of 1,000,000,000 m3,what is the weight of an average cloud
sveta [45]

If you have (1 x 10⁹) cubic meters of volume, and 1/2 gram of mass
in each cubic meter, then you have

          (1/2 x 10⁹) grams = (5 x 10⁸) grams = (5 x 10⁵) kilograms of mass . 

On Earth, that mass weighs  4,900,000 newtons .

                                            (about  1,102,300 pounds)

                                            (about  551 tons)
