A 0.75 kilogram apple is thrown upward from the ground. The apple reaches a height of 5.5m, what is the beginning gravitational

potential energy of the Apple
Physics
1 answer:
MaRussiya [10]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

U(0.0m) = 0J

U(5.5m) = 40.42 J

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy is given by the following formula:

U=mgh

h: height

m: mass of the apple = 0.75kg

g: gravitational acceleration = 9.8m/s^2

When the apple is at 5.5m from the ground the gravitational potential energy is:

U=(0.75kg)(9.8m/s^2)(5.5m)=40.42\ J

when the apple is on the ground you have:

U=mg(0m)=0\ J

Block b rests upon a smooth surface. if the coefficients of static and kinetic friction between a and b are μs = 0.4 and μk = 0.
aliina [53]

Given

Weight of the block A, Wa = 20 lb, weight of block B Wb = 50 lb. Applied force to block A, P = 6lb, coefficient of static friction µs = 0.4, coefficient of kinetic friction µk = 0.3. If a force P is applied to the body, no relative motion will take place until the applied force is equal to the force of friction Ff, which is acting opposite to the direction of motion. Magnitude of static force of friction between block A and block B, Fs = µsN, where N is reaction force acting on block A. Now, resolve the forces Fx = max. P = (mA + mB)a,

 

6 = (20 / 32.2 + 50 / 32.2)a

 

2.173a = 6

 

A = 2.76 ft/s^2

 

To check slipping occurs between block A and block B, consider block A:

P – Ff = mAaA

6 – Ff = 1.71

Ff = 4.29 lb

 

And also,

N = wA. We know static friction,

Fs = µsN

Fs = 0.4 x 20

Fs = 8lb

Frictional force is less than static friction. Ff < Fs

<span>Therefors, acceleration of block A, aA = 2.76 ft/s^2, acceleration of block B aB = 2.76 ft/s^2</span>

A 12.0-cm long cylindrical rod has a uniform cross-sectional area A = 5.00 cm2. However, its density increases linearly from 2.6
andriy [413]

Answer:

(a) The constants required describing the rod's density are B=2.6 and C=1.325.

(b) The mass of the road can be found using A\int_0^{12}\left(B+Cx)dx

Explanation:

(a) Since the density variation is linear and the coordinate x begins at the low-density end of the rod, we have a density given by

2.6\frac{g}{cm^3}+\frac{18.5\frac{g}{cm^3}-2.6\frac{g}{cm^3}}{12 cm}x = 2.6\frac{g}{cm^3}+1.325x\frac{g}{cm^2}

recalling that the coordinate x is measured in centimeters.

(b) The mass of the rod can be found by having into account the density, which is x-dependent, and the volume differential for the rod:

m=\int\rho dv=\int\left(B+Cx\right)Adx=5\int_0^{12}\left(2.6+1.325x\right)dx=126.6,

hence, the mass of the rod is 126.6 g.

Explain how neurons convey information using both electrical and chemical signals.
8090 [49]

Answer:

Explanation:

Neurons communicate via both electrical signals and chemical signals. The electrical signals are action potentials, which transmit the information from one of a neuron to the other; the chemical signals are neurotransmitters, which transmit the information from one neuron to the next.

The electrical signal travels down the axon to the axon terminals where it tells the vesicles to release the neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft which travel to the receptors of the receiving cell which releases the second messengers
