Kevin jumps straight up in the air to a height of 1 meter.At the top of his jump, he has potential energy of 1,000 joules.Answer
Llana [10]
Gravitational potential energy can be given by the equation
PE = mgh
where m is the mass,
g is the gravitational constant 9.81 or 10 depending on rounding
and h is the height

well weight is a force equiavlent to
W= m*g

so comparing that to the potential energy equation, divide the potential energy by the height and you will get weight in Newtons

Which of the following procedures was done to minimize human error? We let the weight swing 25 times and divided by 25 to get th
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

T = 3.475 s

Time period is independent from mass

Explanation:

- To reduce the human error in taking any measurements we take multiple N number of readings. Then sum up all the readings and divide by N to find an average. The error between each individual reading and the actual reading is reduced by repetition.

- We use the plot of T^2 against L to form a linear relationship between two variables. We square the entire the equation for linearize the equation.

- Given, L = 3 m . The time period is approximated by a pendulum expression given as:

                                     T = 2*pi*sqrt ( L / g )

Where, g is the gravitational acceleration 9.81 m/s^2

- Then we have:

                                     T = 2*pi*sqrt ( 3 / 9.81 )

                                     T = 3.475 s

- From above expression we see that time period is independent from the mass at the end of the string but a function of pendulum geometry and kinetics.

A person pushes a 10 kg box from rest and accelerates it to a speed of 4 m/s with a constant force. If the box is pushed for a t
lutik1710 [3]

The box is accelerated from rest to 4 m/s in a matter of 2.5 s, so its acceleration <em>a</em> is such that

4 m/s = <em>a</em> (2.5 s)   →   <em>a</em> = (4 m/s) / (2.5 s) = 1.6 m/s²

Then the force applied to the box has a magnitude <em>F</em> such that

<em>F</em> = (10 kg) (1.6 m/s²) = 16 N
