What is ONE variable that will change the amount of POTENTIAL ENERGY<br> of a box on the floor?
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

The height or the mass

Explanation:

The one variable that can change the potential energy of a box on the floor is either the height or the mass of the box.

Potential energy is the energy due to the position of a body.

Mathematically;

  Potential energy  = mass x acceleration due to gravity x height

Therefore, if the mass of the box is changed, the potential energy changes also.

If the position of the box is changed by raising it up, the potential energy changes

If an object on a horizontal frictionless surface is attached to a spring, displaced, and then released, it oscillates. Suppose
o-na [289]

Answer:

a. Amplitude = 0.244 meters

b. Period = 1.62 seconds

c. Frequency = 0.6173 Hz

Explanation:

a.

With the position goes from 0.122 meters to -0.122 meters (negative because it is in the opposite side of the equilibrium point), the amplitude is the maximum value minus the minimum value:

Amplitude = 0.122 - (-0.122) = 0.122 + 0.122 = 0.244 meters

b.

The period is the amount of time the object takes to arrive in the same position again. So, if it takes 0.81 seconds to go to -0.122 m, it will take another 0.81 seconds to come back to 0.122 m, so the period is the sum of these two times:

Period = 0.81 + 0.81 + 1.62 seconds

c.

The frequency of the movement is the inverse of the period:

Frequency  = 1 / Period

So if the period is 1.62 seconds, the frequency is:

Frequency = 1 / 1.62 = 0.6173 Hertz

1. A 65 kg student, starting from rest, slides down an 16.2 m high water slide. On the way down, friction does 5700 J of work on
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

11.94

Explanation:

Remark

Find the Potential Energy at the top.

Givens

m = 65 kg

h = 16.2 m

g = 9.81

PE = 65 * 9.81 * 16.2

PE = 10329.93

The tricky part is what do you do about Friction?

Formula

PE = Friction + KE

Solution

PE = 10329.93 Joules

Friction = 5700 Joules

Find the KE

10329.93 = 5700 + KE

KE = 10329.93 - 5700

KE = 4629.93

Find V from the KE formula

KE = 4629.93

m = 65

KE = 1/2 m v^2

KE = 1/2 65 v^2

4629.93 = 1/2 65 v^2

v^2 = 142.46

v = √142.46

v = 11.94

In how many places did the object stop moving? How do you know?
scZoUnD [109]

Explanation:

The object stops moving in 5 places (namely B, D, F, H, and position after 28 seconds which isn't marked ).

We know that the object has stopped moving, since its position does not change with the passage of time i.e. at rest.
