What is the potential energy of a 2 kg ball 15 m in the air?

Physics
1 answer:
oee [108]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

<h2>300 J</h2>

Explanation:

The potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula

PE = mgh

where

m is the mass

h is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 10 m/s²

From the question we have

PE = 2 × 10 × 15

We have the final answer as

<h3>300 J</h3>

Hope this helps you

The de Broglie wave is produced only by sub atomic particle and photon. O True O False
Alina [70]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Matter can be in the form of a particle or a wave. This is known as the dual nature of matter. This concept was proposed by Louis de Broglie and was named after him. This phenomenon has been observed for all the elementary particles.

The de Broglie wavelength is given by

\lambda=\frac{h}{p}=\frac{h}{mv}

Where

h = Planck's constant

p = Particles momentum

m = Mass of particle

v = Velocity of particle

Two astronauts, each with a mass of 50 kg, are connected by a 7 m massless rope. Initially they are rotating around their center
kiruha [24]

Answer:

The angular  velocity is w_f =  1.531 \ rad/ s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The mass of each astronauts is  m =  50 \ kg

      The initial  distance between the two  astronauts  d_i  =  7 \  m

Generally the radius is mathematically represented as r_i  =  \frac{d_i}{2} = \frac{7}{2}  =  3.5 \  m

      The initial  angular velocity is  w_1 = 0.5 \  rad /s

       The  distance between the two astronauts after the rope is pulled is d_f =  4 \  m

Generally the radius is mathematically represented as r_f  =  \frac{d_f}{2} = \frac{4}{2}  =  2\  m

Generally from the law of angular momentum conservation we have that

           I_{k_1} w_{k_1}+ I_{p_1} w_{p_1} = I_{k_2} w_{k_2}+ I_{p_2} w_{p_2}

Here I_{k_1 } is the initial moment of inertia of the first astronauts which is equal to I_{p_1} the initial moment of inertia of the second astronauts  So

      I_{k_1} = I_{p_1 } =  m *  r_i^2

Also   w_{k_1 } is the initial angular velocity of the first astronauts which is equal to w_{p_1} the initial angular velocity of the second astronauts  So

      w_{k_1} =w_{p_1 } = w_1

Here I_{k_2 } is the final moment of inertia of the first astronauts which is equal to I_{p_2} the final moment of inertia of the second astronauts  So

      I_{k_2} = I_{p_2} =  m *  r_f^2

Also   w_{k_2 } is the final angular velocity of the first astronauts which is equal to w_{p_2} the  final angular velocity of the second astronauts  So

      w_{k_2} =w_{p_2 } = w_2

So

      mr_i^2 w_1 + mr_i^2 w_1 = mr_f^2 w_2 + mr_f^2 w_2

=>   2 mr_i^2 w_1 = 2 mr_f^2 w_2

=>   w_f =  \frac{2 * m * r_i^2 w_1}{2 * m *  r_f^2 }

=>    w_f =  \frac{3.5^2 *  0.5}{  2^2 }

=>   w_f =  1.531 \ rad/ s

You are holding a positive charge and there are positive charges of equal magnitude 1 mm to your north and 1 mm to your east. Wh
lara [203]

If I hold a positive charge in my hand and there are positive charges of equal magnitude 1 mm to your north and 1 mm to your east then the direction of the force on the charge I am holding is towards the north-east direction.

Reasoning:

It is given that there is a positive charge in my hand. There are two more positive charges with the same magnitude. One is 1 mm far towards the east, and the other one is 1 mm far towards the north. It is required to find the direction of the force acting on the charge in my hand.

Let the magnitude of the charge in my hand is Q, and the magnitude of the other charges is q.

Thus the electric force applied on the charge in my hand due to each other is,

F=\frac{kQq}{r^2}

Here k is the Coulomb constant, and r is the distance between the charges.

It is also known that the force on a positive charge due to another positive charge is acted outwards.

Thus, the force on the charge due to the charge on the east is,

\vec{F_1}=\frac{kQq}{( 10^{-3}\text{ m})^2}\hat{i}

And the force on the charge due to the charge on the north is,

\vec{F_2}=\frac{kQq}{( 10^{-3}\text{ m})^2}\hat{j}

As the forces are equal in magnitude and one is perpendicular to the other, thus the net force will be acted at an angle of 45^\circ from the north or from the north direction.

Thus the net force is acting in the north-east direction.

a moving billiard ball collides with an identical stationary billiard ball in an elastic collision. after the collision, the sec
MArishka [77]

A billiard ball collides with a stationary identical billiard ball to make it move. If the collision is perfectly elastic, the first ball comes to rest after collision.

<h3>Why does the first ball comes to rest after collision ?</h3>

Let m be the mass of the two identical balls.  

u1 = velocity before the collision of ball 1

u2 = 0 = velocity of second ball that is at rest

v1 and v2 are the velocities of the balls after the collision.

From the conservation of momentum,

∴ mu1 + mu2 = mv1 + mv2

∴ mu1 = mv1 + mv2

∴ u1 = v1 + v2

In an elastic collision, the kinetic energy of the system before and after collision remains same.

\frac{1}{2}  mu_1^2+0=\frac{1}{2}  mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2}  mv_2^2

∴  \frac{1}{2}  m(v_1+v_2 )^2=\frac{1}{2} mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2}mv_2^2

∴ \frac{1}{2} mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2} mv_2^2+mv_1 v_2=\frac{1}{2}  mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2} mv_2^2

∴ mv₁v₂ = 0

  1. It is impossible for the mass to be zero.
  2. Because the second ball moves, velocity v2 cannot be zero.
  3. As a result, the velocity of the first ball, v1, is zero, indicating that it comes to rest after collision.
<h3>What is collision ?</h3>

An elastic collision is a collision between two bodies in which the total kinetic energy of the two bodies remains constant. There is no net transfer of kinetic energy into other forms such as heat, noise, or potential energy in an ideal, fully elastic collision.
