Answer: D.) 39,200 J
Via the equation of potential energy PE = mgh where m is mass, g is the average gravity on earth and h is the height. In this case m = 400 kg, g = 9.8, h = 10 m thus:
P.E.= 39,200 Joules
Faster and higher I believe.
Take east to be the positive direction. Then the resultant force from adding <em>F</em>₁ and <em>F</em>₂ is
<em>F</em>₁ + <em>F</em>₂ = (-45 N) + 63 N = 18 N
which is positive, so it's directed east.
To this we add a third force <em>F</em>₃ such that the resultant is 12 N pointing west, making it negative, so that
18 N + <em>F</em>₃ = -12 N
<em>F</em>₃ = -30 N
So <em>F</em>₃ has a magnitude of 30 N and points west.
Answer:
51 Ω.
Explanation:
We'll begin by calculating the equivalent resistance of R₁ and R₃. This can be obtained as follow:
Resistor 1 (R₁) = 40 Ω
Resistor 3 (R₃) = 70.8 Ω
Equivalent Resistance of R₁ and R₃ (R₁ₙ₃) =?
Since the two resistors are in parallel connection, their equivalent can be obtained as follow:
R₁ₙ₃ = R₁ × R₃ / R₁ + R₃
R₁ₙ₃ = 40 × 70.8 / 40 + 70.8
R₁ₙ₃ = 2832 / 110.8
R₁ₙ₃ = 25.6 Ω
Finally, we shall determine the equivalent resistance of the group. This can be obtained as follow:
Equivalent Resistance of R₁ and R₃ (R₁ₙ₃) = 25.6 Ω
Resistor 2 (R₂) = 25.4 Ω
Equivalent Resistance (Rₑq) =?
Rₑq = R₁ₙ₃ + R₂ (series connection)
Rₑq = 25.6 + 25.4
Rₑq = 51 Ω
Therefore, the equivalent resistance of the group is 51 Ω.
