A mountain climber increases their height from 200 meters to 400 meters. What affect will this have on their potential energy?

Physics

Yanka [14]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

At 400 m the potential energy of the mountain climber doubled the initial value.

Explanation:

Given;

initial height of the mountain climber = 200 m

final height of the mountain climber, = 400 m

The potential energy of the mountain climber is calculated as;

Potential energy, P.E = mgh

At 200 m, P.E₁ = mg x 200 = 200mg

At 400 m, P.E₂ = mg x 400 = 400mg

Then, at 400 m, P.E₂ = 2 x 200mg = 2 x P.E₁

Therefore, at 400 m the potential energy of the mountain climber doubled the initial value.

Enter the expression
vlabodo [156]
I see the word "when..." kind of fading out at the end of the first line.
Whatever comes after it may be important.

If you're just supposed to copy the expression into the box,
then the problem is that you left the 'e' out of it.

I'm guessing that you're supposed to enter whatever the expression becomes
when either  N₀ or  ' t ' has some special value that's in the first line.

Just taking a wild guess here . . . . .

If it's  "Enter the expression ..... , when t=0 ." ,
then the correct answer in the box is     N₀  .

But that's just a wild guess.  As I pointed out, you cut off
the picture in the middle of the word 'when', and I've got
a hunch that there's something important after it.

A mass on a spring vibrates in simple harmonic motion at an amplitude of 8.0 cm. If the mass of the object is 0.20 kg and the sp
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Frequency, f = 3.73Hz

Explanation:

The frequency of a simple harmonic 6is given by:

f = w/2pi

But w= Sqrt( k/m)

Where k is the spring constant

And m is the mass

Given:

Mass=0.20kg

Spring constant, k=130N/m

w= Sqrt(130/0.20)

w= Sqrt(650)

w= 25.50 m

Frequency, f = w/2pi

f = 25.50/(2×3.142)

f = 3.73Hz

The potential difference between the plates of an air-filled parallel-plate capacitor with a plate separation of 4 cm is 51 V. W
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Electric field between plates of a parallel plate capacitor is uniform .

In a uniform electric field , relation between electric field and potential gradient is as follows

electric field = potential gradient               [ E = - dV / dl ]

in the given case ,

dV = 51 V  ,

dl = 4 cm

=  4 x 10⁻² m

E = 51 /  4 x 10⁻²

= 12.75 x 10² V / m

= 1275 V / m
