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

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.

Does the rankine degree represent a larger or smaller temperature unit than the kelvin degree
zvonat [6]
The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by the question is the first choice, larger.

Rankine is Fahrenheit + 460 , while Kelvin is Celsius + 273. We all know that Fahrenheit has larger number compared to kelvin , thus rankine is much larger.
Hope my answer would be a great help for you.    If you have more questions feel free to ask here at Brainly.

A student uses 150 N to push a block of wood up a ramp at constant velocity of 2.6m/s. What is his power output?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

P= 390 W

Explanation:

In physics, power is the rate of doing work or of transferring heat, i.e. the amount of energy transferred or converted per unit time.  Work  is a force F applied over a distance x. Matemathicaly it means

P = dW/dt ≈ d(F * x)/dt = xdF/dt + Fdx/dt. If force is constant dF/dt=0 so P=F dx/dt = P*v, where v is velocity, the rate of distance per unit time.

We have force and velocity. Newton is unit of Kg*m/s2, hence

P= 150 kgm/s2 * 2.6 m/s =390 Kgm2/s3 = 390 W, where W is Watts and is an unit of power

On a farm, you are pushing on a stubborn pig with a constant horizontal force with magnitude 30.0 n and direction 37.0° counterc
sashaice [31]

<span>Since the force is applied at an angle from the horizontal, we will use the horizontal component of this force in calculating for the displacements.
From derivation, the Fx is:</span>

Fx = F cos φ

Where:

Fx = is the horizontal component of the force

F = total force

φ = angle in radian = 37 * pi / 180 = 0.645 rad

Calculating: Fx = 30.0 N * cos(0.645)

Fx = 23.97 N = 24 N

Calculating for Work: W = Fx * d

A. W = 24 N * 15 m = 360 N

B. W = 24 N * 16 m = 384 N

C. W = 24 N * 12 m = 288 N

D. W = 24 N * 14 m = 336 N

Some scientists speculate that our universe is not the only universe that exists, but the only one we can gather evidence about.
o-na [289]

This idea is called the multiverse theory

<h3>What is the Multiverse theory?</h3>

According to multiverse hypothesis, our universe, which spans tens of billions of light-years and contains hundreds of billions of galaxies and almost innumerable stars, may not be the only one. Instead, there may be a whole distinct world, far away from ours, and then another, and another. In fact, there may be an infinite number of universes, each with its own set of physical laws, stars and galaxies (if they can exist in those worlds), and perhaps even sentient civilizations.

The idea of the multiverse appears in a few branches of physics (and philosophy), but inflation theory provides the best-known example. According to inflation theory, a hypothetical occurrence took place when our universe was really young—less than a second old. According to NASA, the cosmos had a brief period of fast expansion before "inflating" to become several orders of magnitude larger than it had been.

According to Heling Deng, a cosmologist at Arizona State University and an authority on the multiverse hypothesis, the expansion of our universe is assumed to have stopped some 14 billion years ago. However, Deng noted in an email to Live Science, "inflation does not disappear everywhere at the same time." It's possible that if inflation slows down in one area, it picks up in another.
