Find the energy in joules required to lift a 55.0 megagram object a distance of 500cm

Physics

pantera1 [17]4 years ago
5 0

1,000 grams = 1 kilogram
so 55 megagrams = 55,000 kilograms

100 cm = 1 meter
so 500 cm = 5 meters

Acceleration of gravity on Earth = 9.8 m/s²

Weight = (mass) x (gravity)

========================================

Work = increase in potential energy =

               (weight) x (height) =

             (mass) x (gravity) x (height) =

             (55,000 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (5 m) =

                     2,695,000 joules .

(a) A 2.00-µF capacitor is connected to a 18.0-V battery. How much energy is stored in the capacitor?
marshall27 [118]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

1.8 x 10⁻⁵J

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The energy (E) stored in a capacitor of capacitance, C,  when a voltage, V, is supplied is given by;

E = \frac{1}{2} x C x V²              -------------------(i)

Now, from the question;

C = 2.00μF = 2.00 x 10⁻⁶F

V = 18.0V

Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;

E = \frac{1}{2} x 2.00 x 10⁻⁶ x 18.0

E = 1.8 x 10⁻⁵J

Therefore, the quantity of energy stored in the capacitor is 1.8 x 10⁻⁵J

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

a)0.024

b)0.148

Explanation:

Let 's represent the set of deer ticks Carrying Lyme disease with L and the set of deer ticks carrying Human Granulocytic Ehrlichiosis with H

Given:

P(L) = 0.16

P(H) = 0.10

P(L n H) = 0.1 ·P( L u H )

Hence, P( L u H) = 10 ·P( L nH)

(a)

Hence. using the equation. P(L U H) = P(L) + P(H) - P(L n H)

Hence, 10 · P(L n H ) = 0.16 + 0.1 - P(L n H )

Hence, 11 · P(L n H) = 0.16 + 0.1 = 0.26

Hence, P(L n H) = 0.26/11=0.024

(b)

We know that condition probability P(H ║ L) = p(L n H)/P(L)

hence, P(H ║ L) =(0.26/11)/0.16 =0.148

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

See explanations

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric field E=135V/m

Energy stored in 1m³of air=?

The energy stored in an electric field is given as

u = ½ εo E²

Where

U is the energy stored

εo is permissivity and it value is 8.85×10^-12C²/N..m²

And E is the electric field

Then,

U=½×8.85×10^-12×135²

U=8.06×10^-8J/m³

Then, the energy stored in 1m³ of air is 8.06×10^-8 J/m³
