The potential energy is most often referred to as the "energy at rest" and is dependent on the elevation of an object. This can be calculated through the equation,
E = mgh
where E is the potential energy, m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height. In this item, we are not given with the mass of the cart so we assume it to be m. The force is therefore,
E = m(9.8 m/s²)(0.5 m) = 4.9m
Hence, the potential energy is equal to 4.9m.
Answer:
B. Decrease the plane’s speed and height
Explanation:
Decrease in speed of plane:
When the speed of the plane is decreased then initial velocity of the package will be lesser. As a result, final velocity will also be lesser because in this case final velocity depends upon the initial velocity.
Decrease in height:
According to law of conservation of energy:
Loss in potential energy = Gain in Kinetic energy
mgh = ½ mV^2
It means with the decrease in height less potential energy will be converted to kinetic energy. As package has constant mass so it will gain less velocity.
Ionic compounds are made up of two charged species, a cation (+) and an anion (–).
The charges must balance out to zero for a stable ionic compound, because ionic bonds are formed between two charged species. They form in ratios according to their charges to balance out.
