Since you already gave us the weight of the 2.5-kg box,
we don't even need to know what the distance is, just
as long as it doesn't change.
Look at the formula for the gravitational force:
F = G m₁ m₂ / R² .
If 'G', 'm₁' (mass of the Earth), and 'R' (distance from the Earth's center)
don't change, then the Force is proportional to m₂ ... mass of the box,
and you can write a simple proportion:
(6.1 N) / (2.5 kg) = (F) / (1 kg)
Cross-multiply: (6.1 N) (1 kg) = (F) (2.5 kg)
Divide each side by (2.5 kg): F = (6.1N) x (1 kg) / (2.5 kg) = 2.44 N .
Answer:B
Explanation:
Magnetic field lines form close loops and never intercept
Please answer this question
Think of the formula force=mass x acceleration. even though they have the same acceleration, a train has more mass. is that helpful?
The change in Potential energy of the cat is 176.4 J.
<h3 /><h3>Potential Energy:</h3>
This is the energy due to the position of a body. The S.I unit is Joules (J)
The formula for change in potential energy.
<h3 /><h3>Formula:</h3>
- ΔP.E = mg(H-h).............. Equation 1
<h3>Where:</h3>
- ΔP.E = Change in potential energy
- m = mass of the cat
- g = acceleration due to gravity
- H = First height
- h = second height.
From the question,
<h3>Given:</h3>
- m = 15 kg
- H = 2.5 m
- h = 1.3 m
- g = 9.8 m/s²
Substitute these values into equation 1
- ΔP.E = 15×9.8(2.5-1.3)
- ΔP.E = 15×9.8×1.2
- ΔP.E = 176.4 J.
Hence, The change in Potential energy of the cat is 176.4 J
