Answer:

the energy transferred away from its gravitational potential energy store

Explanation:

Kinetic energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its motion.

Mathematically, kinetic energy is given by the formula;

K.E = \frac{1}{2}MV^{2}

Where, K.E represents kinetic energy measured in Joules.

M represents mass measured in kilograms.

V represents velocity measured in metres per seconds square.

Potential energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position.

Mathematically, potential energy is given by the formula;

P.E = mgh

Where,

P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

When an object falls from a height, the maximum energy transferred to its kinetic energy store is equal to the energy transferred away from its gravitational potential energy store.

This ultimately implies that, while the object was at rest it possessed potential energy, which is then transformed into motion when it starts to fall.

5. Two charged particles are separated by a distance of 12 meters. The Coulomb force between them is 20 N. What will the Coulomb
Leni [432]

Answer:

A) 80 N

Explanation:

The closer the particles get, the stronger the Coulomb force, which elongates choices C and D. The Coulomb force is inversely proportional to the distance squared. If the distance is cut in half, the force is multiplied by the reciprocal of (1/2)^2, which is 4. Multiplying it out, 20 times 4 is 80 N.

Answer these questions please and you will get the brain list
Naddika [18.5K]

I am using the equation F=ma (force equals mass times acceleration) to solve these problems.

1. You are looking for force, and have mass and acceleration. You just plug in the values for mass and acceleration to get the force needed.

F=(15kg)(5m/s^2)

F=75N

2. Again, you are looking for force, and just need to plug in the values for mass and acceleration

F=(3kg)(2.4m/s^2)

F=7.2N

3. In this problem, you have force and mass, but need to find acceleration. To do this, you need to get acceleration alone on one side of the equation - divide each side by m. Your equation will now be F/m=a

a=(5N)/(3.7kg)

a=18.5m/s^2

I did not use significant figures. Let me know if you need to do that and need any help on that. Hope this helps!
