Answer:

<h2>117.6 J</h2>

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula

GPE = mgh

where

m is the mass

h is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 9.8 m/s²

From the question we have

GPE = 6 × 9.8 × 2

We have the final answer as

<h3>117.6 J</h3>

Hope this helps you

E the temperature of a substance. Water has a very high specific heat. That means it needs to absorb a lot of energy before its temperature changes. Sand , on the other hand, have lower specific heats. This means that their temperatures change more quickly. When the summer sun shines down on them, they quickly become hot.

Use the circuit diagram to decide if the lightbulb will light. Justify your answer.
podryga [215]

Answer:

The lightbulb will NOT light.

Explanation:

You put me in a difficult position.  I can't help it, but the "sample answer" is by far the best way to explain this, briefly and correctly.  There's no other choice but to copy it.

This is a short circuit. The branch without the bulb has almost no resistance, so all the current will flow through that branch instead of flowing through the bulb.

<em>If</em> the lower switch were <u>opened</u>, THEN we would have a series circuit.  Current would no longer have any other choice but to flow through the bulb, and the bulb would light.

A 5 kg ball moving to the right at a speed of 6 m/s strikes another 4 kg
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

The 5 kg ball moves 3.78 m/s to the left, and the 4 kg ball moves 7.22 m/s to the right.

Explanation:

Momentum before = momentum after

m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂

(5 kg) (6 m/s) + (4 kg) (-5 m/s) = (5 kg) v₁ + (4 kg) v₂

10 m/s = 5 v₁ + 4 v₂

Assuming an elastic collision, kinetic energy is conserved.

½ m₁ u₁² + ½ m₂ u₂² = ½ m₁ v₁² + ½ m₂ v₂²

m₁ u₁² + m₂ u₂² = m₁ v₁² + m₂ v₂²

(5 kg) (6 m/s)² + (4 kg) (-5 m/s)² = (5 kg) v₁² + (4 kg) v₂²

280 m²/s² = 5 v₁² + 4 v₂²

Substituting:

v₂ = (10 − 5 v₁) / 4

280 = 5 v₁² + 4 [(10 − 5 v₁) / 4]²

280 = 5 v₁² + (10 − 5 v₁)² / 4

1120 = 20 v₁² + (10 − 5 v₁)²

1120 = 20 v₁² + 100 − 100 v₁ + 25 v₁²

0 = 45 v₁² − 100 v₁ − 1020

0 = 9 v₁² − 20 v₁ − 204

0 = (9 v₁ + 34) (v₁ − 6)

v₁ = -3.78 m/s or 6 m/s

u₁ = 6 m/s, so v₁ = -3.78 m/s.  Solving for v₂:

v₂ = (10 − 5 v₁) / 4

v₂ = 7.22 m/s

The 5 kg ball moves 3.78 m/s to the left, and the 4 kg ball moves 7.22 m/s to the right.
