Is energy matter? Is gravity matter? Why or why not

Alja [10]

No, because the energy is the capacity for performing work. Gravity is the force that draws everything to the earth's center.

One gram of Uranium averages release 1.01 KJ (10^7) of energy. How much mass could be converted to energy to release this much e

frutty [35]

Answer:

The amount of mass that needs to be converted to release that amount of energy is $1.122 X 10^{-7} kg$

Explanation:

From Albert Einstein's Energy equation, we can understand that mass can get converted to energy, using the formula

$E= \Delta mc^{2}$

where $\Delta m$ = change in mass

c = speed of light = $3 \times 10 ^{8}m/s$

Making m the subject of the formula, we can find the change in mass to be

$\Delta m = \frac{E}{c^{2}}= \frac{1.01 \times 10^{3} \times 10^{7}}{(3 \times 10^{8})^{2}}= 1.122 \times 10 ^{-7}kg$

There fore, the amount of mass that needs to be converted to release that amount of energy is 1.122 X 10 ^-7 kg

A motor uses motion in a magnetic field to produce an electric current. true or false

irinina [24]

Well, that's a nice, concise description, but it applies to a
generator, not a motor. A motor does exactly the opposite.
It uses an electric current to produce motion in a magnetic field.

Sadly, the statement is false.

Given that a pipe having a diameter of 1.5 feet and a height of 10 feet, what is the psi at 5 feet ?

grin007 [14]

Answer:

The pressure is 2.167 psi.

Explanation:

Given that,

Diameter = 1.5 feet

Height = 10 feet

We need to calculate the psi at 5 feet

Using formula of pressure at a depth in a fluid

Suppose the fluid is water.

Then, the pressure is

$P=\rho g h$

Where, P = pressure

$\rho$ = density

h = height

Put the value into the formula

$P=1000\times9.8\times1.524$

$P=14935.2\ N/m^2$

Pressure in psi is

$P=2.166167621\ psi$

$P=2.167\ psi$

Hence, The pressure is 2.167 psi.
