Answer:

  B)  100 J

Explanation:

Assuming the distance given is measured along the incline, the vertical change in height is (5 m)(sin 30°) = 2.5 m. Then the change in potential energy is ...

  ∆PE = mg(∆h) = (4 kg)(10 m/s^2)(2.5 m) = 100 J

What is the weight of an object with a mass of 6.0 kg on Earth?
gregori [183]
<h2>since weight is measured in newtons, convert the 6 kg to newtons</h2><h3>the formula to convert is kg x 9.807 = N</h3>
  • 6 x 9.807
  • = 58.842 N

hope that helps :))

A window in a skyscraper has a surface area of 3.50 m^2. Wind rushes by the outside of the window at 17.4 m/s, while inside the
Mariana [72]

The difference in the pressure between the inside and outside will be 369.36 N/m²

<h3>What is pressure?</h3>

The force applied perpendicular to the surface of an item per unit area across which that force is spread is known as pressure.

It is denoted by P. The pressure relative to the ambient pressure is known as gauge pressure.

The given data in the problem is;

dP is the change in the presure=?

Using Bernoulli's Theorem;

\rm  \rho\frac{V^2_{12}}{2} +P_1= \rho \frac{V^2_{22}}{2} +P_2 \\\\\ P_2-P_1=\rho \frac{v_2^2-v_1^2}{2} \\\\  P_2-P_1= 1.21 \times \frac{17.4^2-0}{2} \\\\  \triangle p=369.36 \ N/m^2

Hence, the difference in the pressure between the inside and outside will be 369.36 N/m²

In 2-3 complete sentences, explain why the needle on a compass always points in the direction of magnetic north.
Alex17521 [72]
The needle on a compass always points in the direction of magnetic north because of the magnetic poles of earth. the compass is essentially a magnet itself, so the southern pole of the compass is attracted to the northern pole of earth.
