Physics

I am only a HS Freshman so I might be wrong

Answer:

3. Its potential energy and the formula for PE = mgh so you would use the weight given (Weight = mg) and mg is in the (Potential Energy) forumula so we multiply 3 by 30 and get 90 Joules

4. We would do the same thing with this: PE = mgh; PE = 10*3 = 30 Joules

Once again I am only a Freshman and I have taken Private AP Physics classes so just maybe wait for someone who is more confident.

This is just what I would answer

btw, for problem 5, the fromula for kinetic energy is 1/2*m*v^2

A 4 kg bowling ball rolls at a speed of 5 m/s on the roof of a building that is 30 meters tall. What is its kinetic energy?
klasskru [66]

ans: B

Kinetic energy = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}

= \frac{1}{2} (4)(5^{2} )

= 50J

ps. the height will only affect its potential energy, not kinetic.

In comparing sunspots to other areas of the sun's surface one can say that sunspots are...?
taurus [48]

Answer:

D. Cooler

Explanation:

The Sun's surface has a temperature ranging from 6 000 Kelvin, thus it is very hot. The radioactive reaction in the core of the Sun is a nuclear fusion reaction. This reaction ensures continuous release of high energy from the surface of the Sun.

But during the reaction, some parts becomes cooler than other parts on its surface. Which is due to the release of high amount of energy into space. The Sun's spot can be found in the cooler part of the Sun.

You have two points in a soil. Point A is at 75 cm; point B is at 25 cm above the reference. The capillary potential energy at p
user100 [1]

Answer:

The potential energy at point A is 17.1675 J

Explanation:

The capillary potential is the work expended to bring up a unit mass of liquid to a point in a capillary region from a level liquid surface. It is the capillary potential that facilitates the movement of moisture within soil capillaries

In meteorology it is used to describe the level of saturated soil above the water table

Potential energy is the energy inherent in a body by virtue of its position, therefore the potentials of both point A and B are

Point A, elevation = 75 cm capillary potential = -100 cm

Point B, elevation = 25 cm capillary potential = -200 cm

The total potential energy at point A is

Elevation above reference - capillary potential =75-(-100) = 175 cm

which gives per unit mass

PE = m × g × h = 1 kg × 9.81 m/s ² × 1.75 m = 17.1675 kg·m²/s² = 17.1675 J
