Answer:

${ \bf{potential \: energy = mass \times gravitation \times height}} \\ 350 = 17 \times 10 \times h \\ 350 = 170h \\ height = 2.06 \: metres$

Acceleration toward the center of a curved path is called

Serggg [28]

Answer:

Centripetal acceleration.

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration is a property of a body moving in a uniform circular path and it is directed radially towards the center of the circle in which body is rotating.

The force which causes this acceleration is centripetal force which is also directed towards the center of the circle and pulls the body towards its center.

It is calculated through following formula

$a=v^2/r$

where v is velocity and r is the radius of the circle.

Potassium ions (K+) move across a 7.0 -mm- thick cell membrane from the inside to the outside. The potential inside the cell is

Reil [10]

Explanation:

Relation between potential energy and charge is as follows.

U = qV

or, $\Delta U = q \times \Delta V$

= $1.6 \times 10^{-19} \times 70 \times 10^{-3}$

= $112 \times 10^{-22}$ J

or, = $1.12 \times 10^{20} J$

Therefore, we can conclude that change in the electrical potential energy $\Delta U$ is $1.12 \times 10^{20} J$ .

Answer:

The average velocity has magnitude = 10 km/h , direction: east

Explanation:

In order to find the average velocity of the car we need to know the final and initial positions, and the time that took to get from one to the other.

Notice that since its movement was 60 km straight east and then from there 40 km straight west, the car is positioned at 20 km to the east of its initial departure point. therefore the vector change in position is a vector 20 km in magnitude, and direction towards the east.

Since it took the car a total of 1.33 hours plus 0.67 hours to reach its final position, the total time elapsed is: 1.33 + 0.67 hours = 2 hours.

Then,the velocity vector has magnitude; 20 km / 2 hours = 10 km/hour

As we mentioned above. the direction of the velocity vector is east.
