1.) How much potential energy does an object with a mass of 3 kg have on top of a stand 12 meters

Physics
1 answer:
Elena-2011 [213]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

<h2>352.8 Joules</h2>

Explanation:

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

PE = 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

PE = 3 × 9.8 × 12

We have the final answer as

<h3>352.8 J</h3>

Hope this helps you

A boy reaches out of a window and tosses a ball straight up with a speed of 10 m/s. The ball is 20 m above the ground as he rele
kirill115 [55]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of the ball, v = 10 m/s

Initial position of ball above ground, h = 20 m

(a) Let H is the maximum height reached by the ball. It can be calculated using the conservation of energy as :

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh'            

h'=\dfrac{v^2}{2g}

h'=\dfrac{(10)^2}{2\times 9.8}

h' = 5.1 m

The maximum height above ground,

H = 5.1 + 20

H = 25.1 meters

So, the maximum height reached by the ball is 25.1 meters.

(b) The ball's speed as it passes the window on its way down is same as the initial speed i.e. 10 m/s.

Hence, this is the required solution.

a child is stationary on a swing. The child is given a push by a parent and the child starts swinging
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

you havent given the full question

but im guessing momentum

momentum is the quantity of motion of a moving body, measured as a product of its mass and velocity or the impetus gained by a moving object.

Explanation:

as the child is pushed, it gathers momentum as its weight allows it be pushed forward, and the velocity is the speed driven by the amount of force the parent pushes on the child whilst they are swinging. The momentum is the result of this action

the equation that links these factors together are

p = mv

p = momentum

m = mass

v = velocity

hope i got it right ._.

A lad, waiting for his friend walks in the sidewalk, in front of her house, from the front door, first, he moves towards the Pos
Andreas93 [3]

His total displacement from his original position is -1 m

We know that total displacement of an object from a position x to a position x', d = final position - initial position.

d = x' - x

If we assume the lad's initial position in front of her house is x = 0 m. The lad then moves towards the positive x-axis, 5 m. He then ends up at x' = 5 m. He then finally goes back 6 m.

Since displacement = final position - initial position, and his displacement is d' = -6 m (since he moves in the negative x - direction or moves back) from his initial position of x' = 5 m.

His final position, x" after moving back 6 m is gotten from

x" - x' = -6 m

x" = -6 + x'

x" = -6 + 5

x" = -1 m

Thus, his total displacement from his original position is

d = final position - initial position

d = x" - x

d = -1 m - 0 m

d = -1 m

So, his total displacement from his original position is -1 m

A gas is compressed at a constant pressure of 0.800 atm from 12.00 L to 3.00 L. In the process, 390 J of energy leaves the gas b
Andru [333]

Answer:

a)W= - 720 J

b)ΔU= 330 J

Explanation:

Given that

P = 0.8 atm

We know that 1 atm = 100 KPa

P = 80 KPa

V₁ = 12 L = 0.012 m³       ( 1000 L = 1 m³)

V₂ = 3 L = 0.003 m³

Q= - 390 J ( heat is leaving from the system )

We know that work done by gas given as

W = P (V₂ -V₁ )

W= 80 x ( 0.003 - 0.012 ) KJ

W= - 0.72 KJ

W= - 720 J    ( Negative sign indicates work done on the gas)

From first law of thermodynamics

Q = W + ΔU

ΔU=Change in the internal energy

Now by putting the values

- 390 = - 720 + ΔU

ΔU= 720 - 390  J

ΔU= 330 J

Argue as to why drivint on icy or snowy roads can be dangerous
Vika [28.1K]
Icy/Snowy roads have less friction than normal roads. This means that the wheels are less likely to stay positioned because of traction, and you will spin out of control
