Change in Energy Quick Check
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

The force of gravity on the object decreases.  (FALSE)

The potential energy of the object decreases.  (TRUE)

The acceleration due to gravity decreases.  (FALSE)

The kinetic energy of the object decrease (FALSE)

Explanation:

<u>FORCE OF GRAVITY:</u>

Force of gravity on the object is the weight of object, which depends upon the mass and value of acceleration due to gravity (W = mg). Since, the value mass is constant on Earth and acceleration due to gravity is also constant on earth.

Therefore, force of gravity remains same on the object. <u>The statement is false.</u>

<u></u>

<u>POTENTIAL ENERGY:</u>

Potential energy of object depends upon the mass, value of acceleration due to gravity, and change in height of object (P.E = mgΔh). Since, the value mass is constant on Earth and acceleration due to gravity increases as the object moves towards the surface of earth. But, the height of object is decreasing.

Therefore, potential energy of object decreases. <u>The statement is true.</u>

<u></u>

<u>ACCELERATION DUE TO GRAVITY:</u>

Acceleration due to gravity depends upon the altitude (gh = g[1 - 2h/Re]). Since, the height of object is decreasing.

Therefore, acceleration due to gravity increases. <u>The statement is false.</u>

But, this change is not significant.

<u>KINETIC ENERGY:</u>

Kinetic Energy of object, which depends upon the mass and velocity of the object (K.E = mv²/2). Since, the value mass is constant on Earth and velocity increases as the object moves towards the surface of earth.

Therefore, kinetic energy of the object also increases. <u>The statement is false.</u>

A 20-kg barrel is rolled up a 20-m ramp to the back of a truck whose floor is 5.0 m above the ground. What work is done in loadi
oee [108]

The angle of inclination is calculated using sin function,

sin θ = 5 m / 20 m = 0.25

θ = 14.4775° 

 

<span>The net force exerted is then calculated:
F net = m g sin θ = 20 * 9.8 * 0.25 </span>

F net = 49N 

<span>Work is product of net force and distance:
W = F net * d = 49 * 20 </span>

<span>Work = 980 J </span>

What is a heterogeneous mixture and what is a homogeneous mixture?
yuradex [85]
A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture that contains two or more distinct substances that you can see. You can see the different part if a heterogeneous mixture. An example of this is a salad. You can see all of the parts. A homogeneous mixture is a mixture that is uniform and you cannot see the different parts. It is still a mixture though. An example of that would be salt water. The water and salt are not chemically combined but you cannot see the salt AND water. It is just one solution.

How much is required to accelerate a 5kg mass at 20 m/s2
zhannawk [14.2K]

use F = ma

F : force m : mass a : acceleration

so

f = 5kg * 20 m/s2 = 100 N

A radio station's channel, such as 100.7 fm or 92.3 fm, is actually its frequency in megahertz (mhz), where 1mhz=106hz. calculat
lakkis [162]
When it comes to wave behavior, there are parameters called wavelength and frequency. These two are related by speed of the radiowave. Radiowaves are electromagnetic waves which travels as fast as light. The wavelength is the distance while frequency is the reciprocal of time. When you multiply them both, you get the electromagnetic wave's speed. The equation is c = wavelength*frequency, where c is the speed of light equal to 3 x 10^8 m/s. 

3 x10^8 m/s = wavelength/104.9 x 10^6 Hz   (Hertz is 1/s)
wavelength = 2.86 meters
