We know, Potential Energy = m * g * h
Here, mass & gravity would be same, but their height will change so it will be:
ΔU = U₂ - U₁
ΔU = mgh₂ - mgh₁
ΔU = mg (h₂ - h₁)
Hope this helps!
If something is traveling at 20 m/s constant speed AND its direction isn't changing, then its velocity is constant. Another way to say that is: Its acceleration is zero. Zero acceleration means zero NET force acting on the object, or a group of BALANCED forces acting on it, also called EQUILIBRIUM. The required answer is: YES.
If a real projectile is launched, the force of gravity acts on it vertically downward. There's no upward force acting on it to balance gravity. Therefore, the forces on the projectile are NOT balanced, there IS a net vertical force on it, and it's NOT in equilibrium. Too bad.
Explanation:
The kinetic energy is said to be possessed due to the motion of the object. An object at rest will have zero kinetic energy and if it is in motion it will have some kinetic energy. The mathematical expression for kinetic energy is given by :
...........(1)
Where
m is the mass of the object
v is the velocity of object
It is clear form expression (1) that the kinetic energy of the object is directly proportional to the mass and velocity of an object.
So, the hypothesis for the mass and kinetic energy can be written as " when the mass of the object increases, its kinetic energy also increases because there exists a direct relationship between the mass and the kinetic energy of the object".
Answer:
Explanation:
net force on the skier = mg sin 39 - μ mg cos39
mg ( sin39 - μ cos39 )
= 73 x 9.8 ( .629 - .116)
= 367 N
impulse = net force x time = change in momentum .
= 367 x 5 = 1835 kg m /s
velocity of the skier after 5 s = 1835 / 73
= 25.13 m /s
b )
net force becomes zero
mg ( sin39 - μ cos39 ) = 0
μ = tan39
= .81
c )
net force becomes zero , so he will continue to go ahead with constant speed of 25.13 m /s
so he will have speed of 25.13 m /s after 5 s .
