Answer:

Explanation:

Gravitational Energy is the energy of position or place. A rock resting at the top of a hill contains gravitational Potential energy. Hydropower, such as water in a reservoir behind a dam, is an example of gravitational potential energy.

A car is driving at 50 kilometers per hour. how far, in meters, does it travel in 2 seconds?

AveGali [126]

Sure, Just change the 2 sec. into hrs. Since 1 hour = 3600 sec. then you can divide 2/3600 = 1/1800 hrs. Distance in kilometers = (Speed in km/hr * time in hrs) = 50*(1/1800)*1000 in meters = 27.77 meters

A force of 10 N acts on an object with a mass of 10 kg. What is its acceleration? A. 1 m/s2 B. 10 m/s2 C. 2 m/s2 D. 5 m/s2

Akimi4 [234]

The acceleration exerted by the object of mass 10 kg is $\mathbf{1} m / \boldsymbol{s}^{2}$

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

According to Newton’s second law of motion, any external force acting on a body will be directly proportional to the mass of the body as well as acceleration exerted by the body. So, the net external force acting on any object will be equal to the product of mass of the object with acceleration exerted by the object. Thus,

$Force = Mass \times Acceleration$

So,

$Acceleration=\frac{\text {Force}}{\text {Mass}}$

As the force acting on the object is stated as 10 N and the mass of the object is given as 10 kg, then the acceleration will be

$Acceleration =\frac{10 \mathrm{N}}{10 \mathrm{kg}}=1 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$

So, the acceleration exerted by the object of mass 10 kg is $\mathbf{1} m / \boldsymbol{s}^{2}$

A car slows down from speed of 72

Nastasia [14]

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity = 72km/hr

Final velocity = 0km/hr

Time taken = 25s

Unknown:

Acceleration = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, convert km/hr to m/s;

1000m = 1km

3600s = 1hr

72km/hr;

1km/hr = 0.278m/s

72km/hr = 0.278 x 72 = 20.02m/s

Acceleration is the change in velocity divided by the time taken;

Acceleration = $\frac{final velocity - initial velocity }{time}$

Acceleration = $\frac{0 - 20.02}{25}$ = -0.8m/s

The car is actually decelerating at a rate of 0.8m/s

Explain, using the kinetic theory of matter, why liquids and solids are more denser than gases

AlekseyPX

Solid and liquids are much more denser than gas because their molecules are close to each other and with that the molecules of them can't move that freely unlike the gas molecules. Also, because of being near to each other the molecules of solid and liquids became heavy making them dense.
