Well, it depends. Your latitude on Earth--that is, how close you are to the equator--and the time of year make a difference. I'll explain why. Your motion is made up of four pieces: the rotation of the Earth on its axis, the motion of the Earth around the Sun, the Sun's orbit about the center of the galaxy, and the motion of the whole galaxy.
Answer:
29223.6J
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of Piano = 852kg
Height of lifting = 3.5m
Unknown:
Gravitational potential energy = ?
Solution:
The gravitational potential energy of a body can be expressed as the energy due to the position of a body;
G.P.E = mgh
m is the mass
g is the acceleration due to gravity
h is the height
Now insert the given parameters and solve;
G.P.E = 852 x 9.8 x 3.5 = 29223.6J
Should be D bcs i took this same exact test yesterday
The energy in wind CAME from radiant energy originally, but it isn't
radiant energy any more. It's the energy in the mass of moving air,
and that's KINETIC energy.
You could move the turbine blades with stones or pingpong balls,
push the blades with your hands, or shoot water at them from a hose.
In any case, you'd have moving mass with kinetic energy transfer that
energy to the turbine. A moving mass of air does the same thing.
