The potential energy is 4.10 J

Explanation:

The potential energy of a body is given by

U=mgh

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration of gravity

h is the height of the object relative to the ground

For the lemming in this problem we have

m = 0.078 kg is its mass

h = 5.36 m is the height above the ground

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

Solving the equation,

U=(0.078)(9.8)(5.36)=4.10 J

Kim throws a beach ball up in the air. It reaches its maximum height 0.50s later. We can ignore air resistance. What was the bea
notka56 [123]

Answer:

The beach ball's velocity at the moment it was tossed into the air is <u>4.9 m/s.</u>

Explanation:

Given:

Time taken by the ball to reach maximum height is, t=0.50\ s

We know that, velocity of an object at the highest point is always zero. So, final velocity of the ball is, v=0\ m/s

Also, acceleration acting on the ball is always due to gravity. So, acceleration of the ball is, a=g=-9.8\ m/s^2

The negative sign is used as acceleration is a vector and it acts in the downward direction.

Now, we have the equation of motion relating initial velocity, final velocity, acceleration and time given as:

v=u+at

Where, 'u' is the initial velocity.

Plug in the given values and solve for 'u'. This gives,

0=u-9.8(0.5)\\u=9.8\times 0.5\\u=4.9\ m/s

Therefore, the beach ball's velocity at the moment it was tossed into the air is 4.9 m/s

How many neutrons does element X have if its atomic number is 48 and its mass number is 167?
lys-0071 [83]
If its atomic number is 48, then it has 48 protons in the nucleus
of each atom.  Any more mass than that is supplied by the neutrons
that are mixed in there with the protons.

If the mass is 167, and 48 of those are protons, then there are

             (167 - 48)  =  119 neutrons

in each nucleus.
