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

ozzi

Answer:

e. 400 Hz

Explanation:

In closed organ pipe,  only odd harmonics of fundamental note is possible .

The fundamental frequency is 200 Hz . Then other overtones will be having following frequencies .

200 x 3 , 200 x 5 , 200 x 7 , 200 x 9 etc

600 Hz , 1000 Hz , 1400 Hz  , 1800 Hz .

Frequency not possible is 400 Hz .

Which of the following statements explains why a race car going around a curve is accelerating, even if the speed is constant? A
Tom [10]

OPTION C The car is accelerating because the direction of velocity is changing explains why a race car going around a curve is accelerating, even if the speed is constant

  • When a body is in uniform circular motion ( constant speed ), it will continuously cheanges its direction and so the body is accelerating
  • The rate at which an item changes its velocity is known as acceleration, a vector variable. If an object's velocity is changing, it is accelerating.
  • As a vector quantity, acceleration has a direction attached to it. The acceleration vector's direction is determined by two factors: if the thing is slowing down or speeding up the direction the thing is travelling in (+ or -)

  • The following general rule is used to calculate acceleration:

An object's acceleration will be in the opposite direction of its velocity if it is slowing down.

You may use this basic concept to determine if an object's acceleration is positive or negative, to the right or left, up or down, etc.

Accelerating car is a _______
Pavel [41]

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity as a function of time. For example a car traveling at 50 km/hr starts to accelerate, 10 seconds after, its speed changes to 100 km/hr then the acceleration of the car during the time can be calculated as below: initial speed = 50 km/hr.

Which of the following statements concerning the nuclear force is false? O The nuclear force is attractive and not repulsive. O
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

  • The nuclear force is attractive and not repulsive.
  • The nuclear force is very weak and much smaller in relative magnitude than the electrostatic and gravitational forces.

Explanation:

  • Nuclear force is the strongest existing force in the nature.
  • It has the shortest range.
  • Its main function is to hold the subatomic particles together in nature.
  • The nuclear force is created  by the exchange of pi mesons between the nucleons of an atom, but for this exchange to happen the particles must be close to one another of the order of few femtometer.
  • At about 1 femtometer the nuclear force is very strongly attractive in nature but at distance greater than 2.5 femtometer it fades away.
  • The force becomes repulsive in nature at distance less than 0.7 femtometer.
  • This force holds the likely charged protons together in the nucleus.

Wavelengths of incoming solar radiation are __________________ the wavelengths of reradiated heat. question 2 options: faster th
MArishka [77]
I think that the wavelengths of an incoming solar radiation are shorter than the wavelengths of reradiated heat. This is because the incoming solar radiation to the surface of the earth is in the utraviolet (short) to near infrared (long) wavelength bands. After absorption has taken place, surfaces reradiate heat energy back to the atmosphere at long wavelength infrared.
