Answer:

Explanation:

The potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula

PE = mgh

where

m is the mass

h is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 10 m/s²

From the question we have

PE = 150 × 10 × 10

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

How is plastic deformation related to high temperature and pressure?

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

Plastic deformation of the cutting edge occurs when the tool material softens at high temperature and begins to flow under the pressure of the cutting forces. ... With cemented carbides, the higher the percentage of the binding phase (usually cobalt), the greater will be the deformation.

Reil [10]

The period of a pendulum is given by $T=2 \pi \sqrt{ \frac{l}{g} }$
since Karachi is near sea level, g is larger than it is on Mt. Everest. That means the pendulum will have a larger period on Mt. Everest than it would in Karachi.

Gwar [14]

Newtons 1st law of motion states that the object will continue to move at its present speed and direction until an outside force acts upon it.

So unless the objects inside the car are restrained, they will continue moving at whatever speed the car is traveling at, even if the car is stopped by a crash.

You have a 100 ohm resistor. How

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

R2 = 300 Ohms

Explanation:

Let the two resistors be R1 and R2 respectively.

RT is the total equivalent resistance.

Given the following data;

R1 = 100 Ohms

RT = 75 Ohms

To find R2;

Mathematically, the total equivalent resistance of resistors connected in parallel is given by the formula;

$RT = \frac {R1*R2}{R1 + R2}$

Substituting into the formula, we have;

$75 = \frac {100*R2}{100 + R2}$

Cross-multiplying, we have;

75 * (100 + R2) = 100R2

7500 + 75R2 = 100R2

7500 = 100R2 - 75R2

7500 = 25R2

R2 = 7500/25

R2 = 300 Ohms
