How high must you lift a 25 Newton book for it to have the same increase in potential energy as a 20 Newton book that was lifted

to 0.5 meters?
Physics

Annette [7]3 years ago

Given :

An object with weight 20 N was lifted to 0.5 meters.

To Find :

How high must you lift a 25 Newton book for it to have the same increase in potential energy as the given book.

Solution :

Since both have same potential energy :

P.E_2 = P.E_1\\\\W_2h_2 = W_1h_1

Putting all given values in above equation :

25h_2 = 20\times 0.5\\\\h_2 = \dfrac{20\times 0.5}{25}\\\\h_2 = 0.4\ m

Therefore, book with same potential energy is at a height of 0.4 m.

How do you know if a reaction is endothermic?
viva [34]
Endothermic is when heat is absorbed, so like when ice turns into water, it absorbed heat and energy from the air because now the molecules in the ice started moving faster and more freely to become a liquid state.

A missile is moving 1810 m/s at a 20.0 degree angle. It needs to hit a target 19,500 m away in a 32 degree direction in 9.20 sec
NemiM [27]

Answer:

79.1°

Explanation:

Given:

x₀ = 0 m

y₀ = 0 m

x = 19500 cos 32°

y = 19500 sin 32°

v₀x = 1810 cos 20°

v₀y = 1810 sin 20°

t = 9.20

Find:

ax, ay, θ

First, in the x direction:

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

19500 cos 32° = 0 + (1810 cos 20°) (9.20) + ½ ax (9.20)²

16537 = 15648 + 42.32 ax

ax ≈ 21.01

And in the y direction:

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

19500 sin 32° = 0 + (1810 sin 20°) (9.20) + ½ ay (9.20)²

10333 = 5695 + 42.32 ay

ay ≈ 109.6

The direction of the acceleration is therefore:

θ = atan(ay / ax)

θ = atan(109.6 / 21.01)

θ ≈ 79.1°
