Answer:

15009

Explanation:

PE = mgh

PE = 61.2(9.81)(10 * 2.50)

PE = 15009.3

How could you tell whether or not you are in a magnetic feild
Aleks04 [339]
Magnetic fields are areas where an object exhibits a magnetic influence. The fields affect neighboring objects along things called magnetic field lines. A magnetic object can attract or push away another magnetic object. You also need to remember that magnetic forces are NOT related to gravity. The amount of gravity is based on an object's mass, while magnetic strength is based on the material that the object is made of.

A wave passes along the surface of the water in a ripple tank. Describe the motion of a molecule on the surface as the water pas
laila [671]

Answer:

Explanation:

Water waves are generally a transverse wave which do not cause permanent displacement of molecules of the medium. Transverse waves are waves in which the direction of propagation of the wave is perpendicular to the direction of vibration of the particles of the medium.

As the wave propagates from one point to another on the surface of water transferring energy, a molecule of water on its surface vibrates upwards and downwards. Its motion is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave. After the vibration, it comes back to its initial position.

An electron with a speed of 1.7 × 107 m/s moves horizontally into a region where a constant vertical force of 4.9 × 10-16 N acts
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

 y = 77.74 10⁻⁵ m

Explanation:

For this exercise we can use Newton's second law

        F = m a

        a = F / m

        a = 4.9 10⁻¹⁶ / 9.1 10⁻³¹

        a = 0.538 10¹⁵ m / s

This is the vertical acceleration of the electron.

Now let's use kinematics to find the time it takes to move the

         x= 29 mm = 29 10⁻³ m

On the x axis

            v = x / t

            t = x / v

            t = 29 10⁻³ / 1.7 10⁷

            t = 17 10⁻¹⁰ s

Now we can look for vertical distance at this time.

            y = v_{oy} t + ½ a t²

            y = 0 + ½ 0.538 10¹⁵ (17 10⁻¹⁰)²

            y = 77.74 10⁻⁵ m

omeli [17]

Answer:

The mechanical energy is converted to potential energy while the kinetic energy is zero

Explanation:

mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy. It is the energy associated with the motion and position of an object. The total mechanical energy is the sum of these two forms of energy.

The Law of Conservation of Energy: Energy cannot be created or destroyed, but is merely changed from one form into another. This means that potential energy can become kinetic energy, or vice versa, but energy cannot “disappear”.

The mechanical energy is converted to potential energy while the kinetic energy is zero
