Answer:

P = 5880 J

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the block, m = 30 kg

The block is sitting at a height of 20 m.

The block will have gravitational potential energy. The formula for gravitational potential energy is given by :

$P=mgh\\\\=30\times 9.8\times 20\\\\=5880\ J$

So, the required potential energy is equal to 5880 J.

Two rockets are flying in the same direction and are side by side at the instant their retrorockets fire. Rocket A has an initia

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

-22.2 m/s²

Explanation:

The equation for position x for a constant acceleration a, time t and initial velocity v₀, initial position x₀:

(1) $x=\frac{1}{2}at^2+v_0t+x_0$

For rocket A the initial and final position: x = x₀= 0. Using these values in equation 1 gives:

(2) $0=\frac{1}{2}at^2+v_0t$

Solving for time t:

$-\frac{1}{2}at^2=v_0t$

(3) $t=-\frac{2v_0}{a}$

The times for both rockets must be equal, since they start and end at the same location. Using equation 3 for rocket A and B gives:

(4) $\frac{v_{0A}}{a_A}=\frac{v_{0B}}{a_B}$

Solving equation 4 for acceleration of rocket B:

(5) $a_B=a_A\frac{v_{0B}}{v_{0A}}$

What is BEST to say about a runner who is running at a constant velocity? A. Their acceleration is positive. B. Their accelerati

Leto [7]

<span>The question is asking us what is BEST to say about a runner who is running at a constant velocity? A constant velocity (=speed) means that they are not getting faster or slower - they are running exactly as fast all the time. This meanst that their speed does not change, so their change of speed is equal to 0. A change of speed is called acceleration so their C. Their acceleration is zero. - C is the correct answer. </span>

A small sphere has a harge of 9uC and other small sphere has a charge of 4uC.

Helga [31]

Answer:

Electrical force, F = 90 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Charge on sphere 1, $q_1=9\ \mu C=9\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Charge on sphere 2, $q_1=4\ \mu C=4\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Distance between two spheres, d = 6 cm = 0.06 m

Let F is the electrical force between them. It is given by the formula of electric force which is directly proportional to the product of charges and inversely proportional to the square of distance between them such that,

$F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{d^2}$

$F=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{9\times 10^{-6}\times 4\times 10^{-6}}{(0.06)^2}$

F = 90 N

So, the electrical force between them is 90 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

A 150kg person stands on a compression spring with spring constant 10000n/m and nominal length of 0.50.what is the total length

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

<em>The total length of the spring would be 0.65 m</em>

Explanation:

The Concept

Hooke's law evaluates the increment of spring in relation to the force acting on the body. Hooke's law states that for a spring undergoing deformation, the force applied is directly proportional to the deformation experienced by the spring. Hooke's law is represented thus;

F = k x ..................1

where F is the force applied to the spring

k is the spring constant

x is the spring stretch or extension

Step by Step Calculations

We have to obtain x before adding it to the nominal length, We make x the subject formula in equation 1;

x = F/k

but F = m x g

so, x = (m x g)/k

given that, the mass of the person m =150 kg

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/ $s^{2}$

k is the spring constant = 10000 N/m

then x = (9.81 m/ $s^{2}$ x 150 kg)/10000 N/m

x = 0.14715 m

the extension experienced by the spring after the compression is 0.14715 m

The total length of the spring would be;

L = 0.14715 m + 0.5 m = 0.64715

L ≈ 0.65 m

Therefore the total length of the spring would be 0.65 m
