Gravitational potential energy can be described as m*g*h (mass times gravity times height).

Originally,
15kg * 9.8m/s^2 *0.3 m = 44.1 kg*m^2/s^2 = 44.1 Joules.

After it is moved to a 1m shelf:
15kg * 9.8m/s * 1 = 147 kg*m^2/s^2= 147 Joules.

To find how much energy was added, we subtract final energy from initial energy:

147 J - 44.1 J = 102.9 Joules.

When a cube is inscribed in a sphere of radius r, the length Lof a side of the cube is . If a positive point charge Qis placed a
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

  Ф_cube /Ф_sphere = 3 /π

Explanation:

The electrical flow is

      Ф = E A

where E is the electric field and A is the surface area

Let's shut down the electric field with Gauss's law

       Фi = ∫ E .dA = q_{int} / ε₀

the Gaussian surface is a sphere so its area is

        A = 4 π r²

the charge inside is

        q_{int} = Q

we substitute

       E 4π r² = Q /ε₀

       E = 1 / 4πε₀   Q / r²

To calculate the flow on the two surfaces

* Sphere

       Ф = E A

        Ф = 1 / 4πε₀  Q / r² (4π r²)

        Ф_sphere = Q /ε₀

* Cube

Let's find the side value of the cube inscribed inside the sphere.

In this case the radius of the sphere is half the diagonal of the cube

          r = d / 2

We look for the diagonal with the Pythagorean theorem

         d² = L² + L² = 2 L²

         d = √2 L

         

we substitute

          r = √2 / 2 L

          r = L / √2

          L = √2  r

now we can calculate the area of ​​the cube that has 6 faces

          A = 6 L²

          A = 6 (√2  r)²

          A = 12 r²

the flow is

          Ф = E A

          Ф = 1 / 4πε₀  Q/r²  (12r²)

          Ф_cubo = 3 /πε₀  Q

the relationship of these two flows is

         Ф_cube /Ф_sphere = 3 /π

Four springs with the following spring constants, 113.0 N/m, 65.0 N/m, 102.0 N/m, and 101.0 N/m are connected in series. What is
Llana [10]

Answer:

K_e_q=22.75878093\frac{N}{m}

f=1.363684118Hz

Explanation:

In order to calculate the equivalent spring constant we need to use the next formula:

\frac{1}{K_e_q} =\frac{1}{K_1} +\frac{1}{K_2} +\frac{1}{K_3} +\frac{1}{K_4}

Replacing the data provided:

\frac{1}{K_e_q} =\frac{1}{113} +\frac{1}{65} +\frac{1}{102} +\frac{1}{101}

K_e_q=22.75878093\frac{N}{m}

Finally, to calculate the frequency of oscillation we use this:

f=\frac{1}{2(pi)} \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }

Replacing m and k:

f=\frac{1}{2(pi)} \sqrt{\frac{22.75878093}{0.31} } =1.363684118Hz

You are pushing a wooden crate across the floor at constant speed. You decide to turn the crate on end, reducing by half the sur
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

D. Half as great

Explanation:

Since we know that the friction force between the surface of crate and ground is given as

F_f = \mu F_n

so here we know that

\mu = friction coefficient between two surfaces which depends on the effective contact area between two surfaces

F_n = normal force due to the object

So when we turn the object on another side such that the surface area is half then the friction coefficient will become also half

So here the friction force will also reduce to half

so correct answer will be

D. Half as great

In a scale model of the Solar System, if the Sun is represented by a ball with a diameter of about 8 inches, about how large wou
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

size of popcorn seed may meet the scaled earth size of x = 0.07312 in.  

Explanation:

Given:-

- The diameter of actual sun, Ds = 1.3927 * 10^6 km

- The diameter of model sun ball, ds = 8 in

- The diameter of the actual earth, De = 12,742 km

Find:-

How large would be the earth model

Solution:-

- We can use the actual diameters of the earth and sun to develop the ratio of earth diameter to that of sun. The direct ratio can be used to model the diameter of earth for the scale model

                                          Sun                   Earth

                     Actual :     1392700 km     12,742 km

                      Scale :           8 in                    x

- Use direct relations and solve for x:

                               x = (8 in)*(12,742 km ) / ( 1392700 km )

                              x = 0.07312 in.

- From the given options apple, grapefruit and marble diameters are larger than 1 inch. So only the size of popcorn seed may meet the scaled earth size of x = 0.07312 in.
