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.

Two pebbles, Pebble A and Pebble B, are thrown horizontally with the same force. Pebble A's mass is 3 times the
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Pebble A has 1/3 the acceleration as pebble B.

Explanation:

F = m×a

mass of a = 3 × mass of b (m_a = 3 × m_b)

Same starting force, F

m_a = mass of a

m_b = mass of b

a_a = acceleration of a

a_b = acceleration of b

F = m_a × a_a = m_b × a_b

3 × m_b × a_a = m_b × a_b

3 × a_a = a_b

OR

a_a = a_b / 3

Key difference of the celsius scale and kevin scale
mixer [17]

Their 'degrees' are the same size.  The difference between the Celsius
and Kelvin scales is their zero-point.  Zero Kelvin is the absolute zero of
nature and Physics.  Zero Celsius is the melting/freezing point of water,
273.15 higher than absolute zero.

A bullet with a mass 2.25g is fired up into the air with a velocity of 187.5 m/s. What is the maximum height of the bullet
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

1793.7m

Explanation:

From the principle of conservation of energy; the kinetic energy substended by the object equals the potential energy sustain by the object when it gets to its maximum position.

Now the kinetic energy; is

K.E = 1/2 × m × v2

Where m is mass

v is velocity

Hence.

K.E = 1/2 × 2.25 × (187.5)^2

Now this should be same with the potential energy which is given as;

P.E = m× g× h

Where m is mass of object

g is acceleration of free fall due to gravity = 9.8m/S2

h is maximum height substain by the object.

Hence P.E = 2.25 × 9.8 × h

From the foregoing analysis of energy conversation it implies;

1/2 × 2.25 × (187.5)^2 =2.25 × 9.8 × h

=> 1/2 × (187.5)^2 = 9.8 × h

=>1/2 × (187.5)^2 / 9.8 = h

=> 1793.69m = h

h= 1793.69m

h =1793.7m to 1 decimal place
