Answer:
0.2 J
Explanation:
The pendulum forms a right triangle, with hypotenuse of 50 cm and base of 30 cm. The height of this triangle can be found with Pythagorean theorem:
c² = a² + b²
(50 cm)² = a² + (30 cm)²
a = 40 cm
The height of the triangle is 40 cm. The height of the pendulum when it is at the bottom is 50 cm. So the end of the pendulum is lifted by 10 cm. Assuming the mass is concentrated at the end of the pendulum, the potential energy is:
PE = mgh
PE = (0.200 kg) (9.8 N/kg) (0.10 m)
PE = 0.196 J
Rounding to one significant figure, the potential energy is 0.2 J.
The wavelength is the spatial period of a periodic wave—the distance over which the wave's shape repeats.
Answer:
A compass works by detecting and responding to the Earth's natural magnetic fields. The Earth has an iron core that is part liquid and part solid crystal, due to gravitational pressure. It is believed that movement in the liquid outer core is what produces the Earth's magnetic field.
Explanation:
They will both hit the ground at the same time due to gravity.
that means they took the same time to travel the distance to the ground
however, the ball traveled farther
speed=distance (or displacement) divided by time
so the greater the distance, the greater the speed
the ball traveled faster in the same time so it traveled faster
answer is ball
As the molecules at the surface of a liquid absorb heat, they begin to move around more quickly. This gives them the energy to break the bonds that connect them to other water molecules. When the molecules are moving fast enough, they are able to "escape." They leave the surface of the liquid as gas molecules.
