ki77a [65]3 years ago

8 0

Explanation:

P.E=MGH

Where m is mass

Where G is Acceleration Due to Gravity

Where h is Height

So the parameters are M = 20kg

G = 9.8m/s

H = 0.5meters

P.E= 20x9.8x0.5

=98J.

So Ans. is A= 98J

which of the numbers on this figure indicates typical continental conditions (regional metamorphism)?

Tpy6a [65]

The number that indicates typical continental conditions (regional metamorphism) is that showing schist and gneiss rocks.

<h3>What is regional metamorphism?</h3>

Regional metamorphism occurs when rocks undergoes changes as a result of high temperatures and pressure deep within the earth's crust.

Regional metamorphic rocks are usually foliated or squashed in appearance.

Examples of regional metamorphism rocks are schist and gneiss rocks.

Therefore, the figure that indicates typical continental conditions (regional metamorphism) is that showing schist and gneiss rocks.

A proton is released in a uniform electric field, and it experiences an electric force of 2.04×10−14 N toward the south.

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Part A:

$E=127500N/C\\E=1.275*10^{5} N/C$

Part B:

Option B (Towards the South)

Explanation:

Part A:

Magnitude if electric field E:

E=Force/charge

Force=2.04×10−14 N

Charge=1.6×10−19 C

$E=\frac{2.04*10^{-14}}{1.6*10^{-19}} \\E=127500N/C\\E=1.275*10^{5} N/C$

Part B:

Option B (Towards the South)

As electron is experiencing the force towards south,it means the direction of the electric field is towards the south because direction of field lines is from positive to negative, so proton is moving towards south it means negative charge is in south to which proton is attracted. So electric field is towards South.

A 2:2 kg toy train is con ned to roll along a straight, frictionless track parallel to the x-axis. The train starts at the origi

Liula [17]

Answer:

a) 10.51 J

b) 3.48 m/s

Explanation:

Given data :

mass of train ( M ) = 2.2 kg

Given initial velocity ( u ) = 1.6 m/s

<u>a) calculating work done by the force over the journey of the train</u>

F = mx + b ------ ( 1 )

m = slope = ( Δ f / Δ x ) = 2.8 / -7.5 = - 0.373 N/m

x = distance travelled on the x axis by the train = 7.5 m

F = force experienced by the train = 2.8 N

x = 0

∴ b = 2.8

hence equation 1 can be written as

F = ( -0.373) x + 2.8 ----- ( 2 )

hence to determine the work done by the force

W = $\int\limits^7_0 { ( -0.373) x + 2.8 )} \, dx$ Note: the limits are actually 7.5 and 0

∴ W ( work done ) = -10.49 + 21 = 10.51 J

<u>b) calculate the speed of the train at the end of its journey</u>

we will apply the work energy theorem

W = 1/2 m*v^2 - 1/2 m*u^2

∴ V^2 = 2 / M ( W + 1/2 M*u^2 ) ( input values into equation )

V^2 = 12.11

hence V = 3.48 m/s

How much net force is required to accelerate a 2000 kg car at 3.00 m/s^2

andrezito [222]

The net force required to accelerate a car is 6000 N.

Force is defined as the product of the mass and acceleration of the body. Force is used to changing the velocity that is to accelerate an object or a body of a particular mass. The unit of Force is Newton or kg m/s^2.

The formula used to calculate the net force is :

F = ma

where, F = Force

m = mass = 2000 kg

a = acceleration = 3.00 m/s^2

∴ F = 2000*3

F = 6000 N

Thus, to accelerate the car at 3.00 m/s^2 of mass 2000 kg net force required is 6000 N.
