Answer:
option d and b..............
The potential energy of any object depends on its mass as well as its height off the ground.
Potential energy = mass x gravity x height.
We don't have enough information to compare the potential energies of these two objects because we don't know their masses.
Answer:
(C) 40m/s
Explanation:
Given;
spring constant of the catapult, k = 10,000 N/m
compression of the spring, x = 0.5 m
mass of the launched object, m = 1.56 kg
Apply the principle of conservation of energy;
Elastic potential energy of the catapult = kinetic energy of the target launched.
¹/₂kx² = ¹/₂mv²
where;
v is the target's velocity as it leaves the catapult
kx² = mv²
v² = kx² / m
v² = (10000 x 0.5²) / (1.56)
v² = 1602.56
v = √1602.56
v = 40.03 m/s
v ≅ 40 m/s
Therefore, the target's velocity as it leaves the spring is 40 m/s
I think it is the core and outer core.
hope this helped.
