Question:How many joules of gravitational potential energy are stored in an object that has a mass of 8.5 kilograms and is held

2 meters above the surface of earth?
Mathematics
1 answer:
Ivenika [448]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

166.6 joules

Step-by-step explanation:

The formular for potential energy is Mgh

Mass is 8.5 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity (9.8)

height is 2 meters

= 8.5 × 9.8 × 2

= 166.6 joules

Hence the potential energy is 166.6 joules

you are making a picture frame in your shop class. two peices of wood are cut to form complementary angles so they fit fit toget
Andrews [41]

Two angles are complementary when their sum is equal to 90°.

So, ( 2x + 39 ) + ( 7x - 21 ) = 90°

9x + 18° = 90°

x = 8°

Putting value of x in the angles given :

( 2x + 39 )° = 2(8°) + 39° = 55°.

( 7x - 21 )° = 7(8°) - 21° = 35°.

Therefore, the angles are 55° and 35°.

Hence, this is the required solution.

I am not sure how to answer this question and I've been stuck for so long
Salsk061 [2.6K]

The formula you use to find the circumference of a circle is πR² or pi x radius x radius, so since your radius is 14, the answer would be A.

Zarrin [17]

Answer: Maureen's body eliminated the bacteria faster then Ken's as if you multiply 150 times 0.976 you get a number larger then 90 so Ken would have eliminated 150 mg of antibiotics slower then Maureen.

One geometry question <br> Please help me with this!!!!
otez555 [7]

Answer:

∠ XAZ = 50°

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of the circle = 360°

Given arc XYZ = 230°, then

arc XZ = 360° - 230° = 130°

The tangent- tangent angle XAZ is one half the difference of the intercepted arcs, that is

∠ XAZ = \frac{1}{2} (230 - 130)° = 0.5 × 100° = 50°

Eleanor scores 680 on the mathematics part of the SAT. The distribution of SAT math scores in recent years has been Normal with
Katen [24]

Answer:

  1. Elanor's standardized score is  1.19
  2. Gerald's standardized score is 0.72
  3. Elanor has higher score

Step-by-step explanation:

To compare Elanor's and Gerald's math scores, we need to standardize them and calculate their z-scores.

z score can be calculated using the formula

z=\frac{X-M}{s} where

  • X is the student's score
  • M is the mean score of the exam
  • s is the standard deviation of the exam

Elanor's standardized score is:

z(e) = \frac{680-554}{106} ≈ 1.19

Gerald's standardized score is:

z(g)= \frac{27-24.7}{3.2} ≈ 0.72

Since z(e) > z(g), Elanor has higher score
