Answer:

2000 Joules

Explanation:

The formula for potential energy is <u><em>P.E.=mgh</em></u><em> </em>(where M is Mass, G is acceleration due to Gravity, and H is Height)

Plug the numbers in to get <em>P.E.=(10kg)(10m/s^2)(20m)</em>

<em />

Multiply together to get 2000 joules

If the solar system shrank so that the sun were located just one centimeter from Earth, about how far away could you find the ne
DedPeter [7]
E                  S                                                               *

The "E" represents Earth, "S" represent Sun, and the "*" represents the nearest star(which is Proxima Centauri).

The main thing to worry about here is units, so ill label everything out.
D'e,s'(Distance between earth and sun) = .<span>00001581 light years
D'e,*'(Distance between earth and Proxima) = </span><span>4.243 light years

Now this is where it gets fun, we need to put all the light years into centimeters.(theres alot)
In one light year, there are </span>9.461 * 10^17 centimeters.(the * in this case means multiplication) or 946,100,000,000,000,000 centimeters.

To convert we multiply the light years we found by the big number.
D'e,s'(Distance between earth and sun) = 1.496 * 10^13 centimeters<span>
D'e,*'(Distance between earth and Proxima) = </span><span>4.014 * 10^18 centimeters
</span>
Now we scale things down, we treat 1.496 * 10^13 centimeters as a SINGLE centimeter, because that's the distance between the earth and the sun. So all we have to do is divide (4.014 * 10^18 ) by (<span>1.496 * 10^13 ).
Why? because that how proportions work.

As a result, you get a mere 268335.7 centimeters.

To put that into perspective, that's only about 1.7 miles

A lot of my numbers came from google, so they are estimations and are not perfect, but its hard to be on really large scales.</span>

A plane is flying east when it drops some supplies to a designated target below. The supplies land after falling for 10 seconds.
Ivanshal [37]

Part 1)

here we know that supply took 10 s to reach the ground

so here we will have

y = \frac{1}{2}gt^2

y = \frac{1}{2}\times 9.8 \times 10^2

y = \frac{1}{2}\times 9.8 \times 100

y = 490 m

Part 2)

Here all the supply covered horizontal distance of 650 m in 10 s interval of time

so here we can say

speed = \frac{distance}{time}

v = \frac{650}{10}

v = 65 m/s
