What is called gravitational potential energy?

Physics
1 answer:

Answer:

Potential gravitational energy is the energy that the body has due to the Earth's gravitational attraction. In this way, the potential gravitational energy depends on the position of the body in relation to a reference level.

An airliner of mass 1.70×105kg1.70×105kg lands at a speed of 75.0 m/sm/s. As it travels along the runway, the combined effects o
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

The airliner travels 1.65 km along the runway before coming to a halt.

Explanation:

Given

Resistive forces = (2.90 × 10⁵) N = 290000 N

Mass of the airliner = (1.70 × 10⁵) kg = 170000 kg

Velocity of airliner = 75 m/s

Let the distance over moved by the airliner be equal to d

According to the work-energy theorem, the work done by the resistive forces in stopping the airliner is equal to the travelling kinetic energy of the airliner.

Work done by the resistive forces = (290000) × d = (290,000d) J

Kinetic energy of the airliner = (1/2)(170000)(75²) = 478,125,000 J

290000d = 478,125,000

d = (478,125,000/290,000)

d = 1648.7 m = 1.65 km

Hope this helps!!!

A wire as a length of 1.50m, diameter 0.60mm and resistance of 2ohms. calculate the resistance R of a wire of the same materials
Otrada [13]
  1. R=ρ×L/A

ρ=R×A/L

A=pie(r²)=pie(0.6²)=pie(0.36)=1.13

ρ=2ohm×1.13mm²/1500mm

ρ=0.0015ohm.mm

2. we were told that the wires were made of the same substance so the resistivity(ρ)is the same for both wires so:

R=ρ×L/A

R=0.0015ohm.mm×500mm/0.09mm²

R=8.3'ohm

so our resistance for the second wire is :

<em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em>R</em><em>=</em><em>8</em><em>.</em><em>3</em><em>'</em><em>ohm</em>

You're driving your new sports car at 85 mph over the top of a hill that has a radius of curvature of 525 m.
Bumek [7]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of the sports car, v = 85 mph = 37.99 m/s

The radius of curvature, r = 525 m

Let W_N is the normal weight and W_A is the apparent weight of the person. Its apparent weight is given by :

W_A=mg-\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

So, \dfrac{W_A}{W_N}=\dfrac{mg-\dfrac{mv^2}{r}}{mg}

\dfrac{W_A}{W_N}=\dfrac{g-\dfrac{v^2}{r}}{g}

\dfrac{W_A}{W_N}=\dfrac{9.8-\dfrac{(37.99)^2}{525}}{9.8}

\dfrac{W_A}{W_N}=0.719

or

\dfrac{W_A}{W_N}=71.9\%

Hence, this is the required solution.
