Answer:

14 m

Explanation:

Applying,

P.E = WH............ Equation 1

Where P.E = potential energy at the highest vertical height, W = weight of the toy rocket, H = Vertical height.

Note: At the highest vertical height, the kinetic energy is 0 J

Therefore,

Mechanical energy(M.E) = Potential Energy(P.E)

make H the subject of the equation

H = P.E/W......... Equation 2

From the question,

Given: W = 10 N,  P.E = 140 J

Substitute these values in equation 2

H = 140/10

H = 14 m

Answer:

1=920

2=2300

Explanation:

from the question,

M¹=23

H¹=4

g=10(constant)

using the formula

P. E,= mgh

P. E= 23×10×4=920

P. E=23×10×10=2300

<span>A plane flies along a straight line path after taking off, and it ends up 210 km farther east and 90.0 km farther north, relative to where it started. we should use Pythagoras theorem for this. distance^2= 210^2 + 90^2.=228.47km, when rounding off this would comes around 230 km</span>

Describe the four factors that affect resistance.
defon
There are four factors affecting resistance which are Temperature, Length of wire, Area of the cross-section of wire and nature of the material. When there is current in a conductive material, the free electrons move through the material and occasionally collide with atoms.

What is the strength of the electric field in a region where the electric potential is constant?
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Where the electric potential is constant, the strength of the electric field is zero.

Explanation:

As a test charge moves in a given direction, the rate of change of the electric potential of the charge gives the potential gradient whose negative value is the same as the value of the electric field. In other words, the negative of the slope or gradient of electric potential (V) in a direction, say x, gives the electric field (Eₓ) in that direction. i.e

Eₓ = - dV / dx        ----------(i)

From equation (i) above, if electric potential (V) is constant, then the differential (which is the electric field) gives zero.

<em>Therefore, a constant electric potential means that electric field is zero.</em>
