By measuring the potential energy of an object relative to the ground, and the object's mass, you can calculate its speed when i

t hits the ground. Explain why you can do this.
A.because gravitational potential energy can convert to elastic potential energy
B.because gravitational potential energy can convert to kinetic energy
C.because the gravitational potential energy can convert to sound energy
D.because gravitational potential energy can convert to electric potential energy

Answer:

B.because gravitational potential energy can convert to kinetic energy

Explanation:

You can calculate the speed as it hits the ground because gravitational potential energy can convert to kinetic energy.

In this way, total energy can be conserved.

  • We can equate the kinetic energy and potential energy.
  • From this we can solve for the velocity.
  • This way, we know that the potential energy is changing to kinetic energy.

Explain how tidal forces are causing Earth to slow down.
dybincka [34]

Answer: The tidal forces exerted by the moon are directly associated with the earth's rotation. Due to the strong gravitational pull of the moon, the tidal bulging appears on both the sides on earth and these are region of high tide, and there is gradual rise and fall of sea level.

Because of these tidal effect, the earth is able to rotate only once in each of the orbital period.

Answer:

21.3 V, 1.2 A

Explanation:

1.

These resistors are in series, so the net resistance is:

R = R₁ + R₂ + R₃

R = 20 + 30 + 45

R = 95

So the current is:

V = IR

45 = I (95)

I = 9/19

So the voltage drop across R₃ is:

V = IR

V = (9/19) (45)

V ≈ 21.3 V

2.

First, we need to find the equivalent resistance of R₂ and R₃, which are in parallel:

1/R₂₃ = 1/R₂ + 1/R₃

1/R₂₃ = 1/10 + 1/10

R₂₃ = 5

Now we find the overall resistance by adding the resistors in series:

R = R₁ + R₂₃ + R₄

R = 10 + 5 + 10

R = 25

So the current through R₁ is:

V = IR

30 = I (25)

I = 1.2 A
