Answer:

Explanation:

Since the bell is at rest in an elevated position, we can assume that it only has potential energy.

U=mgh is the formula for potential energy where U=potential energy, m= mass, g=acceleration due to gravity, and h=height.

Plug in known variables....

U=200kg*9.8m/s^2*45m

U=88200 joules of potential energy or letter D.

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

Part a)

$v = \sqrt{xg + \frac{MLg}{m}}$

Part b)

t = 12 s

Explanation:

Part a)

Tension in the rope at a distance x from the lower end is given as

$T = \frac{m}{L}xg + Mg$

so the speed of the wave at that position is given as

$v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}$

here we know that

$\mu = \frac{m}{L}$

now we have

$v = \sqrt{\frac{ \frac{m}{L}xg + Mg}{m/L}$

$v = \sqrt{xg + \frac{MLg}{m}}$

Part b)

time taken by the wave to reach the top is given as

$t = \int \frac{dx}{\sqrt{xg + \frac{MLg}{m}}}$

$t = \frac{1}{g}(2\sqrt{xg + \frac{MLg}{m}})$

$t = \frac{2}{9.8}(\sqrt{(39.2\times 9.8) + \frac{8(39.2)(9.8)}{1}})$

$t = 12 s$

To measure the strength of an earthquake, you can use either a _____ scale or _____ scale.

allsm [11]

To measure the strength of an earthquake, you can use either a Richter scale or Mercalli scale. Richter scale uses the amplitued of the wave and the distance from the source. Mercalli scale uses observations of people and is not considered to be scientific as Richter scale.

An ideal battery would produce an extraordinarily large current if "shorted" by connecting the positive and negative terminals w

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

Resistance, $R=0.529\ \Omega$

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage of the battery, V = 9 volts

Current produced in the circuit, I = 17 A

We need to find the resistance when shorted by a wire of negligible resistance. It is a case of Ohm's law. The voltage is given by :

$V=IR$

$R=\dfrac{V}{I}$

$R=\dfrac{9\ V}{17\ A}$

$R=0.529\ \Omega$

So, the resistance in the circuit is 0.529 ohms. Hence, this is the required solution.

What happens in the gray zone between solid and liquid?

Reil [10]

Answer:

Hence from liquid to solid or solid to liquid the transition has to cross the grey zone. This grey zone transition is is very crucial which includes the intermolecular forces acting on the molecules and each atoms which makes the change in state from hot to cold and cold to hot.
