How much gravitational potential energy would be gained by an object moved 3.0 m

Physics
1 answer:
spayn [35]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

a. 0.0 J

Explanation:

Such an object will gain no gravitational potential energy since it moves horizontally.

Gravitational potential energy is the energy possessed by two massive bodies at a distance from one another in the presence of gravity.

  • In the horizontal direction, there is no sense of gravity as the body is not moving away or towards the center of the earth.
  • Gravitational potential energy is expressed as;

           E = mgh

m is the mass

g is the gravity

h is the height

 Gravity component in the horizontal direction is 0

Jessica stretches her arms out 0.60 m from the center of her body while holding a 2.0 kg mass in each hand. She then spins aroun
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

a.) L = 2.64 kgm^2/s

b.) V = 4.4 m/s

Explanation: Jessica stretches her arms out 0.60 m from the center of her body. This will be considered as radius.

So,

Radius r = 0.6 m

Mass M = 2 kg

Velocity V = 1.1 m/s

Angular momentum L can be expressed as;

L = MVr

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

L = 2 × 1.1 × 0.6 = 1.32kgm^2s^-1

the combined angular momentum of the masses will be 2 × 1.32 = 2.64 kgm^2s-1

b. If she pulls her arms into 0.15 m,

New radius = 0.15 m

Using the same formula again

L = 2( MVr)

2.64 = 2( 2 × V × 0.15 )

1.32 = 0.3 V

V = 1.32/0.3

V = 4.4 m/s

Her new linear speed will be 4.4 m/s

Write a hypothesis for Part II of the lab, which is about the relationship described by F = ma. In the lab, you will use a toy c
Tanzania [10]
If you increase the mass m of the car, the force F will increase, while acceleration a is kept constant. Because F and m are directly proportional.
If you increase the acceleration a of the car, the force F will increase, while mass m is kept constant. Because F and a are directly proportional.

How can Newton's laws be verified experimentally; is by setting this experiment, and changing one variable while keeping the other constant, then observe the change in F.

Hope this helps.
