Answer:
(A) She needs to move the decimal point by 3 places
Answer:
B. - 0.328
Explanation
Potential Energy:<em> This is the energy of a body due to position.</em>
<em>The S.I unit of potential energy is Joules (J).</em>
<em>It can be expressed mathematically as</em>
<em>Ep = mgh........................... Equation 1</em>
<em>Where Ep = potential energy, m = mass of the coin, h = height, g = acceleration due to gravity,</em>
<em>Given: m = 2.74 g = 0.00274 kg, h = 12.2 m, g = 9.8 m/s²</em>
Substituting these values into equation 1
Ep = 0.00274×12.2×9.8
Ep = 0.328 J.
Note: Since the potential energy at the surface is zero, the potential Energy with respect to the surface = -0.328 J
The right option is B. - 0.328

Answer:
a.Distance = 150 m
b. Displacement = 50 m
Time lapsed = 5 seconds
Explanation:
a. Distance is the change in the position of an object.
The distance covered by the car = 100 + 50
= 150 m
b. Since displacement is a vector quantity,
Displacement of the car = 100 - 50
= 50 m due east
c. Time elapsed is the time taken for the motion of the car starting from when its starts to when it stops.
Thus, the time elapsed = 4 + 1
= 5 seconds
Explanation:
Given that,
The mass of rock, m = 2.35-kg
It was released from rest at a height of 21.4 m.
(a) The kinetic energy is given by : 
As the rock was at rest initially, it means, its kinetic energy is equal to 0.
(b) The gravitational potential energy is given by : 
It can be calculated as :
(c) The mechanical energy is equal to the sum of kinetic and potential energy such that,
M = 0 J + 492.84 J
M = 492.84 J
Hence, this is the required solution.
