What impacts the amount of potential energy?

Elliot jumps up and down on a pogo stick. He weighs 600.N, and his pogo stick has a spring with spring constant 1100N/m. What is

tia_tia [17]

From conservation of energy, the height he will reach when he has gravitational potential energy 250J is 0.42 meters approximately

The given weight of Elliot is 600 N

From conservation of energy, the total mechanical energy of Elliot must have been converted to elastic potential energy. Then, the elastic potential energy from the spring was later converted to maximum potential energy P.E of Elliot.

P.E = mgh

where mg = Weight = 600

To find the height Elliot will reach, substitute all necessary parameters into the equation above.

250 = 600h

Make h the subject of the formula

h = 250/600

h = 0.4167 meters

Therefore, the height he will reach when he has gravitational potential energy 250J is 0.42 meters approximately

MARKING BRAINLIST | Which situation below would have the STRONGEST gravitational force between them?

maks197457 [2]

Case d) has the strongest gravitational force

Explanation:

The magnitude of the gravitational force between two objects is given by the equation:

$F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}$

where :

$G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1}s^{-2}$ is the gravitational constant

m1, m2 are the masses of the two objects

r is the separation between the objects

a) For this pair of objects:

m1 = 10 kg

m2 = 2 kg

r = 30 km = 30,000 m

So the gravitational force is

$F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(10)(2)}{30000^2}=1.48\cdot 10^{-18}N$

b) For this pair of objects:

m1 = 10 kg

m2 = 10 kg

r = 30 km = 30,000 m

So the gravitational force is

$F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(10)(10)}{30000^2}=7.41\cdot 10^{-18}N$

c) For this pair of objects:

m1 = 2 kg

m2 = 2 kg

r = 10 km = 10,000 m

So the gravitational force is

$F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(2)(2)}{10000^2}=1.33\cdot 10^{-17}N$

d) For this pair of objects:

m1 = 10 kg

m2 = 10 kg

r = 10 km = 10,000 m

So the gravitational force is

$F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(10)(10)}{10000^2}=6.67\cdot 10^{-17}N$

Therefore, the strongest gravitational force is in case d).

Sometimes you can see a faint reflection in the surface of a shiny plate or cup.Why ?

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

The degree of reflection whether faint or bright you see on the surface of an object is an indication that light particles had hit the surface. Since light is a wave and as part of its characteristics can get reflected. However, the amount of light reflected by a surface is dependent on the smoothness of the surface which can be shiny or dull, it can also be dependent on the nature of the surface which can be glass, water, and so on. So, from the question, you can see a faint reflection on the surface of a shiny plate or cup because of the smoothness of the surface which reflects the lights that hit it from a particular direction at the same angle.

What heat transfer occurs when warm air rises

Leni [432]

Convection. When a fluid such as air or water touches a hot object, it can heat up and then move in bulk as a fluid, thereby carrying the heat quickly to new locations. Hot air rising is a common example of heat convection.
