What is the gravitational potential energy of a 65.7 kg person standing on the roof of a 135 meter building?

1 answer:

8 0

For the purpose we will use the following equation for potential energy:
U = m * g * h
In the above equation, m represents the mass of the object, h represents the height of the object and g represents the gravitational field strength (9.8 N/kg on Earth).
When we plug values into the equation, we get following:
U= 65.7kg * 9.8 N/kg *135m = 86921.1 J = 86.92 kJ

viva [34]

Answer:

Q = 5267J

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity of copper (S) = 0.377 J/g·°C.

Q = MSΔT

ΔT = T2 - T1

ΔT=49.8 - 22.3 = 27.5C

Q = change in energy = ?

M = mass of substance =508g

Q = (508g) * (0.377 J/g·°C) * (27.5C)

Q= 5266.69J

Approximately, Q = 5267J

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

v = 50.5 m/s

Explanation:

F = (m)(^v/^t)

115N = (0.04551kg)(v/(0.020s))

2,526.917161 m/s² = v/(0.020s)

v = 50.53834322 m/s

v = 50.5 m/s
