4. A cinder block is sitting on a platform 20 m high. It has a mass of 4 kg. The block has energy. Calculate it.

Physics

zavuch27 [327]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Since the block 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=4kg*9.8m/s^2*20m

U=784 joules of potential energy or letter A.

wel

Answer:

0.687 m/s

Explanation:

Initial energy = final energy

1/2 mu² = mgh + 1/2 mv²

1/2 u² = gh + 1/2 v²

Given u = 2.00 m/s, g = 9.8 m/s², and h = 0.180 m:

1/2 (2.00 m/s)² = (9.8 m/s²) (0.180 m) + 1/2 v²

v = 0.687 m/s

At which points would the river be traveling the slowest?
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

This would be traveling at the lower reaches.

Explanation:

A river would be traveling the fastest at the upper reaches and it becomes slower at the middle reaches and the slowest at the lower reaches. A place where water flows fast in a river is where the width is narrow and the bottom is steep. (This is just examples incase you would like to keep notes).

Two 25.0N weights are suspended at opposite ends of a rope that passes over a frictionless pulley. What is the tension in the ro
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

tension in rope = 25.0 N

Explanation:

  • Two forces act on the suspended weight. The force coming down is the gravitational force and the upward force by the tension in the rope.
  • Since the suspended weight is not accelerating so that the net force will be zero. Therefore the tension in the rope should be 25 N.

       ∑F = F - W = 0

       so

       F = W

       so tension in rope = F  = T  = 25 N
