How much GPE, in Joules, does a 126 kg object have if it is sitting on a shelf 3 meters above the

Physics

Answer:

Ep = 3704.4 J

Explanation:

Data:

  • Mass (m) = 126 kg
  • Gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
  • Height (h) = 3 m
  • Potential Energy (Ep) = ?

Use formula:

  • Ep = m * g * h

Replace:

  • Ep = 126 kg * 9.8 m/s² * 3 m

Multiply, but it tells us that the units should not be used in the answer, so we solve it as follows:

  • Ep = 3704.4

What is the GPE?

The GPE is <u>3704.4 Joules.</u>

Which of the following statements apply to electric charges?
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

The statement "If a positively charged rod is brought close to a positively charged object, the two objects will repel " applies to electric charges.

Explanation:

There are only two types of electric charges. Both having own magnitude but different charge.

1. Positive charge

2. Negative charge

Like charges repel each other and opposite charges always attract each other.

When a positively charged rod is brought close to a positively charged object, the rod and the object will repel.

Adding or removing thermal energy to or from a substance does not always cause its temperature
julia-pushkina [17]
Change in thermal energy not always cause it's temperature change. It is the situation when water reaches either at 0 C or 100 C then thermal energy doesn't cause change in temperature instead it changes the state of matter.

In short, Your Answer would be "True"

Hope this helps!

7nadin3 [17]
Answer: 1.88

Explanation

Applying Snell’s Law, sin(1)/sin(2) = n(2)/n(1), where n is the index of refraction and sin 1 and 2 being of incidence and refracted respectively.

1) sin35/sin24 = n(2)/1.33
2) 1.41 = n(2)/1.33
3) n(2) = 1.41 x 1.33
4) n(2) = 1.88

Hope this helps :)
