Explanation:
We will calculate the gravitational potential energy as follows.
=
= 1164000 J
or, = 1164 kJ (as 1 kJ = 1000 J)
Now, we will calculate the change in potential energy as follows.
=
=
= -873000 J
or, = -873 kJ
Thus, we can conclude that change in gravitational potential energy is -873 kJ.
9* m
Explanation:
Step 1:
We are given the initial length of the Pyrex glass dish at a particular temperature and need to calculate the change in the length when the temperature changes by 120° C. The coefficient of linear expansion of Pyrex is provided.
Step 2:
Change in length = Coefficient of linear expansion * Change in temperature * Initial length
Step 3:
Coefficient of linear expansion = 3* /°C
Change in temperature = 120°C = 120 K
Initial length = 0.25 m
Step 4:
Change in length = 3* * 120 * 0.25 = 9*
m
