Answer:

58.8J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Potential energy gained = 19.6J

  Let the mass of the first one = m

         Mass of the second one = 3m  

Unknown:

New potential energy = ?

Solution:

Potential energy is the energy due to the position of a body;

        P.E  = mgh

  The body were raised through the same height

   let the height = h

First potential energy;

        P.E  = 19.6 = m x g x h

Second potential energy;

       P.E  = 3m x g  h

From the first body;

       mgh = 19.6

Second body;

      P.E  = 3(mgh) = 3(19.6) = 58.8J

A man wishes to pull a crate 15m across a rough floor by exerting a force of 100 N. The
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

option (E) is correct.

Explanation:

Work done is defined as the product of force and the distance in the direction of force.

force, f = 100 N

Coefficient of friction, = 0.25

distance = 15 m

So, net force F = f - friction force

F = 100 - 0.25 x m g

Work = (100 - 0.25 mg) x d cosθ

For minimum work, the angle should be maximum.

So, the value of θ is 76°.

thus, option (E) is correct.

In a transformer, energy is carried from the primary coil to the secondary coil by:________
likoan [24]

In a transformer, energy is carried from the primary coil to the secondary coil by magnetic field in the iron core.

To find the answer, we have to know more about the transformer.

<h3>How transformer works?</h3>
  • An item utilized in the transfer of electric energy is a transformer.
  • AC current is used for transmission.
  • It is frequently used to modify the supply voltage between circuits without altering the AC frequency.
  • The fundamentals of mutual and electromagnetic induction govern how the transformer operates.
  • Magnetic field through the primary coil changes when primary coil current varies. the iron core of the secondary coil likewise has a magnetic field.
  • EMF is therefore generated in the secondary coil.

Thus, we can conclude that, in a transformer, energy is carried from the primary coil to the secondary coil by magnetic field in the iron core.

for any object suspended by any number of ropes, wires, or chains, how is the total amount of tension (tension in each rope adde
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

To calculate the tension on a rope holding 1 object, multiply the mass and gravitational acceleration of the object. If the object is experiencing any other acceleration, multiply that acceleration by the mass and add it to your first total.

Explanation:

The tension in a given strand of string or rope is a result of the forces pulling on the rope from either end. As a reminder, force = mass × acceleration. Assuming the rope is stretched tightly, any change in acceleration or mass in objects the rope is supporting will cause a change in tension in the rope. Don't forget the constant acceleration due to gravity - even if a system is at rest, its components are subject to this force. We can think of a tension in a given rope as T = (m × g) + (m × a), where "g" is the acceleration due to gravity of any objects the rope is supporting and "a" is any other acceleration on any objects the rope is supporting.[2]

For the purposes of most physics problems, we assume ideal strings - in other words, that our rope, cable, etc. is thin, massless, and can't be stretched or broken.

As an example, let's consider a system where a weight hangs from a wooden beam via a single rope (see picture). Neither the weight nor the rope are moving - the entire system is at rest. Because of this, we know that, for the weight to be held in equilibrium, the tension force must equal the force of gravity on the weight. In other words, Tension (Ft) = Force of gravity (Fg) = m × g.

Assuming a 10 kg weight, then, the tension force is 10 kg × 9.8 m/s2 = 98 Newtons.

The scale is 1:30 and their are 10 boulders. How many boulders are their in the real pond
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

the correct answer is C

Explanation:

When we express that the scale is 1:30 we mean that the objects of the realization are reduced by a factor of 30 in the graph, for example a distance of 30 cm in the graph is represented by a distance of 1 cm.

Therefore something that in the graph has n value to bring it to real size must be multiplied by the scale.

Applying this to our case if there is

               10 boulder on the chart

in reality there are #_boulder = 10 30

                                #_boulder = 300 boulder

so the correct answer is C

What is the approximate size of the Earth's magnetic field? (dont ask me to specify thats what the question is and im as confuse
Olegator [25]

Answer:

The Earth's magnetic field intensity is roughly between 25,000 - 65,000 nT (.25 -.65 gauss).

Explanation:

<em>To measure the Earth's magnetism in any place, we must measure the direction and intensity of the field. The Earth's magnetic field is described by seven parameters. These are declination (D), inclination (I), horizontal intensity (H), the north (X), and east (Y) components of the horizontal intensity, vertical intensity (Z), and total intensity (F). The parameters describing the direction of the magnetic field are declination (D) and inclination (I). D and I are measured in units of degrees, positive east for D and positive down for me. The intensity of the total field (F) is described by the horizontal component (H), vertical component (Z), and the north (X) and east (Y) components of the horizontal intensity. These components may be measured in units of gauss but are generally reported in nanoTesla (1nT * 100,000 = 1 gauss). </em><em>The Earth's magnetic field intensity is roughly between 25,000 - 65,000 nT (.25 - .65 gauss). </em><em>Magnetic declination is the angle between magnetic north and true north. D is considered positive when the angle measured is east of true north and negative when west.  The magnetic inclination is the angle between the horizontal plane and the total field vector, measured positive into Earth. In older literature, the term “magnetic elements” is often referred to as D, I, and H.</em>
