A flowerpot falls off a windowsill and falls past the window below. You may ignore air resistance. It takes the pot 0.380 ss to

pass from the top to the bottom of this window, which is 2.00 mm high.
How far is the top of the window below the windowsill from which the flowerpot fell?

Answer:

The top of the window is 0.5 m below the sill of the upper window  

Explanation:

We have the time the pot takes to fall a distance y- yo = 2.0 m and g = 9.8, from this we can calculate the velocity of the pot when it just reached the top of the window in question. Take the positive y direction to be downward  

y-yo=vo*t+I/2gt^2

  vo=(y-yo-I/2gt^2)/t

  vo=3.138 m/s

The flowerpot falls from rest and we have the velocity it gains until it reaches the top of the window below, from this information we can get the distance between the sill and the top of the window below.  

v^2=vo^2+2g(y-yo)

y-yo=(v^2-vo^2)/2g

      = 0.5 m

The top of the window is 0.5 m below the sill of the upper window

How long have advances in astronomy been occurring? Only for the past few years
solniwko [45]

I'd have to say that the list of choices doesn't go far enough.

Advances in Astronomy have been occurring for at least the past two millennia (2000 years).  Maybe longer.

For the PE formula, why is the height required for calculations? Why do we need to know the height in order to determine PE? *
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Answer in Explanation

Explanation:

Whenever we talk about the gravitational potential energy, it means the energy stored in a body due to its position in the gravitational field. Now, we know that in the gravitational field the work is only done when the body moves vertically. If the body moves horizontally on the same surface in the Earth's Gravitational Field, then the work done on the body is considered to be zero. Hence, the work done or the energy stored in the object while in the gravitational field is only possible if it moves vertically. This vertical distance is referred to as height. <u>This is the main reason why we require height in the P.E formula and calculations.</u>

The derivation of this formula is as follows:

Work = Force * Displacement

For gravitational potential energy:

Work = P.E

Force = Weight = mg

Displacement = Vertical Displacement = Height = h

Therefore,

P.E = mgh
