8 0

Answer:

gpe = mgh \\  = (mg)h

(mg)= weight

pe = (mg)h \\ 4500 = 15(mg) \\ mg = 300n

mg = 300N

Consider a solid metal sphere (S) a few centimeters in diameter and a feather (F). For each quantity in the list that follows, i
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

A) Gravitational Force is greater in S.

B) Time taken to fall a given distance in air will be greater for F.

C) Both will take same time to fall in a vacuum.

D) Total force is greater in S.

Explanation:

(a) In this case, the gravitational force of S will be greater, because Newton's Second Law states that - F = ma, or weight =mg. g is constant. And mass of the solid metal is heavier.

(b) In this case, the time it will take for F to fall from a given distance in air will be greater than that of S, since the air resistance is not negligible (as in the case of S).

(c) In this, It will take same time for S and F because in a vacuum, there are no air particles, so there is no air resistance and gravity is the only force acting and so objects fall at the same rate in a vacuum.

(d) The total force will be greater in S than F because Force=ma and S is of heavier mass than F.

What is the speed of sound at the atmospheric temperature of 30°C?
12345 [234]

The parcel will undergo projectile motion, which means that it will have motion in both the horizontal and vertical direction.


First, we determine how long the parcel will fall using:


s = ut + 1/2 at²


where s will be the height, u is the initial vertical velocity of the parcel (0), t is the time of fall and a is the acceleration due to gravity.


5.5 = (0)(t) + 1/2 (9.81)(t)²

t = 1.06 seconds

What happens to the particles of the liquid inside a thermometer when the thermometer is heated?
aev [14]
The particles of the liquid inside a thermometer speed up and spread apart when the thermometer is heated. In short, the particles expand from one another when they're heated, and become condensed and compact when chilled.

X-rays cannot pass through Earth's atmosphere. Which of these is the best location to place a telescope used to observe x-rays f
Amiraneli [1.4K]
Mountains, tops of buildings, and high-flying aircraft are all part of Earth's atmosphere, no matter how high they are. On the other hand, space doesn't belong to our atmosphere, it is outside of it. Having this in mind, the best location to place a telescope used to observe x-rays from stars is in space.

Calculate, for the judge, how fast you were going in miles per hour when you ran the red light because it appeared Doppler-shift
sammy [17]

Answer:

The doppler effect equation is:

f' = \frac{v +v0}{v - vs}*f

In the equation we have frequencies, but then we have the wavelengths of the lights, remember the relation:

v = f*λ

then:

f = v/λ

and v is the speed of light, then:

f = c/λ

where:

f' is the observed frequency, in this case, is equal to f = (3*10^17nm/s)/550 nm

f is the real frequency, in this case, is (3*10^17nm/s)/650 nm

vs is the speed of the source, in this case, the source is not moving, then vs = 0 m/s.

v is the speed of the wave, in this case, is equal to the speed of light, v = 3*10^8 m/s

v0 is your speed, this is what we want to find.

Replacing those quantities in the equation, we get:

(3*10^17nm/s)/550 = (3*10^8 m/s + v0)/(3*10^8 m/s)*(3*10^17nm/s)/650 nm

(650nm)/(550nm) = (3*10^8 m/s + v0)/(3*10^8 m/s)

1.182*(3*10^8 m/s) = (3*10^8 m/s + v0)

1.182*(3*10^8 m/s) -  (3*10^8 m/s) = v0 = 54,600,000 m/s

So your speed was 54,600,000 m/s, which is a lot.
