How could you increase the gravitational potential energy between yourself and the Earth?

Physics

pogonyaev4 years ago

Answer :


Gravitational Potential Energy, GPE = mgh

Where m is your mass in kg, g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s², and h is the height in m.

The only value that be controlled here is the height h.  The mass is constant, and acceleration due to gravity at that place is constant.

But h can be varied.

Hence to increase the gravitational potential energy between yourself and Earth is to increase the height h.

This can be done by climbing up a table, or climbing up a building through the stairs, or by using a lift.

Without the wheels, a bicycle frame has a mass of 8.29 kg. Each of the wheels can be roughly modeled as a uniform solid disk wit
trapecia [35]

Answer:

69.66 Joule

Explanation:

mass of bicycle frame, mf = 8.29 kg

mass of wheel, mw = 0.820 kg

radius, r = 0.343 m

velocity, v = 3.6 m/s

There are two wheels in the bicycle.

There are two types of kinetic energy of the system one is kinetic energy of rotation and another is rotational kinetic energy.

K = \frac{1}{2}m_{f}v^{2}+ 2\times \frac{1}{2}m_{w}v^{2}+ 2\times \frac{1}{2}I_{w}\omega^{2}

K = \frac{1}{2}m_{f}v^{2}+m_{w}v^{2}+ \frac{1}{2}\times m_{w}v^{2}

K = \frac{1}{2}m_{f}v^{2}+ \frac{3}{2}\times m_{w}v^{2}

K = \frac{1}{2}\times 8.29\times 3.6^{2}+ \frac{3}{2}\times 0.820\times 3.6^{2}

K = 69.66 J

The specific heat capacity of ethanol is 2440J/kg °C. How many joules of energy will be required to heat 150g ethanol to 35°C if
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Required energy = 4758 J

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity of a material is the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one kilogram (kg) of that material through one degree Celsius (°C).    

Given data :

Specific heat capacity = c = 2440 J/kg.°C

Mass = m = 150 g = 0.15 kg

Initial temperature = 22°C

Final temperature = 35°C

Change in Temperature = ΔT = 13°C

Energy = E = ?

Using the following formula and substituting the values, we get:

E = m × c × ΔT

E = 0.15 × 2440 × 13

E = 4758 J

Hi, please help me I need help.
sukhopar [10]

Explanation:

Trains that use magnetic levitation (maglev) are suspended above the track, which greatly reduces friction from the rails and allows the trains to travel between 250 and 300 miles per hour! Magnetic levitation uses attractive and repulsive magnetic forces to suspend and control the speeds and motion of the trains.
