GPE = 78,380 J
w = 39,240 N
First list what you know. You know the elephants mass and it’s height. You also know gravity on Earth. I will use g = 9.81.
m = 4,000 kg
h = 20 m
g = 9.81 m/s^2
You need to find the elephants weight. Weight = mass x gravity
w = mg
w = (4000 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)
w = 39,240 N (N = newtons)
Now, knowing the elephants weight, you can calculate its GPE.
Gravitational Potential Energy = weight x height
GPE = wh
GPE = (39,240N)(20m)
GPE = 78,380 J (J = joules)
Alpha particles travel through the air they collide with oxygen and nitrogen molecules. While they collide with these molecules, they lose some energy until all energy are used up and they are absorbed. These particles can be absorbed by a sheet of paper or by the air. On the other hand, beta particles and gamma particles move faster than the alpha particles and are poor at ionizing atoms or molecules thus it takes more of the material to be able to absorb these particles.
Answer:
Newton's Second Law tells us that the more mass an object has, the more force is needed to move it. A larger rocket will need stronger forces (eg. more fuel) to make it accelerate. The space shuttles required seven pounds of fuel for every pound of payload they carry.
Explanation:
V₁(O2) = 6.50<span> L
</span>p₁(O2) = 155 atm
V₂(acetylene) = <span>4.50 L
</span>p₂(acetylene) =?
According to Boyle–Mariotte law (At constant temperature and unchanged amount of gas, the product of pressure and volume is constant) we can compare two gases that have ideal behavior and the law can be usefully expressed as:
V₁/p₁ = V₂/p₂
6.5/155 = 4.5/p₂
0.042 x p₂ = 4.5
p₂ = 107.3 atm
You'll hear that force called different things in different places. It
may be called "electromotive force", "EMF", "potential difference",
or "voltage".
It's just a matter of somehow causing the two ends of the wire
to have different electrical potential. When that happens, the
free electrons in the copper suddenly have a burning desire to
travel ... away from the end that's more negative, toward the end
that's more positive, and THAT's an "electric current".
