Two 5.0 kilogram objects have different gravitational potential energies. What property of the objects must differ?

Physics
1 answer:
ipn [44]3 years ago

Answer:

Height.

Explanation:

Potential energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position.

Mathematically, potential energy is given by the formula;

P.E = mgh

Where,

P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

Hence, the property of the object (having a mass of 5 kilograms) which must differ to have different gravitational potential energies is the height from which they are falling from.

The object having the higher height would have a greater gravitational potential energy than the lower object.

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Spherical concave mirrors

Explanation:

Like spherical convex mirrors, spherical concave mirrors have a focus. If the object is closer to the mirror than the focal point is, the image will be virtual, like we talked about before for the plane mirror and the convex mirror.

Concave mirrors, on the other hand, can have real images. If the object is further away from the mirror than the focal point, the image will be upside-down and real---meaning that the image appears on the same side of the mirror as the object.

The closer the object comes to the focal point (without passing it), the bigger the image will be.

You can try this yourself by looking into the concave side of a shiny spoon. If you look into the spoon while holding it at arm’s length, you’ll see an extremely magnified, upside-down image of your face. But as you bring the spoon closer to your eyes, the image will get bigger and bigger.

Compare an earthquake with a Richter scale magnitude of 5.5 to one with a magnitude of 7.5.
maksim [4K]
The 7.5 is a 100 times stronger than the 5.5 . The 100 comes from the increase in scale from 5.5 to 7.5 which is an increase of two so you multiply the strength of the weaker earthquake 10^7-5=10^2=100 and that gives you the strength of the stronger earthquake!

Llana [10]

Students were asked to place a mint in their mouths and determine how long it took for the mint to dissolve. The condition of the mint varied in each student group. One group of students were asked to leave a whole mint in their mouth, not moving it around, and let it dissolve. Another group swirled a mint, while the other groups used mints broken into smaller pieces. See the chart for all of the manipulated variable. After reviewing that data table, what kind of result would you predict for the swirled, whole mint?


A) The time is likely between 10-30 seconds.  

B) The time is likely between 40-80 seconds.  

C) The time is likely between 90-160 seconds.  

D)    The time is likely between 100-200 seconds.

 

            ANSWER: B) The time is likely between 40-80 seconds.


  EXPLANATION:The time is likely between 40-80 seconds.

By swirling the mint, this is agitating and creating a higher frequency of collisions between the saliva particles and mint particles, increasing the rate of dissolution. Therefore, the time is likely to be less than the mint cut in half but probably more than the mint when it is in small pieces.
