Answer:

<em>h = 20 m</em>

Explanation:

<u>Gravitational Potential Energy</u>

Gravitational potential energy (GPE) is the energy stored in an object due to its vertical position or height in a gravitational field.

It can be calculated with the equation:

U=m.g.h

Where m is the mass of the object, h is the height with respect to a fixed reference, and g is the acceleration of gravity or 9.8 m/s^2.

The weight of an object of mass m is:

W = m.g

Thus, the GPE is:

U=W.h

Solving for h:

\displaystyle h=\frac{U}{W}

The weight of the owl is W=40 N and its GPE is U=800 J.

\displaystyle h=\frac{800}{40}=20

h = 20 m

"How do changes in voltage or resistance affect current in an electric circuit?"
kicyunya [14]
We can answer the question by looking at the Ohm's law, which gives us the relationship between voltage (V), current (I) and resistance (R) of a circuit:
V=IR
equivalently, we can rewrite it as
I= \frac{V}{R}

by looking at the equation, we can make the following observations:
1) The current is proportional to the voltage: therefore, if the voltage increases, the current increases as well; if the voltage decreases, the current decreases too.
2) The current is inversely proportional to the resistance: if the resistance increases, the current decreases, and if the resistance decreases, the current increases.

A train of mass 320000 kg accelerate uniformly from rest. It takes 57 s to travel a distance of 810 m in a straight line. Find t
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

160,000 N

Explanation:

Given:

m = 320,000 kg

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = constant

t = 57 s

Δx = 810 m

Find: Fnet

Apply Newton's second law:

∑F = ma

Fnet = ma

To find Fnet, we must first find the acceleration.

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

810 m = 0 m + (0 m/s) (57 s) + ½ a (57 s)²

a = 0.50 m/s²

Fnet = (320,000 kg) (0.50 m/s²)

Fnet = 160,000 N

REY [17]

The discovery of ribozymes provide evidence that life on the early earth may have been based on RNA world hypothesis.

<h3>Origins of Life and the RNA World</h3>

We must think about how these mechanisms developed during evolution in order to completely comprehend the processes taking place in modern living cells.

The production of genetic information, which today requires incredibly complicated machinery and travels from DNA to protein via an intermediary called RNA, is the most fundamental of all such issues.

<h3>How did this equipment come to be? </h3>

One theory holds that there was an RNA world on Earth before contemporary cells emerged. This is the hypothesis.

RNA was a genetic information repository and a catalyst for chemical reactions in the earliest cells.

Proteins took over as the main catalytic and structural component of cells considerably earlier in the evolutionary process than DNA, which didn’t become the major genetic component until much later. If this hypothesis is correct, the departure from the RNA world was never truly complete.
