Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 100 \ Joules}}$

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy can be found using the following formula.

$E_p=m*g*h$

where m is the mass, g is the gravitational acceleration, and h is the height.

The mass of the ball is 2 kilograms, its height is 5 meters, and the acceleration due to gravity is 10 Newtons per kilogram.

$m= 2 \ kg \\h= 5 \ m \\g= 10 \ N/kg$

Substitute the values into the formula.

$E_p=(2 \ kg)(10 \ N/kg)(5 \ m)$

Multiply the first 2 numbers. The kilograms (kg) will cancel out when multiplying.

$E_p=(20 \ N)(5 \ m)$

Multiply again.

$E_p=100 \ N*m$

1 Newton meter is equal to 1 Joule
Therefore, 100 N*m= 100 J

$E_p= 100 \ J$

The gravitational potential energy of the ball is 100 Joules.

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy

= mgh

= (2kg)(10N/kg)(5m)

= 100J.

Why do you think this appeal system is necessary in the legal system?

MatroZZZ [7]

Appeal system enables the higher court to review the case once again. Possible situation for appeal arises when the defendant consider punishment very tough.

Explanation:

The Appeal system is very important in the legal system. Appeal means a process which helps in reviewing the cases. In case of the appeal, a request is made to a higher court to look into the case once again.

This process helps those who feel that the earlier judgment in case of the case was not correct.

The Possible situation where someone needs to appeal is when the defendant is found guilty and we feel that the punishment given is very harsh. This is possible mostly in criminal cases.

What forces are those that act on an object causing the net force to be something other than zero?

Arisa [49]

Gravity is all ways pulling down and the normal force acting on top of the object and for it to have to push or pull to the object

if you run around a circle at 4.5 m/s and the circle has a radius of 7.7 m, what is your centripetal acceleration?

madreJ [45]

Answer:

Centripetal acceleration,

$a_{c} =2.63\ m/s^{2} }$

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration:

Centripetal acceleration is the idea that any object moving in a circle, in something called circular motion, will have an acceleration vector pointed towards the center of that circle.

Centripetal means towards the center.

Examples of centripetal acceleration (acceleration pointing towards the center of rotation) include such situations as cars moving on the cicular part of the road.

An acceleration is a change in velocity.

Formula for Centripetal acceleration:

$a_{c} =\frac{(velocity)^{2} }{radius}$

Given here,

Velocity = 4.5 m/s

radius = 7.7 m

To Find :

$a_{c} = ?$

Solution:

We have,

$a_{c} =\frac{(velocity)^{2} }{radius}$

Substituting given value in it we get

$a_{c} =\frac{(4.5)^{2}}{7.7} \\\\a_{c} =\frac{20.25}{7.7}\\\\a_{c} =2.629\ m/s^{2} \\\\\therefore a_{c} =2.63\ m/s^{2$

Centripetal acceleration,

$a_{c} =2.63\ m/s^{2} }$
