gravitational potential is directly proportional to the height of the object relative to a reference line and is given as
PE = mgh
where m = mass of object , g = acceleration due to
gravity and h = height of the object above the reference line .
as the skydiver falls , its height above the ground decrease and hence the gravitational potential energy of the skydiver decrease.
as per conservation of energy , total energy of the skydiver must remain constant all the time . hence the decrease in potential energy appears as increase in kinetic energy by same amount to keep the total energy constant
KE + PE = Total energy
so as the skydiver falls , it gains speed and hence the kinetic energy of skydiver increase since kinetic energy is directly proportional to the square of the speed.
when the parachute opens, the skydiver experience force in upward which tries to balance the weight of the skydiver. hence the speed of the skydiver decrease until upward force becomes equal to the downward force. hence the kinetic energy decrease just after the parachute opens
Electric force depends on the charge and the strength of the electric field. The equation that relates the three:
F = Eq where q is the charge and E is the electric field strength.
Answer:
Radio waves have a wavelength between 
and 
While,
X rays have a wavelength between 1m and 10km.
=> It is one of the condition of diffraction that the obstacle (coming in the way) must be comparable with the size of the wavelength.
=> This shows, that radio waves have a wavelength which is comparable with the size of buildings and can really easily diffract through it
=> While, X-rays are big enough to diffract through the wall.
So, if an X-ray technician stands behind a wall during the use of her machine, she will remain safe.
Answer:
<h2><u>Given </u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h2>
- Mass = 1025 kg
- Acceleration = 9.8 m/s²
<h2><u>To </u><u>Find</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h2>
Force
<h2><u>Solution</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h2>
We know that
F = mg
F = 1025 × 9.8
F = 10,045 N
Or,
10045/1000 = 10.045 Kilo Newton
