When a 5 kg rock is dropped from a height of 6 m on Planet X, it loses 24 J of GPE. What is the acceleration due to gravity on P
yan [13]

Answer:

g = 1.25m/s²

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 5kg

Height = 6m

Gravitational potential energy = 24J

To find the acceleration due to gravity;

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.

GPE = mgh

Substituting into the equation, we have;

24 = 5*6*g

24 = 30g

g = 30/24

g = 1.25m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration due to gravity on Planet X is 1.25m/s².

The barometric pressure in breckenridge, colorado (elevation 9600 feet) is 580 mm hg. how many atmospheres is this?
Maksim231197 [3]

1 atmospheric pressure = 760.0 mm Hg

Thus 580 mm Hg = (580 mm Hg/(760 mm Hg/atm))

= 0.763 atm

An airplane flying at 115 m/s due east makes a gradual turn following a circular path to fly south. The turn takes 15 seconds to
bulgar [2K]

To solve this exercise it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Centripetal and Perimeter acceleration of a circle.

The perimeter of a circle is defined by

P = 2\pi r

Where,

r= radius

While centripetal acceleration is defined by

a=\frac{v^2}{r}

Where,

v= velocity

r= radius

PART A)

The distance of a body can be defined based on the speed and the time traveled, that is

x = v*t

For our values the distance is equal to

x = 15*115=1725m

The plane when going to make the turn from east to south makes a quarter of the circumference that is

\frac{P}{4} = \frac{2\pi r}{4}

The same route you take is the distance traveled, that is

x = \frac{P}{4}

x = \frac{2\pi r}{4}

1725 = \frac{2\pi r}{4}

r = 1098.17m

PART B)

With the radius is possible calculate he centripetal acceleration,

a = \frac{v^2}{r}

a = \frac{115^2}{1098.17}

a = 12.04m/s^2

Therefore the radius of the curva that the plane follows in making the turn is 1098.17m with a centripetal acceleration of 12.04m/s^2
