Question 11 (1 point)

Physics

Ainat [17]2 years ago

Answer:

gravitational potential energy.

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy (GPE) can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position above the earth surface.

Mathematically, gravitational potential energy is given by the formula;

G.P.E = mgh

Where,

G.P.E represents gravitational 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.

This ultimately implies that, anytime there is height, the object must have gravitational potential energy.

Hence, an object possesses gravitational potential energy due to its height (position) and the earth's gravitational force.

How many neutrons does element X have if its atomic number is 48 and its mass number is 167?
Llana [10]
If its atomic number is 48, then it has 48 protons in the nucleus
of each atom.  Any more mass than that is supplied by the neutrons
that are mixed in there with the protons.

If the mass is 167, and 48 of those are protons, then there are

             (167 - 48)  =  119 neutrons

in each nucleus.

Answer:

Therefore, the moment of inertia is:

I=0.37 \: kgm^{2}

Explanation:

The period of an oscillation equation of a solid pendulum is given by:

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{I}{Mgd}} (1)

Where:

  • I is the moment of inertia
  • M is the mass of the pendulum
  • d is the distance from the center of mass to the pivot
  • g is the gravity

Let's solve the equation (1) for I

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{I}{Mgd}}

I=Mgd(\frac{T}{2\pi})^{2}

Before find I, we need to remember that

T = \frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{0.680}=1.47\: s

Now, the moment of inertia will be:

I=2*9.81*0.340(\frac{1.47}{2\pi})^{2}  

Therefore, the moment of inertia is:

I=0.37 \: kgm^{2}

I hope it helps you!

An object has a weight of 9 n when it is in air and 7.2 n when it is submerged into water. what is the specific gravity of the o
White raven [17]

The specific gravity of the object’s material is 5.09.

<h3>To calculate the specific gravity of the object:</h3>

Weight difference = 9 - 7.2 = 1.8 N = Buoyant force of water

Buoyant Force in water(Fb) = density of water x g x volume of the   body(Vb)

1.8 = 1000 x 9.81 x Vb

Vb = 1.8/9810 cubic meter

Now, in the air;

Weight of body = mg = 9 N

Mass of body,m = 9/9.81 Kg

So,

Density of body = m/ Vb

= 9/9.81 ÷ 1.8/9810

= 5094.44 kg per cubic meter

The specific gravity of body = density of body ÷ density of water

= 5094.44 ÷ 1000

= 5.09

Therefore, Specific gravity of body = 5.09

A 40 kg skier starts at the top of a 12-meter high slope at the bottom she is traveling 10 m/s how much energy does she lose fri
Iteru [2.4K]
Potential energy at top:
PE = mgh
PE = 40 x 9.81 x 12
P.E = 4,708.8 J

Kinetic energy at bottom:
KE = 1/2 mv²
KE = 1/2 x 40 x 10²
K.E = 2,000 J

P.E = K.E + Frictional losses
Frictional losses = 4708 - 2000
Frictional losses = 2708 J

The answer is D.
