A stone of mass 6 kg is released from a height of 30 metre calculate the potential energy​

Physics
1 answer:
jenyasd209 [6]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

P.E = 1764 Joules

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 6kg

Height = 30m

We know that acceleration due to gravity is equal to 9.8m/s²

To find the potential energy;

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.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

P.E = 6 * 9.8 * 30

P.E = 1764 Joules

If you pull horizontally on a desk with a force of 150 N and the desk doesn't move, the friction force must be 150 N. Now if you
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

The friction force is 250 N

Explanation:

The desk is moving at constant velocity. This means that its acceleration is zero: a = 0. Newton's second law states that the resultant of the forces acting on the desk is equal to the product between mass (m) and acceleration (a):

\sum F=ma

In this case, we know that the acceleration is zero: a = 0, so also the resultant of the forces must be zero:

\sum F = 0 (1)

We are only interested in the forces acting along the horizontal direction, since it is the direction of motion. There are two forces acting in this direction:

- the pull, forward, F = 250 N

- the friction force, backward, F_f

Given (1), we have

F-F_f = 0

So the force of friction must be equal to the pull:

F=F_f = 250 N

Yung's experiment is performed with light of wavelength 502 nm from excited helium atoms. Fringes are measured carefully on a sc
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

1.082 mm

Explanation:

From the question, we can see that we were given The following

Wavelength of the atoms, λ = 502 nm = 502*10^-9 m

Radius of the screen away from the double slit, r = 1.1 m

We know that Y(20) = 10.2 mm = 10.2*10^-3 m

d = (20 * R * λ) / Y(20)

d = (20 * 1.1 * 502*10^-9)/10.2*10^-3

d = 1.1*10^-5 / 10.2*10^-3

d = 1.082 mm

Therefore, we can say that the distance of separation between the two slits is 1.082 mm

Which statement describes the relationship between energy and entropy in the universe?
rusak2 [61]

In fact, entropy of an isolated system never decreases (2nd law of thermodynamics), unless some external energy is provided in order to "restore" order in the system and decrease its entropy.

(note that when external energy is added to the system, it is no longer "isolated").


*This is only true if the question is referring to a certain system within the universe. If we are considering the universe itself as the system, then this option is no longer correct, because no external energy can be provided to the universe, and since the universe is an isolated system, its entropy can never decrease. If we are considering the universe itself as the system, none of the options is true.
