Using the GPE=MGH, M=0.5 kg, G=9.8m/s H= 2 m multiply those all together and we will have 9.8 J (joules)
Answer:
C. changing nuclear energy to radiant energy
Explanation:
Nuclear energy takes atoms in their potential state, split them (fission) or fuse them (fusion) creating chain reactions of radiant energy. Most nuclear electrical power plants use fission, radiant energy heats water making steam to spin turbines.
Or think of the atom bomb. Definitely potential energy until the fuse starts detonation and chain reactions. The radiant kinetic energy and shock waves were horrendous.
Answer:
k1 + k2
Explanation:
Spring 1 has spring constant k1
Spring 2 has spring constant k2
After being applied by the same force, it is clearly mentioned that spring are extended by the same amount i.e. extension of spring 1 is equal to extension of spring 2.
x1 = x2
Since the force exerted to each spring might be different, let's assume F1 for spring 1 and F2 for spring 2. Hence the equations of spring constant for both springs are
k1 = F1/x -> F1 =k1*x
k2 = F2/x -> F2 =k2*x
While F = F1 + F2
Substitute equation of F1 and F2 into the equation of sum of forces
F = F1 + F2
F = k1*x + k2*x
= x(k1 + k2)
Note that this is applicable because both spring have the same extension of x (I repeat, EXTENTION, not length of the spring)
Considering the general equation of spring forces (Hooke's Law) F = kx,
The effective spring constant for the system is k1 + k2
The correct choice would be
B) The Sun’s mass is much greater than Earth’s
The sun as we know has greatest mass in our solar system and lighter objects tends to orbit around the heavier objects. the mass of earth is very much smaller as compared to that of the sun. hence the earth orbits around the sun due to the force of gravitational attraction between the two objects.
60.3° from due south and 5.89 m/s For this problem, first calculate a translation that will put John's destination directly on the origin and apply that translation to Mary's destination. Then the vector from the origin to Mary's new destination will be the relative vector of Mary as compared to John. So John is traveling due south at 6.7 m/s. After 1 second, he will be at coordinates (0,-6.7). The translation will be (0,6.7) Mary is traveling 28° West of due south. So her location after 1 second will be (-sin(28)*10.9, -cos(28)*10.9) = (-5.117240034, -9.624128762) After translating that coordinate up by 6.7, you get (-5.117240034, -2.924128762) The tangent of the angle will be 2.924128762/5.117240034 = 0.57142693 The arc tangent is atan(0.57142693) = 29.74481039° Subtract that value from 90 since you want the complement of the angle which is now 60.25518961° So Mary is traveling 60.3° relative to due south as seen from John's point of view. The magnitude of her relative speed is sqrt(-5.117240034^2 + -2.924128762^2) = 5.893783 m/s Rounding the results to 3 significant digits results in 60.3° and 5.89 m/s
