Answer:
Newton's paw of universal gravitation states that a particle attracts every other particle in the universe using a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance in between them
The moon is very nearly a sphere (ball shape). We usually talk
about the "diameter" of a sphere, not its width.
The moon's diameter is about 2,159 miles or 3,475 kilometers.
That's about 27% (a little over a quarter) of the Earth's diameter.
Answer:
352,088.37888Joules
Explanation:
Complete question;
A hiker of mass 53 kg is going to climb a mountain with elevation 2,574 ft.
A) If the hiker starts climbing at an elevation of 350 ft., what will their change in gravitational potential energy be, in joules, once they reach the top? (Assume the zero of gravitational potential is at sea level)
Chane in potential energy is expressed as;
ΔGPH = mgΔH
m is the mass of the hiker
g is the acceleration due to gravity;
ΔH is the change in height
Given
m = 53kg
g = 9.8m/s²
ΔH = 2574-350 = 2224ft
since 1ft = 0.3048m
2224ft = (2224*0.3048)m = 677.8752m
Required
Gravitational potential energy
Substitute the values into the formula;
ΔGPH = mgΔH
ΔGPH = 53(9.8)(677.8752)
ΔGPH = 352,088.37888Joules
Hence the gravitational potential energy is 352,088.37888Joules
The Law of Conservation of Energy states that, in an isolated system, energy remains constant and can not be created or destroyed, only transferred from one form to another. This law was created by Julius Robert Mayer.
Answer:
Distance: 1600 m Displacement: 0
Explanation:
The distance is because He ran 400 meters 4 times getting 1600 m
4*400=1600
The displacement is 0 because displacement is the total distnce away from the starting point and since he ran laps around the track in the end he ended up in the same spot as last time.
