Answer:

11760 joules

Explanation:

Given

Mass (m) = 75kg

Height (h) = 16m

Required

Determine the increment in potential energy (PE)

This is calculated as thus:

PE = mgh

Where g = 9.8m/s²

Substitute values for m, g and h.

P.E = 75 * 9.8 * 16

P.E = 11760 joules

If you ride your bicycle down a straight road for 500m then turn around and ride back, your distance is____ your displacement.
Helen [10]

Answer:

C-less than

Explanation:

Distance is total distance traveled (1000m here if you stop where you started).

Displacement is your final distance from where you started (0m if you stop where you started).

0m<1000m

Why is an iron bolt attracted to a magnet?
icang [17]

Answer:

A. When it is in a magnetic field, it becomes a temporary magnet.

Explanation:

An iron bolt is attracted to a magnet because when in a magnetic field, the iron becomes a temporary magnet.

This is because the iron aligns their electrons in the magnetic fields.

  • This causes that attraction between the magnet and the iron.
  • Metals like iron are said to be ferromagnetic
  • Unpaired electrons in iron spin in such a way that they align with the magnetic fields of the magnet.

A small water pump is used in an irrigation system. The pump takes water in from a river at 10oC, 100 kPa at a rate of 5 kg/s. T
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

0.98kW

Explanation:

The conservation of energy is given by the following equation,

\Delta U = Q-W

\dot{m}(h_1+\frac{1}{2}V_1^2+gz_1)-\dot{W} = \dot{m}(h_2+\frac{1}{2}V_2^2+gz_)

Where

\dot{m} = Mass flow

h_1 =Specific Enthalpy (IN)

h_2 = Specific Enthalpy (OUT)

g = Gravity

z_{1,2} = Heigth state (In, OUT)

V_{1,2} =Velocity (In, Out)

Our values are given by,

T_i = 10\°C

P_1 = 100kPa

\dot{m} = 5kg/s

z_2 = 20m

For this problem we know that as pressure, temperature as velocity remains constant, then

h_1 = h_2

V_1 = V_2

Then we have that our equation now is,

\dot{m}(gz_1) = \dot{m}(gz_2)+\dot{W}

\dot{W} = \frac{(5)(9.81)(0-20)}{1000}

\dot{W} = -0.98kW
