What is the potential energy of a rock that weighs 10.0 kg and is sitting on top of a hill 100 meters high?l

Physics
1 answer:
Firlakuza [10]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

9800 J

Explanation:

P.E = mgh

  • m = mass
  • g = gravitational acceleration
  • h = height

P.E = (10.0)(9.8)(100) = 9800 J

A particle of mass M moves along a straight line with initial speed vi. A force of magnitude F pushes the particle a distance D
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial kinetic energy of M = 1/2 M vi²

let final velocity be vf

v² = u² + 2a s

vf² =  vi² + 2 (F / M) x D

Kinetic energy

= 1/2 Mvf²

= 1/2 M ( vi² + 2 (F / M) x D

1/2 M vi² + FD

Ratio with initial value

1/2 M  vi² + FD) / 1/2 M  vi²

RK = 1 + FD / 2 M  vi²

A vertical spring withk= 245N/m oscillates with an amplitude of 19.2cm when 0.457kg hangs from it. The mass posses through the e
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

 y = -19.2 sin (23.15t) cm

Explanation:

The spring mass system is an oscillatory movement that is described by the equation

      y = yo cos (wt + φ)

Let's look for the terms of this equation the amplitude I

     y₀ = 19.2 cm

Angular velocity is

     w = √ (k / m)

     w = √ (245 / 0.457

     w = 23.15 rad / s

The φ phase is determined for the initial condition   t = 0 s ,  the velocity is negative v (0) = -vo

The speed of the equation is obtained by the derivative with respect to time

     v = dy / dt

     v = - y₀ w sin (wt + φ)

For t = 0

     -vo = -yo w sin φ

The angular and linear velocity are related v = w r

      v₀ = w r₀

      v₀ = v₀ sinφ

      sinφ = 1

      φ = sin⁻¹ 1

      φ = π / 4    rad

Let's build the equation

      y = 19.2 cos (23.15 t + π/ 4)

Let's use the trigonometric ratio π/ 4 = 90º

      Cos (a +90) = cos a cos90 - sin a sin sin 90 = 0 - sin a

       y = -19.2 sin (23.15t) cm

A 50.0-kg projectile is fired at an angle of 30 degrees above thehorizontal with an initial speed of 1.20 x 102 m/s fromthe top
Advocard [28]

Answer:

a)  Em₀ = 42.96 104 J , b)   W_{fr} = -2.49 105 J , c)  vf = 3.75 m / s

Explanation:

The mechanical energy of a body is the sum of its kinetic energy plus the potential energies it has

        Em = K + U

a) Let's look for the initial mechanical energy

      Em₀ = K + U

      Em₀ = ½ m v2 + mg and

      Em₀ = ½ 50.0 (1.20 102) 2 + 50 9.8 142

      Em₀ = 36 104 + 6.96 104

      Em₀ = 42.96 104 J

b) The work of the friction force is equal to the change in the mechanical energy of the body

    W_{fr} = Em₂ -Em₀

     Em₂ = K + U

     Em₂ = ½ m v₂² + m g y₂

     Em₂ = ½ 50 85 2 + 50 9.8 427

     Em₂ = 180.625 + 2.09 105

     Em₂ = 1,806 105 J

     W_{fr} = Em₂ -Em₀

     W_{fr} = 1,806 105 - 4,296 105

     W_{fr} = -2.49 105 J

The negative sign indicates that the work that force and displacement have opposite directions

c) In this case the work of the friction going up is already calculated in part b and the work of the friction going down would be 1.5 that job

We have that the work of friction is equal to the change of mechanical energy

       W_{fr} = ΔEm

       W_{fr} = Emf - Emo

       -1.5 2.49 10⁵ = ½ m vf² - 42.96 10⁴

       ½ m vf² = -1.5 2.49 10⁵ + 4.296 10⁵

       ½ 50.0 vf² = 0.561

       vf = √ 0.561 25

      vf = 3.75 m / s
