A 70 kg student stands on top of a 5.0 m platform diving board . how much gravitational potential energy does the student have?
Marianna [84]

Answer:

a. P.E = 3430Joules.

b. Workdone = 3430Nm

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Mass = 70kg

Distance = 5m

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

To find the potential energy;

Potential energy = mgh

P.E = 70*9.8*5

<em>P.E = 3430J</em>

b. To find the workdone;

Workdone = force * distance

But force = mass * acceleration

Force = 70*9.8

Force = 686 Newton.

Workdone = 686 * 5

<em>Workdone = 3430Nm</em>

A yet-to-be-built spacecraft starts from Earth moving at constant speed to the yet-tobe-discovered planet Retah, which is 20 lig
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

The  time elapsed at the spacecraft’s frame is less that the time elapsed at earth's  frame

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The distance between earth and Retah is  d = 20 \ light \ hours =  20 * 3600 *  c =  72000c \ m

Here c is the peed of light with value c =  3.0*10^8 m/s

The time taken to reach Retah from earth is  t =  25 \ hours  =  25 * 3600 =90000 \ sec

The velocity of the spacecraft is mathematically evaluated  as

     v_s =  \frac{d }{t}

substituting values

   v_s =  \frac{72000 * 3.0*10^{8} }{90000}

    v_s =  2.40*10^{8} \ m/s

The time elapsed in the spacecraft’s frame is mathematically evaluated as

      T  =  t *  \sqrt{ 1 -  \frac{v^2}{c^2} }

substituting value

       T  =  90000 *  \sqrt{ 1 -  \frac{[2.4*10^{8}]^2}{[3.0*10^{8}]^2} }

        T = 54000 \ s

=>    T  = 15 \ hours

So  The  time elapsed at the spacecraft’s frame is less that the time elapsed at earth's  frame

Infrared observations of the orbits of stars close to the galactic center indicate a small object at the center with a mass of a
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

(4.31±0.38) million Solar masses.

Explanation:

The galactic center is the center of the milky way around which the galaxy rotates. It is most likely the location of a supermassive black hole which has a mass of (4.31±0.38) million Solar masses. The location is called Sagittarius A*.

As there is interstellar dust in our line of sight from the Earth infrared observations need to be taken.

Example of nuclear fission and nuclear fusion​
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

In fission, energy is gained by splitting apart heavy atoms, for example uranium, into smaller atoms such as iodine, caesium, strontium, xenon and barium, to name just a few. However, fusion is combining light atoms, for example two hydrogen isotopes, deuterium and tritium, to form the heavier helium.

Explanation:

I hope this helped you
