Answer:

588 J

Explanation:

PE (potential energy) = (mass) x (gravity) x (height)

mass = 12 kg

gravity = 9.8m/s^2

height = 5 m

PE = (12) x (9.8) x (5) = 588 J (Joules)

In a particular metal, the mobility of the mobile electrons is 0.0033 (m/s)/(N/C). At a particular moment, the electric field ev

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

the average drift speed of the mobile electrons in the metal is 1.089 x 10⁻⁴ m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

mobility of the mobile electrons in the metal, μ = 0.0033 (m/s)/(N/C)

the electric field strength inside the cube of the metal, E = 0.033 N/C

The average drift speed of the mobile electrons in the metal is calculated as;

v = μE

v = 0.0033 (m/s)/(N/C) x 0.033 N/C

v = 1.089 x 10⁻⁴ m/s.

Therefore, the average drift speed of the mobile electrons in the metal is 1.089 x 10⁻⁴ m/s.

Describe free fall and weightlessness ?<br>

yaroslaw [1]

weightlessness is the complete or near complete absense of the sensation of weight.

when in freefall,the only force acting upon your body is the force of gravity a noun contact force.since the gravity cannot be felt without any other opposing forces,you would have no sensation of it.you would feel weightless when in a state of freefall.
