If a 12 kg cat is sitting 5 m up in a tree, how much PE does it have?

Physics
1 answer:
Helen [10]2 years ago
5 0

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)

Given a 10-V power supply, would a 20-ohm resistor and a 5-ohm resistor need to be arranged in parallel or in series to generate
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

The resistors will be in parallel to produce a net resistance of 4ohm and current in 20 ohm resistor will be 0.5A and 5ohm resistor will be 2A.

Explanation:

We are given 10 voltage power source and we have two Resistors with resistance of 20 ohm and 5ohm.

We need to find the orientation in which these two resistors would be arranged so that the circuit could get a current of 2.5Ampere.

Using ohm's law we have

V = I*R

V= voltage

I= current

R= resistance

10 = 2.5*R

R = 10/2.5 = 4ohm

that means we need a total of 4ohm resistance from these two resistors.

since the net Resistance(4ohm) is lower than the smallest resistance(5ohm) available that means the orientation of the resistors will be in parallel.

\frac{1}{R} = \frac{1}{R1} +\frac{1}{R2}\\                 = \frac{1}{20} +\frac{1}{5}\\ \\                 = \frac{1+4}{20} =\frac{1}{4}

R(net) =4ohm

Now the orientation of the resistors are in parallel so the current will be divided.

we know that the current will divide in opposite manner the arm which provides more resistance less current will flow from there and vice versa.

We know that the voltage in parallel remains same

In 20 ohm resistance

again using ohms law

V = i1*R1

10 = i1*20

i1 = 0.5A

in 5ohm resistor

V=i2*R2

10 = I2*5

i2 =2A

and i1+i2 = 0.5+2= 2.5A which means our calculation is correct.

Therefore the resistors will be in parallel to produce a net resistance of 4ohm and current in 20 ohm resistor will be 0.5A and 5ohm resistor will be 2A.

A plastic tube allows a flow of 15.9 cm3 /s of water through it. how long will it take to fill a 237 cm3 bottle with water? answ
xxMikexx [17]
You are given a fixed rate of 15.9 cm³/s. You are also given with the amount of volume in 237 cm³. Through the approach of dimensional analysis, you can manipulate through operations such that the end result of the units must be in seconds. The solution is as follows:

237 cm³ * (1 s/15.9 cm³) = 14.9 seconds

As the launch force increase the launch velocity will
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

As the launch force increase the launch velocity will

<em><u>Increase</u></em>

The reason for your answer to number six is because

<em><u>There is a direct relationship between force and acceleration.</u></em>

<em><u /></em>

Explanation:

<em>It is known all over the place that, there is a direct relationship between Force and acceleration of an object leading to an increase in force being directly proportional to the increase in the acceleration of the given object and vice versa.</em>
