The time must be measured with respect to gravity. As it falls, it has free fall that is the force acting on it will be the gravity.With the distance in account, d = 1/2 gt²

t = √(2d/g)

Some advantages would be that it's easy to understand and imagine. However, it misinforms the child for the fact that the planets actually conscribe ellipses around the sun.

What is the gravitational potential energy of a 150 kg object suspended 5m above the Earth's surface

ella [17]

The gravitational potential energy referred to the ground level is given by
$U=mgh$
where m is the mass of the object, $g=9.81 m/s^2$ is the gravitational acceleration and h is the height of the object with respect to the ground.

Therefore in our problem the potential energy is
$U=(150 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(5 m)=7357.5 J$

A pendulum is made by letting a 4 kg mass swing at the end of a string that has a length of 1.5 meter. The maximum angle that th

Answer:

Approximately $7.8\; \rm J$ .

Explanation:

The change in the gravitational potential energy of the pendulum is directly related to the change in its height.

Refer to the sketch attached. The pendulum is initially at $\rm P_2$ . Its highest point is at $P_1$ . The length of segment $\rm BP_2$ gives the change in its height.

The lengths of $\rm AP_1$ and $\rm AP_2$ are simply the length of the string, $1.5\; \rm m$ . To find the length of $\rm BP_2$ , start by calculating the length of $\rm AB$ .

$\rm AB$ forms a leg in the right triangle $\rm \triangle AP_1B$ . Besides, it is adjacent to the $30^\circ$ angle $\rm P_1\hat{A}B$ . Its length would be:
