Answer:  

A person walks up a flight of stairs.

Wind lifts a balloon into the air.

A weightlifter holds a barbell straight overhead

Explanation:

<u>Gravitational potential energy is possessed by a body due to virtue of its position (height). </u>

A body placed some height above the ground possesses gravitational potential energy which is equal to the work done to lift it.

Thus, a person who walks up a flight of stairs, a weightlifter holding barbell straight overhead and wind lifting balloon into the air have gravitational potential energy.

Law Incorporation [45]
Here, you need to use your "Protractor" as it is given in the question, but we can calculate the value with the help of our mathematical calculation too:
[ Protractor can be use only in real life, not here ]

Draw an imaginary line from initial position to final position.
Now, In that triangle, tan x = P/B
tan x = 1.4 / 2
tan x = 0.70
x = tan⁻¹ (0.70)
x = 35  [ tan 35 = 0.70 ]

In short, Your Answer would be 35 degrees

Hope this helps!

When sodium reacts with chlorine, sodium chloride is produced. Andrew represented this reaction with this equation:
kvv77 [185]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

B) Not Balanced

B) Sodium

B) Not Equal

The equation is <em><u>not balanced</u></em> because the number of <em><u>sodium atoms</u></em> is <em><u>not equal</u></em> on both sides of the arrow.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of reactants should always be the same as the mass of the products in a chemical equation.</u></em> Therefore, the number of atoms of each element in a chemical equation should always be the same on both sides of the equation, that is the side of reactants and side of products.
  • Therefore,<u><em>any chemical equation requires balancing to ensure that the number of atoms of each element is equal in both sides of the equation</em></u>. Balancing is a try and error process that ensures that the law of conservation of mass holds.
  • Thus, the balanced chemical equation is;

2Na + Cl2 → 2NaCl

Answer:

The distance that you marginally able to discern that there are two headlights rather than a single light source is 6.084 km

Explanation:

Given:

d = distance = 0.679 m

λ = wavelength of the light = 537 nm = 537x10⁻⁹m

dp = pupil diameter = 4.81 mm = 0.00481 m

Question: What distance, in kilometers, are you marginally able to discern that there are two headlights rather than a single light source, dx = ?

For the separation of the peak from the central maximum it is:

sin\theta =\frac{\lambda }{d_{p} } =\frac{537x10^{-9} }{0.00481} =1.116x10^{-4}

In this case, the two small sources of the headlights have the same angle as the images that form inside the eye

d_{x} =\frac{d}{sin\theta } =\frac{0.679}{1.116x10^{-4} } =6.084x10^{3} m=6.084km

Rita places a 2.5 kg block on a frictionless inclined plane that is 30 degrees above horizontal. She applies a horizontal force,
vitfil [10]

Answer:

14.2

Explanation:

find horizontal force of the weight = 2.5kg x 9.8 Sin30 = 12.3 N

to prevent the sliding she needs to pull horizontally

Fh = 12.3 /Cos 30 =14.2N

Calculate the amount of work done if you use a 100N force to push a 50kg box 5m across the kitchen floor.
irinina [24]
So if the formula for work is force times displacement times cosine(theta), you'd plug in the numbers

100x5 (since there's no angle in the problem, cosine(theta) isn't used

100x5 = 500

So the answer would be B.

Hope that helps!
