The potential energy of the body is "200 Joule".

According to the question,

Mass,

m = 10 kg

Height,

h = 200 cm

or,

= 2 m

g = 10 m/s⁻¹

As we know,

→ The potential energy will be:

= $mgh$

By putting the given values, we get

= $10\times 10\times 2$

= $200 \ Joule$

Thus the above answer is right.

A person having a mass of 85 kg sits on the edge of a horizontal rotating platform, 2.2 m from the center of the platform, and h

gulaghasi [49]

The angular momentum of the person is given by:
$L=mvr$
where $m=85 Kg$ is the mass of the person, $v=6.6 m/s$ is the tangential velocity, and $r=2.2 m$ is the distance of the person from the center of rotation. Using these data, we find
$L=(85 Kg)(6.6 m/s)(2.2 m)=1234.2 Kg \cdot m^2/s$

Assume a planet is a uniform sphere of radius R that (somehow) has a narrow radial tunnel through its center. Also assume we can

Drupady [299]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

Force at the surface = FR

Value of g at height h = g( 1 - 2 h / R )

force at height h = F_R ( 1 - 2 h / R)

F_R / 2 = F_R ( 1 - 2 h / R)

= F_R - 2 F_R xh / R

F_R / 2 = 2 F_R x h / R

1 / 2 = 2h / R

4h = R

h = R / 4 . Ans

b )

Value of g at depth d = g( 1 - d / R )

force at depth d = F_R ( 1 - d / R)

F_R / 2 = F_R ( 1 - d / R)

= F_R - F_R xd / R

F_R / 2 = F_R x d / R

1 / 2 = d / R

2d = R

d = R / 2

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

2.0 m

Explanation:

Energy is conserved.

Initial KE = Final PE + Work done by friction

½ mv² = mgh + Fd

½ mv² = mgh + mgμd

½ v² = gh + gμd

½ v² − gh = gμd

d = (½ v² − gh) / (gμ)

d = (½ (7.5 m/s)² − (10 m/s²) (2.1 m)) / ((10 m/s²) (0.35))

d = 2.0 m

A magnetic field points up through a loop where the area can be increased by dragging the side of the loop along the rails that

Aliun [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

The magnetic field is pointing upwards , so magnetic flux is upwards . Due to increase in area , magnetic flux in upward direction will increase . Hence according to Lenz's law , induced current will be such that it will try to counter this increase . It is possible if current is in clockwise direction . Due to it magnetic field will be induced in downward direction thus reducing the total magnetic flux.

Hence direction of induced current will be clockwise direction in the loop as shown in the image enclosed .

A centrifuge is used to test space pilots. The centrifuge spins with a centripetal acceleration of 6.54 g. If the length of the

Juliette [100K]

The centripetal acceleration is calculated using the following rule:
C = (v^2) / (r)
where:
C is the centripetal acceleration = 6.54 g = 6.54 * 9.8 = 64.092 m/sec^2
v is the speed of the centrifuge that we want to calculate
r is the radius of radius (length of centrifuge arm) = 15 m

Substitute with the givens to get the speed as follows:
64.092 = (v^2) / 15
v^2 = 961.38
v = 31.006 m/sec
