Explanation:

$potential \: energy = mgh \\ m = 10kg \\ g = 10 \frac{m}{s} \\ h = 200cm = 2m \\ pe = 10 \times 10 \times 2 = 200joule \\ thank \: you$

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.

What is the gravitational potential energy of a two-particle system with masses 4.5 kg and 6.3 kg, if they are separated by 1.7

zepelin [54]

Answer:

7.41 x 10^-10 J

Explanation:

m = 4.5 kg

M = 6.3 kg

d = 1.7 m

The formula for the gravitational potential energy is given by

$U = \frac{-GMm}{d}$

Where, G is the Universal gravitational constant

G = 6.67 x 10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2

$U = \frac{-6.67 \times 10^{-11}\times 6.3 \times 4.5}{1.7}$

U = - 1.112 x 10^-9 J

Now the separation is tripled, d' = 3 x d = 3 x 1.7 m = 5.1 m

Let the potential energy is U'

The formula for the gravitational potential energy is given by

$U' = \frac{-GMm}{d'}$

Where, G is the Universal gravitational constant

G = 6.67 x 10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2

$U' = \frac{-6.67 \times 10^{-11}\times 6.3 \times 4.5}{5.1}$

U' = - 3.71 x 10^-10 J

the work done is equal to the change in potential energy

W = U' - U

W = - 3.71 x 10^-10 + 1.112 x 10^-9

W = 7.41 x 10^-10 J

A helium atom has a mass of mHe= 4.002604 u. When disassembled into its constituent subatomic particles (2 protons, 2 neutrons,

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

28.295244 MeV

Explanation:

$m_p$ = Mass of proton = 1.007276 u

$m_n$ = Mass of neutron = 1.008665 u

$m_e$ = Mass of electron = 0.000549 u

Mass of reactant is 4.002604 u

Mass of the products is

$2\times (m_p+m_n+m_e)=2\times (1.007276+1.008665+0.000549)=4.03298\ u$

(2 because there are 2 of each)

The difference in mass is

$4.03298-4.002604=0.030376\ u$

So, the work done in MeV would be

$0.030376\times 931.5=28.295244\ MeV$

The work done required to completely disassemble all the helium is 28.295244 MeV

A resistor is made out of a long wire having a length L. Each end of the wire is attached to a termina of a battery providing a

Len [333]

Answer:

B) 2I

Explanation:

The equation that relates voltage, current and resistance is V=RI.

The equation for the resistance of a material in terms of its resistivity, length and cross-sectional area is $R=\frac{\rho L}{A}$

In this case, the length is divided by 2 while keeping its resistivity (since it's the same material) and area, which means the resistance gets divided by 2. Then, looking at the equation I=V/R and keeping V constant, one deduces that since the resistance now is half than before then current now must be twice as before.

This is all intuitive in fact, cuting a homogeneous resistor in half and leaving the rest of the variables constant makes twice as easy for the electrons to cross the conductor, thus twice the current (one has to know that all the variables involved behave linearly, as the equations show).
