GPE = Mass (Kg)  x Gravitational Field Strenght (g) x Height (m)


So you need Mass and Height of the object as well as the GFS. 
Assuming your using earth the GFS = 9.81g

The fast train known as the TGV (Train à Grande Vitesse) that runs south from Paris, France, has a scheduled average speed of 21
andrezito [222]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

average speed of train(v_{avg})=216 kmph\approx 60 m/s

Maximum acceleration=0.05g

Now centripetal acceleration is

a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}

0.05\times 9.8=\frac{60^2}{r}

r=7346.93 m

(b)Radius of curvature=900 m

therefore a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}

v=\sqrt{a_cr}

v=\sqrt{0.05\times 9.8\times 900}

v=\sqrt{441}=21 m/s

The mass of the car?
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

1050 kg

Explanation:

The formula for kinetic energy is:

KE (kinetic energy) = 1/2 × m × v² where <em>m</em> is the <em>mass in kg </em>and <em>v</em> is the velocity or <em>speed</em> of the object <em>in m/s</em>.

We can now substitute the values we know into this equation.

KE = 472 500 J and v = 30 m/s:

472 500 = 1/2 × m × 30²

Next, we can rearrange the equation to make m the subject and solve for m:

m = 472 500 ÷ (1/2 × 30²)

m = 472 500 ÷ 450

m = 1050 kg

Hope this helps!

If we put negative charge between two similar positive charges then what is it's equilibrium? And how?​
Gnesinka [82]

Your question has been heard loud and clear.

Well it depends on the magnitude of charges. Generally , when both positive charges have the same magnitude , their equilibrium point is towards the centre joining the two charges. But if magnitude of one positive charge is higher than the other , then the equilibrium point will be towards the charge having lesser magnitude.

Now , a negative charge is placed in between the two positive charges. So , if both positive charges have same magnitude , they both pull the negative charge towards each other with an equal force. Thus the equilibrium point will be where the negative charge is placed because , both forces are equal , and opposite , so they cancel out each other at the point where the negative charge is placed. However if they are of different magnitudes , then the equilibrium point will be shifted towards the positive charge having less magnitude.

Thank you

Describe an example where materials are prepared as fluids so that they can be moved easily
den301095 [7]

Answer:

In general solids are easier to transport than liquids, but the above metal example is a valid one and the only other one that comes to mind is that of concrete. It is mixed as a liquid and transported as such, but then sprayed or laid down to dry and form a solid surface or filler.
