Answer:

2.04m

Explanation:

PE=mgh

h= PE/mg

h= 40/2(9.82)

h=40/19.64

h=2.04

Answer:

20m

Explanation:

Formula to find the potential energy is,

Potential Energy = mgh

Here,

m = mass

g = gravitational field

h = height

According to the question, we have to find the height.

Usually, we get g is 10ms^{-2}

Let us solve for the answer now.

P.E. =mgh\\40J =2kg*10ms^{-2} *h\\40 = 20h\\\frac{40}{20}= \frac{20h}{20} \\20m=h

Hope this helps you.

Let me know if you have any other questions :-)

Two small plastic spheres are given positive electrical charges. When they are 16.0 cm apart, the repulsive force between them h
Drupady [299]

Answer:

q = 7.542 x 10⁻⁷ C = 754.2 nC

Explanation:

The Coulomb's Law gives the magnitude of the force of attraction or repulsion between two charges:

F = kq₁q₂/r²

where,

F = Force of attraction or repulsion = 0.2 N

k = Coulomb's Constant = 9 x 10⁹ N m²/C²

r = distance between charges = 16 cm = 0.16 m

q₁ = magnitude of 1st charge

q₂ = magnitude of 2nd charge

Since, both charges are said to be equal here.

q₁ = q₂ = q

Therefore,

0.2 N = (9 x 10⁹ N m²/C²)q²/(0.16 m)²

(0.2 N)(0.16 m)²/(9 x 10⁹ N m²/C²) = q²

q = √(5.88 x 10⁻¹³ C²)

<u>q = 7.542 x 10⁻⁷ C = 754.2 nC</u>

A runner achieves a velocity of 11.1 m/s, 9 sec after he begins. What is his
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

1.23 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

v = 11.1 m/s

t = 9 s

Find: a

Equation:

v = at + v₀

Plug in:

11.1 m/s = a (9 s) + 0 m/s

a = 1.23 m/s²

The runner's acceleration is 1.23 m/s².

What color is reflected one red green and blue light is shone on magenta paper
natulia [17]

Magenta is the psychological perception of the mixture of red and blue light
at high intensity, with the absence of green.  So your "magenta" paper is
absorbing the green and reflecting the red and the blue.
