Height=h=102m
Mass=m=120g
Acceleration due to gravity=g=10m/s^2

$\\ \sf\longmapsto P.E=mgh$

P E means potential energy

$\\ \sf\longmapsto P.E=102(120)(10)$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto P.E=122400J$

Whats the difference between speed and velocity of an object

ss7ja [257]

The difference between speed and velocity is that the speed is a scalar quantity which means that you can say that this object has a speed of x m/s but you don't have to define its direction
while the velocity is a vector quantity which means that you have to express the velocity by which it moves in x,y and z directions and its norm is the speed

A(n) signal carries information by copying an original sound.

viva [34]

An analog signal carries information by copying an original sound
When we speak through the microphone, it turns our sound into some sort of electronic wave.
This electronic wave is caught by a recording device and later could be replicated into Mp3 file that we usually listen to

A metallic sheet has a large number of slits, 5.0 mm wide and 20 cm apart, and is used as a diffraction grating for microwaves.

san4es73 [151]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the principle of superposition and constructive interference, that is to say everything that refers to an overlap of two or more equal frequency waves, which when interfering create a new pattern of waves of greater intensity (amplitude) whose cusp is the antinode.

Mathematically its definition can be given as:

$d sin\theta =m\lambda$

Where

d = Width of the slit

$\theta =$ Angle between the beam and the source

m = Order (any integer) which represent the number of repetition of the spectrum, at this case 1 (maximum respect the wavelength)

Since the point of the theta angle for which the diffraction becomes maximum will be when it is worth one then we have to:

$\lambda = d$

$\lambda = 20cm = 20*10^{-2}m$

Applying the given relation of frequency, speed and wavelength then we will have that the frequency would be:

$f = \frac{v}{\lambda}$

Here the velocity is equal to the speed of light and the wavelength to the value previously found.

$f = \frac{3*10^8}{0.2}$

$f = 1.5Ghz$

Therefore the smallest microwave frequency for which only the central maximum occurs is 1.5Ghz
