Gravitational potential energy is an object that possesses because of its position in a gravitational field
Answer:
<h3> 1.40625m/s²</h3>
Explanation:
Using the equation of motion expressed as v = u+gt where;
v is the final velocity of the ball
u is the initial velocity
g is the acceleration due to gravity
t is the time taken
Given
u = 9m/s
v = 0m/s
t = 6.4s
Required
acceleration due to gravity g
Since the rock is thrown up, g will be a negative value.
v = u+(-g)t
0 = 9-6.4g
-9 = -6.4g
6.4g = 9
divide both sides by 6.4
6.4g/6.4 = 9/6.4
g = 1.40625m/s²
Hence the acceleration due to gravity on the planet is 1.40625m/s²
Answer: 8*10^-15 N
Explanation: In order to calculate the force applied on an electron in the middle of the two planes at 500 V we know that, F=q*E
The electric field between the plates is given by:
E = ΔV/d = 500 V/0.01 m=5*10^3 N/C
the force applied to the electron is: F=e*E=8*10^-15 N
Mass of the bird(m) = 150 g = 0.15 kg
Speed (v) = 10 m/s
Kinetic Energy = 
= 7.5 J
Altitude (h) = 15 m
Gravitational Potential Energy = (0.15)(9.81)(15) = 22.0725 J
Mechanical Energy = Kinetic Energy + Potential Energy = 7.5 + 22.0725
= 29.5725 J
