Propose a hypothesis for how the position of the ball will affect the amount of its gravitational pull energy

1 answer:

4 0

<em><u>throwing a ball up initially has a lot of kinetic energy because it is moving upwards ( kinetic energy is energy which a body possesses by virtue of being in motion.) this all then get converted to gravitational potential energy, and for a moment it is stationary before it begins to fall again. by the time it has returned again, all the gravitational potential energy has turned back into kinetic.</u></em>

A heat engine does 200 j of work per cycle while exhausting 600 j of heat to the cold reservoir. what is the engine's thermal ef

AveGali [126]

The thermal efficiency of an engine is
$\eta= \frac{W}{Q}$
where
W is the work done by the engine
Q is the heat absorbed by the engine to do the work

In this problem, the work done by the engine is W=200 J, while the heat exhausted is Q=600 J, so the efficiency of the machine is
$\eta= \frac{W}{Q}= \frac{200 J}{600 J}=0.33 = 33 \%$

A pan hangs from a 50 cm spring. When a 10 kg mass is placed in the pan, it stretches the spring 6 cm. What is a function rule l

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Explanation:

A Spring stretches / compresses when force is applied on them and they are governed by the Hookes Law which states that the force required to stretch or compress a spring is directly proportional to the distance it is stretched.

$F = -kx$

F is the force applied and x is the elongation of the spring

k is the spring constant.

negative sign indicates the change in direction from equilibrium position.

In the given question, we dont have force but we know that the pan is hanging. We also know from the Newton's second law of motion that

$F=mg$

Inserting this into Hooke's Law

$mg=-kx$

computing it for x,

$-x=mg/k$

This is the model which will tell the length of the spring against change in the mass located in the pan.

PLEASE ANSWER ASAP BEFORE MY TEACHER AND MY MOM KILLES ME PLEASE ASAP

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

As you know, the denser objects have more weight per unit of volume, this will mean that the force that pulls down these objects is a bit larger.

This will mean that the denser objects will always go to the bottom.

This clearly implies that the red liquid, the one with one of the smaller densities, can not be at the bottom.

There are some cases where a liquid with a small density may become a lot denser as the temperature or pressure changes, and in a case like that, we could see the red liquid at the bottom, but for this case, there is no mention of changes in the temperature nor in the pressure, so this can be discarded.

The only thing that makes sense is that the red part at the bottom is the base of the tube, and has nothing to do with the red liquid.

Two identical resistors are connected in parallel across a 26-V battery, which supplies them with a total power of 7.1 W. While

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

A) R = 190.42 Ω

B) P = 5.325 W

Explanation:

We are given;

Total power;P_tot = 7.1 W

Voltage;V = 26 V

A)We are told that while the battery is still connected, one of the resistors is heated, so that its resistance doubles.

Thus, the power is doubled.

Now, formula for power is;

P = IV

Thus, since power is doubled, we have;

P = 2(IV)

Now, formula for current is; I = V/R

So, P = 2V²/R

Making R the subject, we have;

R = 2V²/P

In this question, P is p_total = 7.1 W

Thus;

R = (2 × 26²)/7.1

R = 190.42 Ω

B) Now, the resistance of the resistors are R and 2R.

Formula for power in this context is;

P = V²/R

Thus,

Total power delivered to the resistors is;

P = V²/R + V²/2R

P = 3V²/2R

P = (3 × 26²)/(2 × 190.42)

P = 5.325 W
