The magnitude of gravity is expressed in terms of its acceleration. So the magnitude of ' g ' at that altitude is exactly 6.5 m/s^2.
Hi there!
We can use Newton's Second Law:
∑F = net force (N)
m = mass (kg)
a = acceleration (m/s²)
We are given the mass and acceleration, so:
∑F = 20 · 2 = <u>40 N</u>
Answer:
C. changing nuclear energy to radiant energy
Explanation:
Nuclear energy takes atoms in their potential state, split them (fission) or fuse them (fusion) creating chain reactions of radiant energy. Most nuclear electrical power plants use fission, radiant energy heats water making steam to spin turbines.
Or think of the atom bomb. Definitely potential energy until the fuse starts detonation and chain reactions. The radiant kinetic energy and shock waves were horrendous.
First,
where 
is density, 
is mass, and 
is volume. We can compute the volume of the roll:
When the roll is unfurled, the aluminum will be a rectangular box (a very thin one), so its volume will be the product of the given area and its thickness 
. Note that we're assuming the given area is not the actual total surface area of the aluminum box, but just the area of the largest face (i.e. the area of one side of the unrolled sheet of aluminum).
So we have
where 
is the given area, so
If we're taking significant digits into account, the volume we found would have been 
, in turn making the thickness 
.
