As we know that gravitational potential energy is given by
here we have
m = mass = 120 kg
h = height = 8.2 m
now from above formula
so above is the gravitational potential energy of the couch
Answer:
The ocean tides on earth are caused by both the moon's gravity and the sun's gravity. ... Even though the sun is much more massive and therefore has stronger overall gravity than the moon, the moon is closer to the earth so that its gravitational gradient is stronger than that of the sun.
The other 4 kg of mass may have departed the scene
of the fire, in the form of gases and smoke particles.
Answer: question 1 is b I believe
Explanation:
every action has an opposite reaction
Answer:
a) v₁fin = 3.7059 m/s (→)
b) v₂fin = 1.0588 m/s (→)
Explanation:
a) Given
m₁ = 0.5 Kg
L = 70 cm = 0.7 m
v₁in = 0 m/s ⇒ Kin = 0 J
v₁fin = ?
h<em>in </em>= L = 0.7 m
h<em>fin </em>= 0 m ⇒ U<em>fin</em> = 0 J
The speed of the ball before the collision can be obtained as follows
Einitial = Efinal
⇒ Kin + Uin = Kfin + Ufin
⇒ 0 + m*g*h<em>in</em> = 0.5*m*v₁fin² + 0
⇒ v₁fin = √(2*g*h<em>in</em>) = √(2*(9.81 m/s²)*(0.70 m))
⇒ v₁fin = 3.7059 m/s (→)
b) Given
m₁ = 0.5 Kg
m₂ = 3.0 Kg
v₁ = 3.7059 m/s (→)
v₂ = 0 m/s
v₂fin = ?
The speed of the block just after the collision can be obtained using the equation
v₂fin = 2*m₁*v₁ / (m₁ + m₂)
⇒ v₂fin = (2*0.5 Kg*3.7059 m/s) / (0.5 Kg + 3.0 Kg)
⇒ v₂fin = 1.0588 m/s (→)
