What is the relationship between an object’s mass and its gravitational potential energy?.

Physics

antiseptic1488 [7]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

If we’re talking about objects on the Earth, the gravitational potential energy is given by:

Explanation:

PEg=mgh

so the energy is proportional to the mass ( m ), but also to the strength of the gravitational field ( g ), and the height ( h ) to which the mass is lifted.

You have a lightweight spring whose unstretched length is 4.0 cm. First, you attach one end of the spring to the ceiling and han
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

2.2nC

Explanation:

Call the amount by which the spring’s unstretched length L,

the amount it stretches while hanging x1

and the amount it stretches while on the table x2.

Combining Hooke’s law with Newton’s second law, given that the stretched spring is not accelerating,

we have mg−kx1 =0, or k = mg /x1 , where k is the spring constant. On the other hand,

applying Coulomb’s law to the second part tells us ke q2/ (L+x2)2 − kx2 = 0 or q2 = kx2(L+x2)2/ke,

where ke is the Coulomb constant. Combining these,

we get q = √(mgx2(L+x2)²/x1ke =2.2nC

Wave traveling at 330 m/sec has a wavelength of 4.3 meters. What is the frequency of this wave?
Rasek [7]

Answer:

76.74 Hz

Explanation:

Given:

Wave velocity ( v ) = 330 m / sec

wavelength ( λ ) = 4.3 m

We have to calculate Frequency ( f ):

We know:

v = λ / t [ f = 1 / t ]

v = λ f

= > f = v / λ

Putting values here we get:

= > f = 330 / 4.3 Hz

= > f = 3300 / 43 Hz

= > f = 76.74 Hz

Hence, frequency of sound is 76.74 Hz.

1. A sprinter races in the 100 meter dash. It takes him 10 second to reach the finish line
poizon [28]

Answer:

v = 10 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance covered by a sprinter, d = 100 m

Time taken by him to reach the finish line, t = 10 s

We need to find his average velocity. We know that velocity is equal to the distance covered divided by time taken. So,

v = d/t

v=\dfrac{100\ m}{10\ s}\\\\v=10\ m/s

Hence, his average velocity is 10 m/s.
