Physics
1 answer:
nikklg [1K]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The temperature of the Earth depends on many factors, including the concentration of greenhouse gases such as water vapour, methane and carbon dioxide. The Earth's temperature also depends on the rates at which light radiation and infrared radiation are: absorbed by the Earth's surface and atmosphere.

How much potential energy does a 50-N box have when lifted at a height of 1.5M?
nikitadnepr [17]

The correct answer is: Option (A) 75 J

Explanation:

First, be careful with the units here. As you can see it is mentioned that there is a 50N box. It means that the weight (<em>mg</em>) of the box is given as the unit is <em>Newton</em>, not its mass (which is in kg).

As,

Potential-energy = mass * acceleration-due-to-gravity * height

PE = m*g*h --- (A)


In equation (A), mg is actually the weight of the box, which is given.

mg = 50N

h = height = 1.5m

Plug the values in equation (A):

PE = 50 * 1.5  = <em>75 J (Option A)</em>

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

Tha ball- earth/floor system.

Explanation:

The force acting on the ball is the force of gravity when ignoring air resistance. At the moment the player releases the ball, until it reaches the top of its bounce, the small system for which the momentum is conserved is the ball- floor system. The balls exerts and equal and opposite force on the floor. <u>Here the ball hits the floor, because in any collision the momentum is conserved. Moment of the ball -floor system is conserved</u>. Mutual gravitation bring the ball and floor together in one system. As the ball moves downwards, the earth moves upwards, although with an acceleration on the order of 1025 times smaller than that of the ball. The two objects meet, rebound and separate.
