The centripetal force (of gravity) on a satellite in orbit is an
unbalanced force (because there's no equal force pulling
the satellite away from Earth), changes the direction of the
satellite (into a closed orbit instead of a straight line), and
always acts toward the center of whatever curve the satellite
happens to be on at the moment.
A mechanical wave can only travel through matter.
Answer:
C. 98 J
Explanation:
The appropriate formula is ...
PE = mgh . . . . . m is mass; below, m is meters
PE = (5 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(2 m) = 98 kg·m^2/s^2
PE = 98 J
Answer:
Explanation:
Kinetic energy of ball in motion = 1/2 m v² . Potential energy = 0
Let the minimum distance between the balls be d on collision.
Electric potential energy at that time= k Q²/d , Here kinetic energy is converted into potential energy . So
1/2 m v² = kQ²/d
d =2 k Q² / mv²,= 18 x 10⁹ x Q²/ m v².
