What happens when a moving object bumps into a stationary object?.

1 answer:

5 0

It depends on the mass of the moving object versus the mass of the stationary object. if the mass of the moving object is larger the stationary object will get sent into motion. if the mass of the stationary object is larger than the moving object, the stationary object will stay stationary and cause the moving object to do the same. if the two objects have the same mass, they will likely move together upon impact and then eventually come to rest.

How are mass, distance and gpe related

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

It is direct proportionality. The greater the mass, the greater is the gravitational potential energy. The equation for GPE is : GPE = mgh, where m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height above the ground. As you can see GPE is directly proportional to mass, and height. KT.

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is a function of both the mass of your system and the mass of the thing generating the gravity field around your system.

The relationship is linear, which means that if you multiply or divide one of the masses by some number but leave everything else the same, you multiply or divide the potential energy by the same number. A 3kg mass has three times the gravitation potential energy of a 1kg mass, if placed in the same location.

ss7ja [257]

Kinetic energy =1/2 mv^2

m=2ke/v^2 

m=2(34)/3.6^2 

m=5.24 

force normal = mg 
=5.24 x 9.8 
force normal = 51.4N

Humans can typically perceive frequencies that range from 20 Hz–20 kHz. Dogs can hear sounds up to 45 kHz. Dog whistles produce

Aleksandr [31]

Pitch is directly related to the frequency of the sound. In this item, we are given that the frequency of the sound is higher compared to those which are audible to the human being's ears. The pitch therefore of the dog's whistle is high.

On the other hand, the frequency and the wavelength of a certain wave are inversely proportional. This means that the high frequency wave will have a short wavelength.

Hence, the answer to this item would have to be "high pitch with a short wavelength"

The answer to this item is the second option.
