Answer:

25.6 Joules

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of the brick is 25.6 J

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its position in a gravitational field.

Near the surface of a planet, the gravitational potential energy is given by

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the strength of the gravitational field

h is the height of the object relative to the ground

For the brick in this problem, we have:

m = 8 kg is its mass

g = 1.6 N/kg is the strenght of the gravitational field on the moon

h = 2 m is the height above the ground

Substituting, we find:

The gravitational potential energy of the brick is 25.6 J

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its position in a gravitational field.

Near the surface of a planet, the gravitational potential energy is given by

PE=mgh

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the strength of the gravitational field

h is the height of the object relative to the ground

For the brick in this problem, we have:

m = 8 kg is its mass

g = 1.6 N/kg is the strenght of the gravitational field on the moon

h = 2 m is the height above the ground

Substituting, we find:

PE=(8)(1.6)(2)=25.6 J

Research studies are made because they want to solve problems that are occurring in the society. The benefits of research would eventually benefit the politics, especially because they have the power to implement these solutions to the problems. They don't usually delve into research because it is too technical. It is not their area of expertise. Questions may come up that they can't answer.

The ends of a massless rope are attached to two stationary objects (e.g., two trees or two cars) so that the rope makes a straig
Virty [35]

Answer:

1. The tension in the rope is everywhere the same.

2. The magnitudes of the forces exerted on the two objects by the rope are the same.

3. The forces exerted on the two objects by the rope must be in opposite directions.

Explanation:

"Massless ropes" do not have a<em> "net force"</em> which means that it is able to transmit the force from one end of the rope to the other end, perfectly. It is known for its property of having a total force of zero. In order to attain this property, the magnitude of the forces exerted on the two stationary objects by the rope are the same and in opposite direction. <u>So this explains number 2 & 3 answers.</u>

Since the objects that are held by the rope are stationary, then this means that the tension in the rope is also stationary. This means that the tension in the rope everywhere is the same (provided that the rope is still or in a straight line, as stated in the situation above, and is being held by two points). <u>So, this explains number 1.</u>

A ray of yellow light (f = 5.09 × 1014hz) travels at a speed of 2.04 × 108meters per second in
denis23 [38]
Velocity = fλ

where f is frequency in Hz, and λ is wavelength in meters.

2.04 * 10⁸ m/s =  5.09 * 10¹⁴  Hz   *  λ

(2.04 * 10⁸ m/s) / (5.09 * 10¹⁴  Hz ) = λ

4.007*10⁻⁷  m =  λ

The wavelength of the yellow light = 4.007*10⁻⁷  m

An electrical motor provides 0.50W of mechanical power. How much time will it take motor to lift a 0.1 kg mass at constant speed
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

d. 4.0s

Explanation:

Mass = 0.1 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s^2

Force = 0.1 × 10 = 1N

Distance = 2m

Time = force × distance / power

        = 1 × 2/0.5

        = 4.0 s

The right option is d. 4.0s
