How much energy does a 50 kg rock have if it is sitting on the edge of a 15 m cliff?

Physics

noname [10]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

7350 J

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of the rock sitting on the edge of the cliff is given by:

U=mgh

where

m is the mass of the rock

g is the gravitational acceleration

h is the height of the cliff

In this problem, we have

m = 50 kg

g = 9.8 m/s^2

h = 15 m

Substituting numbers into the formula, we find:

U=(50 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(15 m)=7350 J

A bar magnet is dropped from above and falls through the loop of wire. The north pole of the bar magnet points downward towards
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

<em>b. The current in the loop always flows in a counterclockwise direction.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

When a magnet falls through a loop of wire, it induces an induced current on the loop of wire. This induced current is due to the motion of the magnet through the loop, which cause a change in the flux linkage of the magnet. According to Lenz law, the induced current acts in such a way as to repel the force or action that produces it. For this magnet, the only opposition possible is to stop its fall by inducing a like pole on the wire loop to repel its motion down. An induced current that flows counterclockwise in the wire loop has a polarity that is equivalent to a north pole on a magnet, and this will try to repel the motion of the magnet through the coil. Also, when the magnet goes pass the wire loop, this induced north pole will try to attract the south end of the magnet, all in a bid to stop its motion downwards.

The H line in Calcium is normally at 396.9 nm. However, in a star's spectrum, it is measured at 398.1nm. How fast is the star mo
agasfer [191]

As we know by Doppler's effect of light we have

\frac{\Delta \lambda}{\lambda} = \frac{v}{c}

here we will have

[tex}\frac{398.1 nm - 396.9 nm}{398.1 nm} = \frac{v}{c}[/tex]

here by solving above we have

3.01 \times 10^{-3} = \frac{v}{c}

here we have

v = 904.3 km/s

since wavelength is increased so we can say that it is moving away

so correct answer is

1- 904.3 km/s away from the Earth
