A ball with a mass of 500g is lifted onto a shelf which is 1.5m above the ground. Calculate the gravitational potential energy gained by the bal

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer you asked would be

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is the energy stored in an object due to its position above the Earth’s surface.

This is due to the force of gravity acting on an object. Gravitational potential energy is calculated as follows:

Ep = m × g × h so a Gravitational potential energy is the energy stored in an object due to its position above the Earth’s surface. so the answer would be A ball with a mass of 500g is lifted onto a shelf which is 1.5m above the ground. Calculate the gravitational potential energy gained by the ball (g = 9.8 N/kg).

Answer 2
First you would need to convert grams to kg:
500/1000=0.5

The equation for GPE is:
GPE[J]= m[Kg+metres] x g[N/kg+gravitational field strength] x h[m+height]

g or gravitational field strength is always 10 on earth.

So we know that:
m= 0.5kg
h=1.5m
g=10N/kg

So you would do:
0.5 x 1.5 x 10

Which is:
7.5

And since GPE is measured in joules the answer is 7.5J

Mike and Mariah are in the same science class. Mike wants to know how the water cycle transports energy and matter. Which of the following examples in Mariah's notebook should she share as the best example of how the water cycle transports both energy and matter?


Water transforms from a solid to a liquid to a gas.


Water transported through the water cycle is never created or lost.


Water vapor precipitates back into the ocean or the land after heating.


Water vapor rises into the air where colder temperatures cause it to condense and form clouds.

Answers

Answer:

Water vapor precipitates back into the ocean or the land after heating.

Explanation:

The water cycle is driven primarily by the energy from the sun. This solar energy drives the cycle by evaporating water from the oceans, lakes, rivers, and even the soil. Other water moves from plants to the atmosphere through the process of transpiration.

The statement which describes the matter and energy transport during water cycle is option c, water vapor precipitates back into the ocean or the land after heating.

What is water cycle ?

Water cycle is a geological phenomenon through which the water content in the atmosphere and hydrosphere is balanced. The heat radiated from sun warm up the water bodies make the convection currents that evaporates water.

The water vapor rise to the atmosphere and maintain the air moisture. When this vapor cools down they condense and precipitates as rain, snow or sleek.

This process involves the transfer of heat energy and matter. Here, the matter is water itself with its three phases. Therefore, the statement which describes the matter and energy transfer is option c.

Which of Newton's laws of motion states, 'every action force has an equal and opposite reaction force?'

A. Newton's 1st law of motion
B. Newton's 3rd law of motion
C. Newton's universal law of gravitation
D. Newton's 2nd law of motion

Answers

B

newton’s 3rd law of motion states that.
Formally stated, Newton's third law is: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. The statement means that in every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects. The size of the forces on the first object equals the size of the force on the second object

In which situation does Newton’s third law play a role?


A. A heavy train requires multiple engines to accelerate.

B. A rocket moves upward by blasting hot gases downward.

C. A car moves at a constant velocity

D. A ship stops its engines and gradually slows to a stop.

Does the number of particles change as the substance changes its state?

Answers

Answer:

no

Explanation:

No, the number of particles does not change as the substance changes its state. Change of state from one phase to another is achieved by providing or absorbing heat or pressure. For instance, liquid water if heated becomes vapour steam and if cooled becomes solid ice.

An object wants to maintain its state of motion because it has mass.

Why was it hard for the United States to avoid other nations’ problems?




due by 11:59pm helppp :''(

Answers

Answer:

Only a third of Americans are thought to hold passports -- compared to about 50 percent in Australia, more than 60 percent in Canada and some 80 percent in the United Kingdom. "

First of all, in order to travel even 500 miles from home in Europe, you need a passport, or at least you did until the EU got started.

In America, you can travel 500 miles from home for vacation very easily without one. And in Europe, it also doesn't cost an arm and a leg to take an international flight to visit a foreign country. You can hop a train or even drive. The average American faces hours of expensive plane or boat travel in order to go somewhere where a passport is required. I guess if you're made out of money you should have a passport, but millions of Americans don't live the kind of lifestyle where they can afford long-distance travel. (For some reason, this fact is really hard for jet-setting academics to get their minds around.)

For that matter, why would the average American want to go overseas, where they'll just be derided as a tourist? Sure, I would love to visit darkest Burma and hang out with some hill tribes, but pretty much the best that the average American can hope for, with the small amount of vacation time and money that they have for these things, is to not even get to Burma, and spend a weekend in Patpong.

Secondly...

"When they get wherever they are going, it is crucial that they live and study not just with other Americans, but also with local people of their own generation."

So basically they can go to Florence or London and party with other similarly entitled kids? You forgot "local people of a class other than their own."

When there is more speed does that mean there is more or less force?
When there is less speed does that mean there is more or less force?
When there is more mass does that mean there is more or less force?
When there is less mass does that mean there is more or less force?

Answers

Answer:

1. The answer is that there will be more force with more speed.

2. less speed means less force.

3. And last, but certainly not the least, the less the mass has, the less the force will be, unless the object is moving at a high speed.

Explanation:

If a heavy (more massive) object is in motion, more force must be applied to get the object moving faster. If the same force is applied to two objects, the object with the smaller mass will change speeds more quickly.

Based on the geologic column (diagram), the oldest rock would be found in: Layer O.

A geologic column can be defined as a collection of rock layers that are typically grouped based on their relative ages in an ascending order, usually from the youngest layer to the oldest.

In a geologic column, the youngest layer is usually at the top while the oldest layer is at the bottom.

Hence, each lower layer of a rock is older than the rock layers above it.

Based on the geologic column (diagram), the rock layer which is most likely to be the oldest rock is layer O because the youngest rock is at layer L i.e it sits on top (far left).
