An 8.10 kilogram box of mass is kept at a height of 0.99 meters above ground level. What is the potential energy of the box? (given g = 9.8 meters/second2). A. 68 joules. B. 79 joules. C. 81 joules. D. 99 joules. E. 1.0 × 102 joules

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The answer is B. 79 joules.

To calculate this we will use the formula for potential energy (PE):
PE = m * g * h
where m is mass of an object, g is gravitational acceleration, h is a height at which is the object.

It s given:
m = 8.10 kg
g = 9.8 m/s²
h = 0.99 m

After replacing them in the formula for potential energy:
PE = 8.10 * 9.8 * 0.99 = 78.6 J ≈ 79 J
Answer 2
Answer:

The answer would be 79J because when you multiply 8.1*0.99*9.8 you get 7.89, which rounds to 7.9.

Answer choice (B).

Sunlight is a form of electromagnetic energy.
a. True
b. False

Answers

It is true that sunlight is a form of electromagnetic energy. Electromagnetic energy is a form of radiant energy that released by electromagnetic radiation. One example of an electromagnetic radiation is the visible light. And visible light can be radio waves, infrared light and X - rays. The rays of the sun are a form of visible light. It has an electromagnetic radiation of UV (ultra violet) rays. That is why the radiation at day is greater than at day due to sun’s rays. 

Carlos gets tired of pushing and instead begins to pull with force Fpull at an angle to the horizontal.The block slides along the rough horizontal surface at a constant speed. A free-body diagram for the
situation is shown below. Blake makes the following claim about the free-body diagram:
Blake: “The velocity of the block is constant, so the net force exerted on the block must be zero.
Thus, the normal force FN equals the weight Fmg, and the force of friction Ff equals the applied
force Fpull.”
What, if anything, is wrong with this statement? If something is
wrong, identify it and explain how to correct it. If this statement is
correct, explain why.

Answers

Answer:

The wrong items are;

1) The normal for FN equals the weight Fmg

2) The force of friction, Ff, equals the applied force Fpull

The corrected statements are;

1) The normal force is weight less the vertical component of the applied force Fpull

FN = Fmg - Fpull × sin(θ)

2) The force of friction equals the horizontal component of the applied force Fpull

Ff = Fpull × cos(θ)

Explanation:

The given statement was;

The velocity of the block is constant, so the net force exerted on the block must be zero. Thus, the normal force FN equals the weight Fmg, and the force of friction Ff equals the applied force Fpull

By the equilibrium of forces actin on the system, given that the applied force acts at an angle, θ, with the horizontal, we have;

The normal force is equal to the weight less the vertical component of the applied force;

That is we have, FN = Fmg - Fpull × sin(θ)

The friction force similarly, is equal to the horizontal component of the applied force;

Ff = Fpull × cos(θ)

The wrong items are therefore as follows;

1) The normal for FN equals the weight Fmg

1 i) The normal force is weight less the vertical component of the applied force Fpull

FN = Fmg - Fpull × sin(θ)

2) The force of friction, Ff, equals the applied force Fpull

2 i) The force of friction equals the horizontal component of the applied force Fpull

Ff = Fpull × cos(θ).

Final answer:

While Blake's statement about the normal force is correct, his claim about the applied force and friction force is partially accurate. In reality,the horizontal component of the applied force should equate to the friction force for the block to maintain a constant velocity.

Explanation:

Blake's claim that the normal force FN equals the weight Fmg is correct as these forces balance each other in the vertical direction. However, his claim that the force of friction Ff equals the applied force Fpull is only partially accurate. In reality, the horizontal component of Fpull (i.e., Fpull * cos(θ)) should equate to the friction force Ff, to maintain the constant velocity (the block is not accelerating). The vertical component of Fpull (i.e., Fpull * sin(θ)) reduces the effective weight of the block and thereby, the normal force.

To correct Blake's claim, the normal force FN is equal to the weight of the block minus the vertical component of the applied force, and the applied force's horizontal component equals the friction force. Hence, this is the correct solution considering both vertical and horizontal components of forces.

A shorter electromagnetic wave is _____. more powerful less powerful hotter colder

Answers

Answer

more powerful 

Explanation
Electromagnetic waves are waves that do not require material medium for propagation. For example x-rays, UV and gamma rays.

From the wave equation, V= λf, when the wavelength is short the frequency is high. 
Frequency determines the intensity of the wave. When high the frequencies are high the waves has more penetrating power, hence more powerful. 

Answer:

More powerful

Determine the change in velocity of a car that starts at rest and has a final velocity of 20m/s north

Answers

The change in velocity of a car that starts at rest and has a final velocity of 20 meters/second north would be 20 meters/second.

What is acceleration?

The rate of change of the velocity with respect to time is known as the acceleration of the object. Generally, the unit of acceleration is considered as meter/seconds².

As given in the problem we have to find the  change in velocity of a car that starts at rest and has a final velocity of 20m/s north,

the final velocity of the car = 20 meters/second north

Change in the velocity = final velocity - initial velocity

                                      =20 - 0

                                      = 20 meter/second

Thus, the change in the velocity would be 20 meters/second

Im not too sure if I just dont understand but if something starts at rest, its not moving so Vi would be 0m/s and if the final velocity would be 20m/s North. Than the change would be 20m/s, its not asking for displacment so you don't need direction. I got my answer from doing Change in Velocity = Final velocity - Initial velocity

When Ava first opened her beverage, there were lots of bubbles. However, as her drink got warmer, she noticed that there were fewer bubbles in it. In general, as the temperature increases, the solubility of solids _______ while the solubility of gases _______. 1) increases, decreases 2) increases, increases 3) decreases, decreases 4) decreases, increases

Answers

In general, as the temperature increases, the solubility of solids increases, while the solubility of gases decreases. Therefore, the correct answer is 1) increases, decreases.

Final answer:

Generally, as temperature rises, solid solubility increases while gas solubility decreases. This is why when a carbonated drink gets warm, it has less bubbles.

Explanation:

Generally, as the temperature increases, the solubility of solids typically increases, while the solubility of gases usually decreases. Thus, for Ava's case with the beverage, as the drink got warmer (indicating an increase in temperature), the bubbles, which are gaseous, decreased. A real-life example of this is a carbonated drink. When you open a cold soda, it starts out very bubbly.

However, if you let it sit and warm up, the gas (carbon dioxide) becomes less soluble in the liquid and leaves the solution, resulting in fewer bubbles.
