Formula for potential energy is V=mgh, where m is mass in KG, g is earth acceleration (10 m/s^2), and h its height in meters. We know mass, acceleration is constant and also known, we know height also. Lets substitute
V=75*10*300=225000[J]=225[kJ] - its the answer
Answer:
The angle of launch of the rubber band affects the initial velocity. The more the rubber band is stretched the more force it applies to return to equilibrium and the more kinetic energy that results in.
Answer:
7.93 lbs is equal to 3596.987 grams.
Explanation:
The weight in grams is equal to the pounds multiplied by 453.59237.
So... you would multiply 7.93 by 453.59237.
7.93 x 453.59237 = 3596.987

efficiency = (useful energy transferred ÷ energy supplied) × 100
It's easy to use this formula, but we have to know both the useful energy and the energy supplied. The drawing doesn't tell us the useful energy, so we have to find a clever way to figure it out. I see two ways to do it:
<u>Way #1:</u>
We all know about the law of conservation of energy. So we know that the total energy coming out must be 250J, because that's how much energy is going in. The wasted energy is 75J, so the rest of the 250J must be the useful energy . . . (250J - 75J) = 175J useful energy.
(useful energy) / (energy supplied) = (175J) / (250J) = <em>70% efficiency</em>
================================
<u>Way #2: </u>
How much of the energy is wasted ? . . . 75J wasted
What percentage of the Input is that 75J ? . . . 75/250 = 30% wasted
30% of the input energy is wasted. That leaves the other <em>70%</em> to be useful energy.
