potential energy = m*g*h m=62kg g=9.81 m/s^2 h=410m multiply all those together and you get 249,370 Joules.

What energy level shell would have the greatest potential energy?

The energy level shell farthest from the nucleus would have the greatest potential energy. As electrons move farther from the nucleus, their potential energy increases due to the increasing distance from the positive charge of the nucleus. This is in line with the understanding that potential energy decreases as an object gets closer to a source of attraction.


Can an object have both potential and kinetic energy?

Yes, an object can have both potential and kinetic energy at the same time. For example, a swinging pendulum has potential energy at its highest point (due to its height above the ground) and kinetic energy at its lowest point (due to its motion).


What is the total momentum of cannon and shell before and after firing?

Before the cannon is fired, the momentum is zero. So, after firing, the momentum must still be zero. The momentum of the shell is equal and opposite to that of the cannon, because there is an action and an equal reaction force. Since the momentum difference must be equal: (mv)cannon = (mv)shell Thus, (mv)c - (mv)s = 0 A simple way of looking at it is this is: If the shell is 100 times lighter than the cannon then the shell will move off 100 times faster than the cannon recoils. Remember that, in explosions, the lighter portion moves off faster than the heavier one.


What is the electric potential inside a conducting spherical shell?

The electric potential inside a conducting spherical shell is zero.


What is the energy level within a shell?

The energy level within a shell corresponds to the main energy level of an electron in an atom. Electrons in the same shell have similar energy levels, which increase with distance from the nucleus. Each shell can hold a specific number of electrons based on its energy level.

Which electrons have the most energy in a atom?

Potential energy. Potential energy = mass * gravitational constant * height As you see, the further the electron is from the nucleus ( how " high " it is ) the more energy it contains. So, that would be the outer valance electron(s).


What is a 90mm cannon shell worth?

The value of a 90mm cannon shell varies by its condition. As of 2014 these shells sell at auction for around 50.00.

Which statement describes the relative energy of electrons in the shells of a calcium atom?

Electrons in higher energy shells of a calcium atom are farther from the nucleus and have more energy than electrons in lower energy shells. This is because as the energy level of a shell increases, the distance from the nucleus also increases, resulting in higher potential energy for the electrons.


What is the electric potential inside a conducting spherical shell?

When a shell explodes the fragments fly apart through no external force is acting on it does it violates newtuns law?

The source of the explosion comes from the stored chemical potential energy within the shell. However, the laws of physics still apply to this situation. Energy will be conserved: the sum of the chemical energy released by the explosive and the kinetic energy of the shell before the explosion will always equal sum of the combined kinetic energy of the fragments and the heat, sound, and light energy released by the explosion. Momentum will be conserved: the added momentum vectors of all the shell fragments will equal the momentum of the shell before it exploded. The shell fragments will not all travel in the same direction.


How do you spell shell in French?

a shell is une coquille, un coquillage (sea shell), une écaille (turtle), un obus (ammunition for a cannon)
