A Martian rover found an interesting rock that could contain signs of what Mars was like long ago. It grabbed it with its rover arm and raised it to a height of 0.2 m. Then it dropped it and found that it had a kinetic energy of 12 J when it struck the ground. Note that Mars has an acceleration due to gravity of 3.77 m/s2. Complete the following equations to determine the rock’s potential energy if it were brought to earth and dropped from a height of 1 meter. Use what you know about calculating gravitational potential energy to correctly set up and solve the equation.

We will use a video to study faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction by analyzing the induction that occurs due a coil of copper wire sliding along an air track that passes through an external magnetic field. specifically, we will: examine some of the main principles behind faraday’s law. apply lenz’s law to determine the direction of the induced emf. take measurements of the induced emf from the voltmeter as the coil passes into and out of the external magnetic field. use the horizontal scale provided to determine the speed of the coil. calculate the magnetic field induced in the coil as it passes into and out of the external magnetic field.
