Answer:

C

Explanation:

C would make the most sense because the problem with fossil fuels is the fact that it emits greenhouse gases that warm up the earth over a long period of time as the climate has changed because of it.

What is the gravitational potential energy of a two-particle system with masses 4.5 kg and 6.3 kg, if they are separated by 1.7
zepelin [54]

Answer:

7.41 x 10^-10 J

Explanation:

m = 4.5 kg

M = 6.3 kg

d = 1.7 m

The formula for the gravitational potential energy is given by

U = \frac{-GMm}{d}

Where, G is the Universal gravitational constant

G = 6.67 x 10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2

U = \frac{-6.67 \times 10^{-11}\times 6.3 \times 4.5}{1.7}

U = - 1.112 x 10^-9 J

Now the separation is tripled, d' = 3 x d = 3 x 1.7 m = 5.1 m

Let the potential energy is U'

The formula for the gravitational potential energy is given by

U' = \frac{-GMm}{d'}

Where, G is the Universal gravitational constant

G = 6.67 x 10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2

U' = \frac{-6.67 \times 10^{-11}\times 6.3 \times 4.5}{5.1}

U' = - 3.71 x 10^-10 J

the work done is equal to the change in potential energy

W = U' - U

W = - 3.71 x 10^-10 + 1.112 x 10^-9

W = 7.41 x 10^-10 J
