Answer:
Second Choice.
Explanation:
Jack's Power = W/t
Jill's Power = 2W/(0.5)*t
2/0.5 = 4
Jill's Power = 4*W/t
Jill's Power is 4 times greater than Jack's
Second Choice
In the part of the spectrum our eyes can detect (a spectrum is an arry of entities, as light waves or particles, ordered in accordance with the magnitudes of a common physical property, as wavelength or mass) Hope this helps you :D
"60 kg" is not a weight. It's a mass, and it's always the same
no matter where the object goes.
The weight of the object is
(mass) x (gravity in the place where the object is) .
On the surface of the Earth,
Weight = (60 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)
= 588 Newtons.
Now, the force of gravity varies as the inverse of the square of the distance from the center of the Earth.
On the surface, the distance from the center of the Earth is 1R.
So if you move out to 5R from the center, the gravity out there is
(1R/5R)² = (1/5)² = 1/25 = 0.04 of its value on the surface.
The object's weight would also be 0.04 of its weight on the surface.
(0.04) x (588 Newtons) = 23.52 Newtons.
Again, the object's mass is still 60 kg out there.
___________________________________________
If you have a textbook, or handout material, or a lesson DVD,
or a teacher, or an on-line unit, that says the object "weighs"
60 kilograms, then you should be raising a holy stink.
You are being planted with sloppy, inaccurate, misleading
information, and it's going to be YOUR problem to UN-learn it later.
They owe you better material.
The correct answer to the question is : B) The weight of the water, and C) The height of the water.
EXPLANATION :
Before coming into any conclusion, first we have to understand potential energy of a body.
The potential energy of a body due to its position from ground is known as gravitational potential energy.
The gravitational potential energy is calculated as -
Potential energy P.E = mgh
Here, m is the mass of the body, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
h stands for the height of the body from the ground.
We know that weight of a body is equal to the product of mass with acceleration due to gravity.
Hence, weight W = mg
Hence, potential energy is written as P.E = weight × height.
Hence, potential energy depends on the weight and height of the water.
