The increase in potential energy of his mother if her mass is 56.0 kg will be 6031.97 J.

<h3>What is gravitational potential energy?</h3>

The energy that an item has due to its location in a gravitational field is known as gravitational potential energy.

The potential energy increases by 3773 J

PE₂-PE₁=mg(h₂-h₁)

3773 J = 35.0 × 9.81 × (h₂-h₁)

(h₂-h₁) = 10.98

Case 2 ;

ΔPE =?

ΔPE=mg(h₂-h₁)

ΔPE=56.0 × 9.81 ×10.98

ΔPE=6031.97 J.

Hence, the increase in potential energy of his mother if her mass is 56.0 kg will be 6031.97 J.

noname [10]

Answer:

A police car with its siren on is driving towards you, and you perceive the pitch of the siren to increase.

Explanation:

In Physics, Doppler effect can be defined as the change in frequency of a wave with respect to an observer in motion and moving relative to the source of the wave.

Simply stated, Doppler effect is the change in wave frequency as a result of the relative motion existing between a wave source and its observer.

The term "Doppler effect" was named after an Austrian mathematician and physicist known as Christian Johann Doppler while studying the starlight in relation to the movement of stars.

<em>The phenomenon of Doppler effects is generally applicable to both sound and light. </em>

An example of the Doppler effect is a police car with its siren on is driving towards you, and you perceive the pitch of the siren to increase. This is so because when a sound object moves towards you, its sound waves frequency increases, thereby causing a higher pitch. However, if the sound object is moving away from the observer, it's sound waves frequency decreases and thus resulting in a lower pitch.

<em>Other fields were the Doppler effects are applied are; astronomy, flow management, vibration measurement, radars, satellite communications etc. </em>

Solve for the BMI weight 58kg Height 1.61​
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

BMI= weight/(height × height)          ; weight in kilogram and height in metter

     = 58kg / (1.61m  × 1.61m )

     = (58/ 2.5921) kg/m^{2}

     = 22.375  kg/m^{2}

     ≈ 22.4 kg/m^{2}
