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.

If you tie a rope to a tree and move it up and down, you are creating what kind of wave?
loris [4]
This is called a<em> standing wave</em> since the waves don't move ALONG the rope. They just kind of stand in one place on the rope. if you just whip a long rope that's not tied to anything, you see the wave move along the rope, this is a TRANSVERSE wave. When you crack a qhip you send a transverse wave down the whip which concentrates in the tip, accelerating the tip to faster than the speed of sound resulting in a tiny sonic boom or "whip crack".
