The potential energy of the monkey at the given position is 600.9 J.

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

Potential energy is the energy stored in a body that depends upon the relative position of various parts of the body.

It increases with increase in the height of the object above the ground level.

<h3>Potential energy of the monkey</h3>

The potential energy of the monkey is calculated as follows;

P.E = mgh

P.E = mg (L sin43)

where;

  • m is mass of the monkey, given as 16.9 kg
  • g is acceleration due to gravity, given as 9.8 m/s²
  • L is length of the vine given as 5.32 m

Substitute the given parameters and solve potential energy of the monkey

P.E = (16.9)(9.8)( 5.32 x sin 43)

P.E = 600.9 J

Thus, the potential energy of the monkey at the given position is 600.9 J.

José and Laurel measured the length of a stick's shadow during the day. Without knowing the length of the stick, which of their
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

Option B.

Explanation:

Assuming the stick is in vertical position, its shadow depends on two factors: its length and the angle between the sun rays and the stick. When the angle is bigger, the lenght of the shadow increases, and vice versa. So, when the sun rays are parallel to the stick, the shadow may be small. Since they are nearly perpendicular to the Earth's surface at 12 o'clock, the shadow of the stick at that time should be minimal. It means that the measured shadow of 75 cm at 12:30 p.m. is almost impossible (Option B).

An object with more mass has more kinetic energy than an object with less
Ber [7]

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object is given in terms of its mass and object as :

K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

An object with more mass has more kinetic energy. An object with less  mass, if both objects are moving at the same speed, in opposite directions, will have less kinetic energy. The square of v will give positive number.

When a block slides a certain distance down an incline, the work done by
garik1379 [7]
That is -300 J, because the work = the force times the distance. When the distance is a positive value when it is going down, the distance is a negative value when it is going up. The only thing that change is the minus, the absolute value of the work remains the same
