We know that potential energy is simply energy due to
position which has the formula:
PE = mass * gravity * height
We know that mass * gravity is weight, therefore:
PE = weight * height
27500 J = weight * 42 m

THIS IS THE COMPLETE QUESTION BELOW;
A layer of ethyl alcohol (n = 1.361) is on top of water (n = 1.333). To the nearest degree, at what angle relative to the normal to the interface of the two liquids is light totally reflected?
From Snell's Law,
(ni)/(nr) = Sin (θr) / Sin (θi)
Where
θi = Angle of Incidence
θr = Angle of refraction
ni = Refractive index given for ethyl alcohol
nr = Refractive index of medium from which light is refracted
ni = 1.361
nr = 1.333
, θr = 90° ( Critical Angle is reffered to as Angle of Incidence at refracted angle of 90°) (θi = θc)
(ni)/(nr) = Sin (θr) / Sin (θi)
1.361/ 1.333 = Sin (90°)/ Sin( θc)
1.021= 0.894/ Sin( θc)
Sin( θc)= (0.9794
θc = Sin⁻¹ 0.9794)
θc = 78.35°
Answer:
upper part second pic
Explanation:
if you observe the trend it increases with each lap and the guy increases the distance he has covered with each lap so distance increases with time
It would have to be 36,719 Km high in order to be to be in geosynchronous orbit.
To find the answer, we need to know about the third law of Kepler.
<h3>What's the Kepler's third law?</h3>
- It states that the square of the time period of orbiting planet or satellite is directly proportional to the cube of the radius of the orbit.
- Mathematically, T²∝a³
<h3>What's the radius of geosynchronous orbit, if the time period and altitude of ISS are 90 minutes and 409 km respectively?</h3>
- The time period of geosynchronous orbit is 24 hours or 1440 minutes.
- As the Earth's radius is 6371 Km, so radius of the ISS orbit= 6371km + 409 km = 6780km.
- If T1 and T2 are time period of geosynchronous orbit and ISS orbit respectively, a1 and a2 are radius of geosynchronous orbit and ISS orbit, as per third law of Kepler, (T1/T2)² = (a1/a2)³
- a1= (T1/T2)⅔×a2
= (1440/90)⅔×6780
= 43,090 km
- Altitude of geosynchronous orbit = 43,090 - 6371= 36,719 km
Thus, we can conclude that the altitude of geosynchronous orbit is 36,719km.
