100J is the answer hope this can help

The gravitational potential energy of the object is 100 J.

Gravitational potential energy stored in an object is the work done in raising the object to a height <em>h</em> against the gravitational force acting on it.

The gravitational force acting on a body is its weight mg, where m is its mass and g, the acceleration due to gravity.

Work done by a force is equal to the product of the force and the displacement made by the point of application of the force.

GPE = mgh

The weight of the object is given as 20 J and it is raised to a height of 5 m.

GPE =(mg)*h = (20 N)*(5m)=100 J

The gravitational potential energy of the object is 100 J.

A) gneiss

Explanation:

The likely rock that would be found here is gneiss.

A rock type that forms under a great deal of temperature and pressure is a metamorphic rock.

Such rocks would have their minerals crystallized when subjected to these extreme conditions.

  • Metamorphic rocks are changed rocks that are formed when minerals in rocks are subjected to extreme pressure and temperature before they start melting.
  • These rock type can form from either sedimentary or igneous rocks. In fact a metamorphic rock can also change into another one.
  • Examples of metamorphic rocks are gneiss, schist, hornfels, marble etc.

Halite, limestone and sandstone are examples of sedimentary rocks that forms by the accumulation of sediments or precipitation of ions form solutions.

Andrej [43]

Answer:

this measurement if feet is: 2.624672 ft

Explanation:

Notice that 80 cm can be expressed as 0.8 meters, and In order to convert from meters to feet, one needs to multiply the meter measurement times 3.28084. Therefore:

0.80 m can be written in feet as: 0.80 * 3.28084 feet = 2.624672 feet

A spherically-spreading EM wave comes from a 104.0 W source. At a distance of 9.6 m, what is the intensity of the wave?
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

Approximately 0.0898 W/m².

Explanation:

The intensity of light measures the power that the light delivers per unit area.

The source in this question delivers a constant power of \rm 104.0\; W. If the source here is a point source, that \rm 104.0\; W of power will be spread out evenly over a spherical surface that is centered at the point source. In this case, the radius of the surface will be 9.6 meters.

The surface area of a sphere of radius r is equal to 4\pi r^{2}. For the imaginary 9.6-meter sphere here, the surface area will be:

\rm 4\pi \times (9.6\; m)^{2} \approx 1158.12\; m^{2}.

That \rm 104.0\; W power is spread out evenly over this 9.6-meter sphere. The power delivered per unit area will be:

\displaystyle\rm  \frac{104.0\; W}{1158.12\; m^{2}}\approx 0.0898\; W\cdot m^{-2}.
