Answer:

1. 6.37 KJ

2. 3.185 KJ

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is a form of potential energy with respect to the force of gravity.

Gravitational potential energy = mass x acceleration due to gravity x height

i.e   PE = m x g x h

1. At the top of the platform; mass = 65 kg, acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s^{2}, and height = 10 m.

Gravitational potential energy = 65 x 9.8 x 10

                                                  = 6370 Joules

The gravitational potential of the diver at the top of the platform is 6.37 KJ.

2. Halfway down; mass = 65 kg, acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s^{2}, and height = 5 m.

Gravitational potential energy = 65 x 9.8 x 5

                                                  = 3185 Joules

The gravitational potential energy of the diver halfway down is 3.185 KJ.

What type of bond exists between the atoms in a molecule of N2?
vivado [14]

Answer:

covalent bonds

Explanation:

Nitrogen atoms will form three covalent bonds (also called triple covalent) between two atoms of nitrogen because each nitrogen atom needs three electrons to fill its outermost shell.

(if it is still confusing i have another way of explaining so jus let me know :)
