B is correct. Ever wondered why ice floats in water?
Since there is no diagram I can see to prove my answer, I must infer that a heat source should be applied to the solid substance and cause the atoms in the solid to spread further apart and become a different state, in which atoms will be able to freely move, gas.
Answer:
U = 56877.4 J
Explanation:
The potential energy of a body is that which it possesses because it is located at a certain height above the surface of the earth and can be calculated using the following formula:
U = mgh Formula (1)
Where:
U is the potential energy in Joules (J)
m is the mass of the body in kilograms (kg)
g is the acceleration due to gravity (m/s²)
h is the height at which the body is found from the surface of the earth in meters (m)
Data
m= 81.4 kg
g= 9.8 m/s²
h = 71.3 m
Potential energy of Sean and the parachute at the top of the tower
We replace data in the formula (1)
U = m*g*h
U = (81.4 kg)*(9.8 m/s²)*(71.3 m)
U = 56877.4 N*m
U = 56877.4 J
Hello There!
Well, technically no. It has to be one or the other, it can't be both.
Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)
