gravitational potential is directly proportional to the height of the object relative to a reference line and is given as
PE = mgh
where m = mass of object , g = acceleration due to
gravity and h = height of the object above the reference line .
as the skydiver falls , its height above the ground decrease and hence the gravitational potential energy of the skydiver decrease.
as per conservation of energy , total energy of the skydiver must remain constant all the time . hence the decrease in potential energy appears as increase in kinetic energy by same amount to keep the total energy constant
KE + PE = Total energy
so as the skydiver falls , it gains speed and hence the kinetic energy of skydiver increase since kinetic energy is directly proportional to the square of the speed.
when the parachute opens, the skydiver experience force in upward which tries to balance the weight of the skydiver. hence the speed of the skydiver decrease until upward force becomes equal to the downward force. hence the kinetic energy decrease just after the parachute opens
Answer:
λ = 482.05 nm
Explanation:
The diffraction phenomenon and the diffraction grating is described by the expression
d sin θ = m λ
where d is the distance between two consecutive slits, λ the wavelength and m an integer representing the order of diffraction
in this case they indicate the distance between slits, the angle and the order of diffraction
λ = 
d sin θ / m
let's calculate
λ = 1.00 10⁻⁶ sin 74.6 / 2
λ = 4.82048 10⁻⁷ m
Let's reduce to nm
λ = 4.82048 10⁻⁷ m (10⁹ nm / 1 m)
λ = 482.05 nm
Answer:
IGNEOUS ROCKS
Explanation: Igneous rocks are those rocks that solidify from magma.
Igneous rock is divided into two ,they are:
1. Intrusive
Igneous rocks crystallized belowearth"s crust. Its cooling material is called lava.
2 Extrusive igneous rock is also known as known as volcanic rocks
Nuclear energy comes from nucleus of atoms which is released by nucleus fusion
<span>Equal and opposite forces that act on the same object are called balanced forces.</span>
