Picture 1 and 2 or am I wrong and it's not that obvious.

Gravitational potential energy is given by the equation GPE = mgh

So if the masses are the same, and gravity will always be the same as long as we stay on earth, then the only thing that is changing here is the height. Since picture 3 is lower then 1 and 2 it has the least amount of GPE since its height is lower. Since picture 1 and 2 are at the same height they must have the same GPE as everything in the equation would be the same.

Hopefully this makes sense and helps!

The net horizontal force on a car is 981 N. The car has a mass of 1550 kg and the force is applied when the car has a speed of 2
viktelen [127]

Answer:

Distance, d = 778.05 m                          

Explanation:

Given that,

Force acting on the car, F = 981 N

Mass of the car, m = 1550 kg

Initial speed of the car, v = 25 mi/h = 11.17 m/s

We need to find the distance covered by car if the force continues to be applied to the car. Firstly, lets find the acceleration of the car:

F=ma\\\\a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{981}{1550}\\\\a=0.632\ m/s^2

Let d is the distance covered by car. Using second equation of motion as :

d=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\d=11.17\times 35+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.632\times (35)^2\\\\d=778.05\ m

So, the car will cover a distance of 778.05 meters.

HELPPPP I DONT HAVE ENOUGH WRITTEN <br> Describe the process of sea floor spreading.
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Seafloor spreading is a geologic process in which tectonic plates—large slabs of Earth's lithosphere—split apart from each other. ... As tectonic plates slowly move away from each other, heat from the mantle's convection currents makes the crust more plastic and less dense

The bear is white in color because it is a polar bear.

<h3>What are the color of bears?</h3>

Bears are very large carnivorous animals found around the cold regions of the Arctic or North Pole.

The color of bears, may be brown, black or white depending on how far North the bears are found.

Bears found close to the Arctic or North pole are white polar bears.

Based on the description of the house, every side of the home faces South meaning that the individual lives in the North pole.

Therefore, the color of the bear will be white.

in conclusion, polar bears are white in color.
