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 sound level at 1.0 m from a certain talking person talking is 60 dB. You are surrounded by five such people, all 1.0 m from
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

66.98 db

Explanation:

We know that

L_T=L_S+10log(n)

L_T= Total signal level in db

n= number of sources

L_S= signal level from signal source.

L_T=60+10 log(5)

= 66.98 db

According to Ohm's law what would happen if the current was increased and the resistance was held constant?
Whitepunk [10]
<span>Ohm's law deals with the relation between voltage and current in an ideal conductor. It states that: Potential difference across a conductor is proportional to the current that pass through it. It is expressed as V=IR. Therefore, the correct answer is option B, the voltage would increase as well.</span>

Most comets have short periods and orbit close to the ecliptic plane. (T/F)
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Most comets are located outside the solar system, in part of the cloud that originated from dust and gas that has remained virtually untouchable for billions of years. The orbit of these comets can reach the order of a light year. Thus, they are called long-period comets.
