Gravitational potential energy can be described as m*g*h (mass times gravity times height).
Originally,
15kg * 9.8m/s^2 *0.3 m = 44.1 kg*m^2/s^2 = 44.1 Joules.
After it is moved to a 1m shelf:
15kg * 9.8m/s * 1 = 147 kg*m^2/s^2= 147 Joules.
To find how much energy was added, we subtract final energy from initial energy:
147 J - 44.1 J = 102.9 Joules.
Answer:
Reflective
Explanation:
The radiation pressure of the wave that totally absorbed is given by;
and While the radiation pressure of the wave totally reflected is given by;
Now compare the two-equation you can clearly see that the pressure due to reflection is larger than absorption therefore the sail should be reflective.
The correct option is B.
The length of an object, the mass of an object and the rate of time passage for an object can change depending on the situation which the object is subject to. For instance in space, the mass and the velocity of an object usually change. But, the value of the speed of light in the space is the same for all observers regardless of the motion of an object, that is, the speed of light is a constant.<span />
Answer:
trigonometry (guessing)
Explanation:
ellipse: is the shape of an orbit : looks like an oval
periapsis : shortest distance between something like the moon and the planet its orbiting around like the earth
parallax is triangulation. like how gps works. looking at a star one day and then looking at it again 6 months later, an astronomer can see a difference in the viewing angle for the star. With trigonometry, the different angles yield a distance. This technique works for stars within about 400 light years of earth

By comparing the intrinsic brightness to the star's apparent brightness we can calculate the distance of stars
1/r^2 rule states that the apparent brightness of a light source is proportional to the square of its distance.Jan 11, 2022

alternative distance measurement for stars used by most astronomers is the parsec. A star with a parallax angle of 1 arcsecond has a distance of 1 parsec, or 1 parsec per arcsecond of parallax, which is about 3.26 light years
