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
I see I'm late but I believe it's A. , opposites attract. I'm taking the test right now lol
Answer:
1.85 J/K
Explanation:
The computation of total change in entropy is shown below:-
Change in Entropy = Sum Q ÷ T
= 
= -3.12 + 4.97
= 1.85 J/K
Therefore for computing the total change in entropy we simply applied the above formula.
As we can see that there is heat entering the reservoir so it will be negative while cold reservoir will be positive else the process would be impossible.
Answer:
Explanation:
Let the sphere is uniformly charge to radius "r" and due to this charged sphere the electric potential on its surface is given as
now we can say that
now electric potential is given as
now work done to bring a small charge from infinite to the surface of this sphere is given as
here we know that
now the total energy of the sphere is given as
