How does height affects the potential energy of a body?<br>​
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

The higher the height above the more PE (Potential Energy), the body posses as seen in the formula PE = mass*gravity*height. m and g are constant hence only h affect PE

Explanation:

Potential Energy (PE) is the energy the body posses by virtue of its vertical height above the ground because, once the body is released, it will release or create some energy eg hydroelectricity power generation or a car going downhill does not need to be accelerated by the driver since it can roll over on its own due to PE

Ian walks 2 km to his best friends house, then walks 0.5 km to the library. He then makes 2.5 km walk home. The entire walk took
allochka39001 [22]
1. 2+0.5+2.5= 3. 2km/hr average




2. 14-6=4seconds. 8m/s in 4s = 2m/s acceleration


3. 15m/s divided by 2.5 = 6m/s acceleration

During an observation, it was noticed that light diffracts as it passes through small slits in a barrier. What does this evidenc
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

It reveals that light is a wave

Explanation:

Diffraction is the property of a wave in which there is a bending of the wave about the corners of an obstacle or aperture into the geometrical shadow of the obstacle or aperture.

This simply implies that a wave bends or spreads out when it passes through openings. Since the light diffracts through small slits and diffraction has been shown to occur in water waves and sound waves, this property of diffraction can only be characteristic of a wave and thus, this evidence reveals that light is a wave.

Your teacher wants you to perform an experiment that will demonstrate a chemical property. Which experiment should you choose? A
Dovator [93]

A) Measure the pH of different household chemicals

Explanation:

To demonstrate a chemical property using an experiment, measuring the pH of different household chemicals will be the best way. The pH is the degree of hydrogen or hydroxyl ion concentration in a solution.

  • Chemical properties tell us about what a substance can do.
  • It shows if a substance will react with other substances or not.
  • Examples are flammability, rusting of iron, precipitation, decomposition of water by electric current e.t.c.
  • Measuring the pH is a chemical property determination procedure.
  • The pH points to the degree of acidity or alkalinity of a solution.
