Answer:

A person climbs a set of stairs

Potential energy is said to be possessed by an object due to its position. As the height from the ground level increase, the potential energy increases. It is calculated by the below formula as :

P = mgh

Out of the given options, the option that illustrates an increase in potential energy is option (b) i.e. a person climbs a set of stairs. As he steps one stair, its position from ground increases. It means its potential energy increases.

Answer:

<u><em>1) if they are moving away from each other it will take 1.43 secs</em></u>

<u><em>2) if they are moving towards each other then it will take 1.11 secs</em></u>

Explanation:

Distance between them is 10 m

Speed  ( if they are moving towards each other)= distance/time

time = 10/8+1

time = distance / speed= 10/9=  1.11 secs

if they are moving away from each other than it will take

time = 10/8-1= 10/7= 1.43 secs

Why are isotopes not shown on the periodic table
Fofino [41]

Hey there!

The periodic table is arranged by number of protons/electrons which is the same for all isotopes of an element. <u>A different isotope will have a different number of neutrons only, which does not qualify it for a separate space on the periodic table.</u>

I hope this helps!
