We know, Potential Energy = m * g * h
Here, mass & gravity would be same, but their height will change so it will be:

ΔU = U₂ - U₁
ΔU = mgh₂ - mgh₁
ΔU = mg (h₂ - h₁)

Hope this helps!

Approximately how long will it take light to travel to 1.7 AU in minutes? Use 3 × 108 m/s for the speed of light. unanswered
stich3 [128]

Answer:

14.1mins

Explanation:

We know that

Time =Distance/Speed

So

= 1.7 au/ (3 E8 m /s )

= 1.7 x 1.496 x 10^11 m /(3 x 10^8 m /s

Converting Au to meters (1.7 x 1.496 x 10^11 m)

= 847.7 s

=14.1 mins

A radioactive sample has a count rate of 10,000 Bq. 24 days later the activity has fallen to 625 Bq. What is the half-life of th
joja [24]

Answer:

10000 Bq / 625 Pq = 16

Radioactivity has decreased by a factor of 16

2^4 = 16

So the sample has gone thru 4 half-lives

24 da / 4 = 6 da

6 da is the half-life

Compare and contrast an earthquake and a tsunami.
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

An earthquake is a trembling movement of the earth's crust. These tremors are generally caused by shifts of the plates that make up the earth's surface. ... A tsunami (pronounced soo-NAHM-ee) is a series of huge waves that occur as the result of a violent underwater disturbance, such as an earthquake or volcanic eruption.
