Answer:

The Energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position or state is called Potential energy.

Mathematically potential energy can be written as,

Potential energy = mgh

Where 'm' represents mass of the body, 'g' represents gravity of the earth and 'h' represents height of body. Potential energy depends on the height, higher the hight from the surface of the earth, maximum will be the potential energy.

The Moon is responsible for what % of the tides that we experience?
Ivenika [448]

Answer: High tides and low tides are caused by the Moon. The Moon's gravitational pull generates something called the tidal force. The tidal force causes Earth—and its water—to bulge out on the side closest to the Moon and the side farthest from the Moon. These bulges of water are high tides.

The average radius of Mars is 3,397 km. If Mars completes one rotation in 24.6 hours, what is the tangential speed of objects on
sammy [17]

Answer: First, we determine the circumference of the Mars by the equation below.  

                                     C = 2πr

Substituting the known values,

                                     C = 2(π)(3,397 km) = 6794π km

To determine the tangential speed, we divide the circumference calculated above by the time it takes for Mars to complete one rotation and that is,

                   tangential speed = 6794π km / 24.6 hours = 867.64 km/h

How is thermal equilibrium reached? Question 3 options: When both objects have the same temperature When objects have the same m
ollegr [7]

In the thermal equilibrium, the change in temperature is said to be zero in between the bodies. Thermal equilibrium is reached when both objects have the same temperature.

<h3>What is thermal equilibrium?</h3>

Thermal equilibrium is easily explained by the zeroth law of thermodynamics. If any two-body is at thermal equilibrium there is no change in the temperature of the body.

According to zeroth law if body A is in thermal equilibrium with body B and body B is in thermal equilibrium with C . So body A and C are also in thermal equilibrium.

In the thermal equilibrium, the net heat transfer is said to be zero in between the bodies.

Hence option A IS RIGHT. Thermal equilibrium is reached when both objects have the same temperature

To learn more about the thermal equilibrium refer to the link;
