Answer:
The mechanical energy of the helicopter is
.
Explanation:
It is given that,
Mass of the helicopter, m = 3250 kg
Speed of the helicopter, v = 56.9 m/s
Position of the helicopter, h = 185 m
The energy possessed by an object due to its motion is called its kinetic energy. It is given by :


The energy possessed by an object due to its position is called its potential energy. It is given by :


The sum of kinetic and potential energy is called mechanical energy of the system. It is given by :


or

So, the mechanical energy of the helicopter is
. Hence, this is the required solution.

40.64 cm is the answer to your question.
Answer:
Explanation:
refractive index of ember = sin of angle of incidence / sin of angle of refraction
= sin 35 / sin24
= .5735 / .4067
= 1.41
This is refractive index of ember with respect to water
refractive index of ember with respect to water
= wμe = μe / μw
μe = wμe x μw
= 1.33 x 1.41
= 1.87
refractive index of ember with respect to air = 1.87 .
