Doubling an object’s height will have what effect on its potential energy due to gravity?

Physics

Answer:

doubled

Explanation:

The energy possessed by the virtue of position or configuration of the body is called potential energy of the body.

The formula for the potential energy is given by

P.E = m g h

Where, m be the mass of the body, g be the acceleration due to gravity and h be the height.

So, if the height is doubled, the potential energy is also doubled.

Potential energy due to gravity = Ep = mgh [symbols have their usual meaning ]
Evidently, HALVING the mass will make Ep , HALF its previous value. So, It will be halved.

What do you measure when you measure an object’s mass?
Effectus [21]

Answer:

how much space it takes up in the world

Explanation:

1) Mass is a measurement of the amount of matter something contains, while Weight is the measurement of the pull of gravity on an object. 2) Mass is measured by using a balance comparing a known amount of matter to an unknown amount of matter. Weight is measured on a scale.

State the methods of nuclear fission waste disposal and the suitability of each method.
Alexeev081 [22]
<span>Most low-level radioactive waste (LLW) is typically sent to land-based disposal immediately following its packaging for long-term management. This means that for the majority (~90% by volume) of all of the waste types produced by nuclear technologies, a satisfactory disposal means has been developed and is being implemented around the world.
</span>

Radioactive wastes are stored so as to avoid any chance of radiation exposure to people, or any pollution.The radioactivity of the wastes decays with time, providing a strong incentive to store high-level waste for about 50 years before disposal.Disposal of low-level waste is straightforward and can be undertaken safely almost anywhere.Storage of used fuel is normally under water for at least five years and then often in dry storage.<span>Deep geological disposal is widely agreed to be the best solution for final disposal of the most radioactive waste produced.

Which condition is necessary for total internal reflection? A. The refracted ray should lie along the boundary of the two media.
g100num [7]

There are two conditions necessary for total internal reflection, which is when light hits the boundary between two mediums and reflects back into its original medium:

Light is about to pass from a more optically dense medium (slower) to a less optically dense medium (faster).

The angle of incidence is greater than the defined critical angle for the two mediums, which is given by:

θ = sin⁻¹(n_{fast}/n_{slow})

Where θ = critical angle, n_{fast} = refractive index of faster medium, n_{slow} = refractive index of slower medium.

Choice C gives one of the above necessary conditions.
