A boulder with a weight of 780 N is resting at the edge of a cliff that rises 123 m above the ground. What is the gravitational

potential energy of the boulder?

Potential energy U = mgh

Given h = 123 m,
mg = F = 780 N

Then
U = (123)(780)
= 95940
= 9.59 x 10^4

Monochromatic light of wavelength λ=136.8μ m is shone at normal incidence through a thin film of thickness t resting atop a full

inn [45]

Answer:

1.8 × 10⁻⁸ Hm

Explanation:

Given that:

The refractive index of the film = 19

The wavelength of the light = 136.8 μ m

The thickness can be calculated by using the formula shown below as:

$Thickness=\frac {\lambda}{4\times n}$

Where, n is the refractive index of the film

${\lambda}$ is the wavelength

So, thickness is:

$Thickness=\frac {136.8\ \mu\ m}{4\times 19}$

Thickness = 1.8 μ m

Since,

1 μ m = 10⁻⁸ Hm

So,

Thickness = 1.8 × 10⁻⁸ Hm

Olin [163]

Answer:

You can change the momentum of an object by giving the object more force or less force.

Explanation:

Think about a ball. It is going slow, you push it and you give it more momentum.
