The mechanical energy of the girl will be conserved because the system is isolated and the initial potential energy will be equal to final kinetic energy.
<h3>
What is the law of conservation of energy?</h3>
The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another.
The change in the potential energy of the launched from a height into the pool without friction from the given height h is calculated by applying the following kinematic equation.
ΔP.E = ΔK.E
where;
- ΔP.E is change in potential energy of the child
- ΔK.E is change in the kinetic energy of the child
mghf - mghi = ¹/₂mv² - ¹/₂mu²
where;
- m is the mass of the girl
- g is acceleration due to gravity
- hi is the initial height of the girl
- hf is the final height when she is launched into the pool
- u is the initial velocity
- v is the final velocity of the girl
Thus, for every closed or isolated system such as this case, mechanical energy is always conserved because the initial potential energy of the girl will be converted into her final kinetic energy.

#SPJ1
1). Sequence from the Sun:
Inner planets:
Mercury
Venus
Earth
Mars
Outer planets:
Jupiter
Saturn
Uranus
Neptune
2). The farther a planet is from the sun, the longer it takes
to orbit the sun. Mercury ... 88 days. Earth ... 365 days.
Jupiter ... 12 years. Neptune ... 165 years.
3). Mercury & Venus ... no moons
Earth - 1
Mars - 2
Jupiter - more than 65
4). Mercury ... cratered, no atmosphere
Venus ... cratered, thick cloudy atmosphere
Mars ... dry, cratered, slight atmosphere, like 1% or Earth's
Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune
We can't see any surface. If any of them even
HAS a surface, it's thousands of miles under a
thick atmosphere of methane gas.
5). Missing from the list
6). Here's a list from the biggest planet to the smallest one.
The numbers in parentheses are the radius of the planet --
half of the diameter:
Jupiter (69,911 km / 43,441 miles) – 1,120% the size of Earth
Saturn (58,232 km / 36,184 miles) – 945% the size of Earth
Uranus (25,362 km / 15,759 miles) – 400% the size of Earth
Neptune (24,622 km / 15,299 miles) – 388% the size of Earth
Earth (6,371 km / 3,959 miles)
Venus (6,052 km / 3,761 miles) – 95% the size of Earth
Mars (3,390 km / 2,460 miles) – 53% the size of Earth
Mercury (2,440 km / 1,516 miles) – 38% the size of Earth
7). At least seven of the planets rotate in the same direction.
There's something different about one of them ... it may be Uranus
but I'm not sure. You'll have to look this up.
8). Saturn has the famous rings, that you can almost see
with only binoculars.
Spacecraft sent to observe the outer planets have detected
very thin rings around Uranus and Neptune.
9). Included in #6.
10). I don't have complete info. Generally, the closer the planet
is to the sun, the hotter it is. But there are a few exceptions.
I think Venus ... the second one from the sun, is actually hotter
than Mercury.
11). Just about every language has its own name for each planet.
12). "Terrestrial" means "like Earth" ("Terra").
The terrestrial planets are the ones that have solid surfaces
and are made of rock.
Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars.
13). "Jovian" means "like Jupiter".
Either no solid surface, or very small, inside a big deep gas ball.
Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune.
I think the answer is 2283g
