This is where we have to admit that gravitational potential energy is
one of those things that depends on the "frame of reference", or
'relative to what?'.
Potential energy = (mass) x (gravity) x (<em>height</em>).
So you have to specify <em><u>height above what</u></em> .
-- With respect to the ground, the ball has zero potential energy.
(If you let go of it, it will gain zero kinetic energy as it falls to
the ground.)
-- With respect to the floor in your basement, the potential energy is
(3) x (9.8) x (3 meters) = 88.2 joules.
(If you let go of it, it will gain 88.2 joules of kinetic energy as it falls
to the floor of your basement.)
-- With respect to the top of that 10-meter hill over there, the potential
energy is
(3) x (9.8) x (-10) = -294 joules
(Its potential energy is negative. After you let go of it, you have to give it
294 joules of energy that it doesn't have now, in order to lift it to the top of
the hill <em>where it will have zero</em> potential energy.)
Answer:
248
Explanation:
L = Inductance of the slinky = 130 μH = 130 x 10⁻⁶ H
= length of the slinky = 3 m
N = number of turns in the slinky
r = radius of slinky = 4 cm = 0.04 m
Area of slinky is given as
A = πr²
A = (3.14) (0.04)²
A = 0.005024 m²
Inductance is given as
N = 248
The type of pollution when small particles of soil are suspended in the water is called Suspended Matter Pollution. <span>This type of pollution happens when soil enter the water and do not mix in with the water molecules.</span>
This indicates that they are moving away from each other, meaning that they form a divergent plate boundary, between the two continental plates, the Eurasian Plate moving eastward, and the North American Plate moving west, this forms the Mid Atlantic Ridge.<span>

Answer: 100 N
Explanation:
F = ma = 0.5(200) = 100 N
