Answer:
U = 56877.4 J
Explanation:
The potential energy of a body is that which it possesses because it is located at a certain height above the surface of the earth and can be calculated using the following formula:
U = mgh Formula (1)
Where:
U is the potential energy in Joules (J)
m is the mass of the body in kilograms (kg)
g is the acceleration due to gravity (m/s²)
h is the height at which the body is found from the surface of the earth in meters (m)
Data
m= 81.4 kg
g= 9.8 m/s²
h = 71.3 m
Potential energy of Sean and the parachute at the top of the tower
We replace data in the formula (1)
U = m*g*h
U = (81.4 kg)*(9.8 m/s²)*(71.3 m)
U = 56877.4 N*m
U = 56877.4 J
A small boy is playing with a ball on a stationary train. If he places the ball on the floor of the train, when the train starts moving the ball moves toward the back of the train. This happened due to inertia
An object at rest remains at rest, or if in motion, remains in motion unless a net external force acts on it .
When a train starts moving forward, the ball placed on the floor tends to fall backward is an example of inertia of rest. Due to the reason that the lower part of the ball is in contact with the surface and rest of the part is not . As the train starts moving, its lower part gets the motion as the floor starts moving but the upper part will remain as it is as it is not in contact with the floor , hence do not attain any motion due to the inertia of rest simultaneously i.e. it tends to remain at the same place.

<span>This is best understood with Newtons Third Law of Motion: for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. That should allow you to see the answer.</span>
Answer:
With the exception of natural gas fossil fuel energies have seen an overall decrease since year 2000.
Explanation:
Just observe the graph
The Fossil fuels include-Petroleum ,coal and natural gases.
- The graph of these goes fastly up during 20th century but ,then it stabled at the peak then has not shown any solid increase .
- Observe other energy sources graph ,nuclear energy etc have shown quite speedy increase .
Option C is correct
