Explanation:

Based on the references, the calculated potential energy is the same if the reference used is the same or different.

Potential energy is the energy due to the position of a body.

It is the energy at rest in body.

The change in potential energy is given as:

    ΔE  = E₂ - E₁

E₂ is the final potential energy and E₁ is the initial potential energy.

Since when the body comes to rest after falling through a height, the final potential energy is 0.

The change in potential energy does not depend on the reference.

Why do you expect the last color of the sunset to be on the red end of the visible spectrum?
Harlamova29_29 [7]

We expect the last colour of the sunset to be on the red end of the visible spectrum because of the dispersion of light.  Due to the particles present in the atmosphere, the light rays undergo scattering and the light of shorter wavelengths like blue gets dissipated but light rays of longer wavelengths travel long distances without getting dissipated.

Dispersion of light is the phenomenon in which the light from the sun is split into its constituent colours which are Violet, Indigo, Blue, Green, Yellow, Orange, and Red when it passes through a prism or due to the particles present in the earth's atmosphere.

7.<br> What is meant by independent<br> Independent behaviour of waves?
guapka [62]

Answer: Its Answered....Here it is

A wave  preserve its individuality while travelling through space.So when a Number of waves travel through a region at same time, each wave travels independently of the others i.e., as if all other waves were absent. That is why, with so many different musical instrument playing simultaneously in a full orchestra , we can still identify the note produced by an individual instrument. An important consequence of the independent behaviour of the Waves is the principle of superposition of waves.
