Explanation:
We will calculate the gravitational potential energy as follows.
= 
= 1164000 J
or, = 1164 kJ (as 1 kJ = 1000 J)
Now, we will calculate the change in potential energy as follows.
= 
= 
= -873000 J
or, = -873 kJ
Thus, we can conclude that change in gravitational potential energy is -873 kJ.
Answer: scientific law is the description of an observed phenomenon. It doesn't explain why the phenomenon exists or what causes it. The explanation of a phenomenon is called a scientific theory

Answer:
Work- Activity involving mental or physical effort done in order to achieve a purpose or result.
Explanation:
This was the first definition from the dictionary on google :)
Answer:
Unbalanced forces change the motion of an object. If an object is at rest and an unbalanced force pushes or pulls the object, it will move. Unbalanced forces can also change the speed or direction of an object that is already in motion.
As long as it sits on the shelf, its potential energy
relative to the floor is . . .
Potential energy = (mass) x (gravity) x (height) =
(3 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (0.8m) = <u>23.52 joules</u> .
If it falls from the shelf and lands on the floor, then it has exactly that
same amount of energy when it hits the floor, only now the 23.52 joules
has changed to kinetic energy.
Kinetic energy = (1/2) x (mass) x (speed)²
23.52 joules = (1/2) x (3 kg) x (speed)²
Divide each side by 1.5 kg : 23.52 m²/s² = speed²
Take the square root of each side: speed = √(23.52 m²/s²) = <em>4.85 m/s </em> (rounded)
