Answer:

Hi there!

Your answer is D. Halfway up the peak

Explanation:

Think of potential energy like you are a marble. If a marble is at the peak of the hill, it's potential energy is ENORMOUS because as gravity pulls it downward it will increase in speed. Halfways down the peak is about the same potential energy as the peak, although slightly less. At the end of the climb, we can assume the landscape flattens out. This means there's very little pull to make it change at all. It will continue with the speed gained from the downhill trajectory until something in its environment stops it (such as friction). When a marble is at the bottom of a large hill, the potential energy is low. It takes a lot of force to try and get up the hill, losing lots of energy

I hope this makes sense!

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy = mgh, where m is the mass of the mountain climber, g is the gravitational force and h is the height from the base.

Since m and g are constants, the climber's potential energy will be the lowest when he's at the end of the climb, at the base of the mountain. (B)

In a small cramped kitchen, you and some friends are preparing a spaghetti dinner. the water is boiling and the pasta is now ready to be carried to the sink to drain. you pick up the pot of bubbling pasta water and start in the direction of the sink. the pot holder slips slightly, causing the water to splash onto your arm. the scalding water burns your forearm. you are experiencing a lot of pain, with a red, blistering burn on your arm.

The appropriate first response will be to cool the affected arm under running water and application of ice pack. The cold temperatures will lower the pain that is being felt.
