Answer:

 P.E = 82320 joules

Explanation:

Given,

The mass of the squirrel, m = 700 Kg

The squirrel leaped to a height, h = 12 m

The acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

The potential energy of a body is possessed by its height. It is given by the formula

                               P.E = mgh   joules

Substituting the values in the above equation

                               P.E = 700 Kg x 9.8 m/s² x 12 m

                                     = 82320 joules

The Potential Energy of the squirrel is, P.E = 82320 joules

it took 3.5 hours for a train to travel the distance between two cities at a velocity of 120 miles per hour. How many miles lie
Art [367]

Given:

Time: 3.5 hrs

Velocity: 120 miles/hr

Now Distance=  Speed × Time

Now Velocity and speed have the same magnitude. Velocity being a vector quantity has a definite direction. Whereas speed is a scalar quantity,it indicates only the magnitude an doesn't define any direction.

Hence Distance = Velocity x time

Distance = 3.5 × 120 = 420 miles

Where is the magnetic south pole compared to the geographical north pole?
Alex777 [14]

Currently, the magnetic south pole lies about ten degrees distant from the geographic north pole, and sits in the Arctic Ocean north of Alaska. The north end on a compass therefore currently points roughly towards Alaska and not exactly towards geographic north.

State the methods of nuclear fission waste disposal and the suitability of each method.
Alexeev081 [22]
<span>Most low-level radioactive waste (LLW) is typically sent to land-based disposal immediately following its packaging for long-term management. This means that for the majority (~90% by volume) of all of the waste types produced by nuclear technologies, a satisfactory disposal means has been developed and is being implemented around the world.
</span>

Radioactive wastes are stored so as to avoid any chance of radiation exposure to people, or any pollution.The radioactivity of the wastes decays with time, providing a strong incentive to store high-level waste for about 50 years before disposal.Disposal of low-level waste is straightforward and can be undertaken safely almost anywhere.Storage of used fuel is normally under water for at least five years and then often in dry storage.<span>Deep geological disposal is widely agreed to be the best solution for final disposal of the most radioactive waste produced.
