Potential energy can be calculated using the following rule:
potential energy = mgh where:
m is the mass = 85 kg
g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/sec^2
h is the height = 4 km = 4000 meters
Substitute in the above equation to get the potential energy as follows:
Potential energy = 85*9.8*4000 = 3332000 joules
Answer
given,
mass of glider = 0.23 Kg
spring constant = k = 4.50 N/m
spring stretched to 0.130 m
The springs potential energy =


U = 0.038 J
at x = 0,the only energy will be kinetic .


v² = 0.3304
v = 0.575 m/s
displacement of the glider
using conservation of energy



x = 0.678 m
Well, as the waves move it moves the rope as if its trying to take shape of it. Since the rope it light it will move along the ocean and the ocean will keep pushing up on the rope. (even without the waves the water is pushing the rope up so it can take its shape)
Maybe that'll help
Answer: 18.27°
Explanation:
Given
Index of refraction of blue light, n(b) = 1.64
Wavelength of blue light, λ(b) = 440 nm
Index of refraction of red light, n(r) = 1.595
Wavelength of red light, λ(r) = 670 nm
Angle of incident, θ = 30°
Angle of refraction of red light is
θ(r) = sin^-1 [(n(a)* sin θ) / n(r)], where n(a) = index of refraction of air = 1
So that,
θ(r) = sin^-1 [(1 * sin 30) / 1.595]
θ(r) = sin^-1 (0.5 / 1.595)
θ(r) = sin^-1 0.3135
θ(r) = 18.27°
