The Newton’s law Nikolas would use to come up with this idea is the <span>Third law that states:
</span><span>When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body.
</span>
So, in this case, let's name the first Body A which is the skateboard and the second body B which is <span>the compressed carbon dioxide in a fire extinguisher. Then, as shown in the figure below, according to the Third law:
</span>

Answer:
PE = 44.1 J
Explanation:
Ok, to have the specific data, the first thing we must do is convert from grams to kilograms. Since mass must always be in kilograms (kg)
We have:
- 1 kilograms = 1000 grams.
We convert it using a rule of 3, replacing, simplifying units and solving:
==================================================================
Earth's gravity is known to be 9.8 m/s², so we have:
Data:
- m = 0.3 kg
- g = 9.8 m/s²
- h = 15 m
- PE = ?
Use formula of potencial energy:
Replace and solve:
Since the decimal number, that is, the number after the comma is less than 5, it cannot be rounded, then we have this result.
The potential energy of the volleyball is <u>44.1 Joules.</u>
