Potential Energy
The potential energy gained is 43750 J
Explanation:
Potential energy is the energy by virtue of an object's position relative to the ground ie, the height of the other object.
For example, an object has more potential energy when it is on top of a two-story building than it does resting on the ground. That's because the object's relative position to the Earth gives it more energy.
Potential Energy is defined as
Potential energy = Mass * height
Given Mass M = 1250 N
Given height h = 35 m
So the potential energy = 1250 * 35 = 43750 J
Thus the potential energy is 43750 J
Explanation:
The Earth is comprised of many plates that float on the hot magma in the mantle layer. They are constantly moving but its so slow we can't feel it. A long time ago, all the land on Earth was connected in one big continent named Pangaea. As the plates have moved the land has separated forming the continents.
When plates come together they cause friction between them. This causes the plates to push up forming a mountain. This was how the Himalayan mountains were formed.
Answer:
Compression squeezes rocks together, causing rocks to fold or fracture (break) (figure 1). ... Rocks under tension lengthen or break apart. Tension is the major type of stress at divergent plate boundaries. When forces are parallel but moving in opposite directions, the stress is called shear
Explanation:
The answer is Galileo. He was a philosopher who believed that the moon was a land form.
