Answer:

Potential energy

Kinetic energy

Gravitational energy.

Explanation:

The potential energy is the stored energy, it is the energy and object posses at rest. When the base jumper is still at rest i.e without motion, she has potential energy.

Gravitational energy this refer to the potential energy an object or body with mass posses in relation to another object due to gravity.

This is seen when the base number is still at rest and the force of gravity on the Earth acting on her.

Kinetic energy is the energy posses by an object or body in motion.

As the base jumper falls to the ground, she posses kinetic energy which is the energy in motion.

The escape speed from an object is v2 = 2GM/R, where M is the mass of the object, R is the object's starting radius, and G is th

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Approximate escape speed = 45.3 km/s

Explanation:

Escape speed

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}$

Here we have

Gravitational constant = G = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³ kg⁻¹ s⁻²

R = 1 AU = 1.496 × 10¹¹ m

M = 2.3 × 10³⁰ kg

Substituting

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 2.3\times 10^{30}}{1.496\times 10^{11}}}=4.53\times 10^4m/s=45.3km/s$

Approximate escape speed = 45.3 km/s

A loop of area 0.250 m^2 is in a uniform 0.020 0-T magnetic field. If the flux through the loop is 3.83 × 10-3T· m2, what angle

dangina [55]

Answer:

40.0⁰

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the magnetic flux is expressed as:

$\phi = BAcos\theta$ where:

$\phi$ is the magnetic flux

B is the magnetic field

A is the cross sectional area

$\theta$ is the angle that the normal to the plane of the loop make with the direction of the magnetic field.

Given

A = 0.250m²

B = 0.020T

$\phi$ = 3.83 × 10⁻³T· m²

3.83 × 10⁻³ = 0.020*0.250cosθ

3.83 × 10⁻³ = 0.005cosθ

cosθ = 0.00383/0.005

cosθ = 0.766

θ = cos⁻¹0.766

θ = 40.0⁰

Hence the angle normal to the plane of the loop make with the direction of the magnetic field is 40.0⁰
