Which three terms are needed to describe the energy a BASE jumper has as she falls toward the ground?

Physics
1 answer:
Thepotemich [5.8K]3 years ago
4 0

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.

Describe how refraction concentrates wave energy so that some parts of a beach erode more.
Zigmanuir [339]

Refraction is the bending of the waves which is result of the fact that different parts of the wave reach the water with different speeds because of the angle approaching the shore.

<span>The wave refraction disperses the wave energy in quiet water areas and sand is deposited.<span>  </span></span>

Three identical resistors are connected in parallel to a battery. If the current of 12. A flows from the battery, how much curre
Doss [256]

Answer:

4 A

Explanation:

We are given that

R_1=R_2=R_3=4\Omega

I=12 A

We have to find the current flowing through each resistor.

We know that in parallel combination current flowing through different resistors are different and potential difference across each resistor is same.

Formula :

\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_3}

Using the formula

\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{3}{4}

R=\frac{4}{3}\Omega

V=IR

Substitute the values

V=12\times \frac{4}{3}=16 V

I_1=\frac{V}{R_1}=\frac{16}{4}=4 A

I_1=I_2=I_3=4 A

Hence, current flows through any one of the resistors is 4 A.

8. How is the crystal size different for extrusive and intrusive igneous rocks?
eduard
<span>Igneous rocks which form by the crystallization of magma at a depth within the Earth are called intrusive rocks. Intrusive rocks are characterized by large crystal sizes, i.e., their visual appearance shows individual crystals interlocked together to form the rock mass.  hope that helped</span>
