Answer: 300 m

Explanation:

A body possesses gravitational potential energy due to virtue of its height above the surface. It is measured in Joules. it is given by:

G.P.E = m g h

where, m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is the height.

Given: m = 85 kg

G.P.E = 250,000 J

g = 9.8 m/s²

⇒ h = (G.P.E}/ mg

⇒h = (250,000) / ( 85 × 9.8) = 300 m.

The climber climbed 300 m high.

Hey help me plzzzzz i will mark brainliest​
vodomira [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is given below.

Explanation:

Mechanical advantage (MA) = Load (L)/Effort (E)

MA = L/E

Velocity ratio (VR) = Distance moved by load (l) / Distance moved by effort (e)

VR = l/e

Efficiency = work done by machine (Wd) /work put into the machine (Wp) x 100

Efficiency = Wd/Wp x100

Recall:

Work = Force x distance

Therefore,

Work done by machine (wd) = load (L) x distance (l)

Wd = L x l

Work put into the machine (Wp) = effort (E) x distance (e)

Wp = E x e

Note: the load and effort are measured in Newton (N), while the distance is measured in metre (m)

Efficiency = Wd/Wp x100

Efficiency = (L x l) / (E x e) x 100

Rearrange

Efficiency = L/E ÷ l/e x 100

But:

MA = L/E

VR = l/e

Therefore,

Efficiency = L/E ÷ l/e x 100

Efficiency = MA ÷ VR x 100

Efficiency = MA / VR x 100

Photographs of many young stars show long jets of material apparently being ejected from their poles.
Rudiy27

Answer:

A) True

Explanation:

Researchers have detected numerous jets of gas ejected from poles of young stars and planetary nebulae.

By examining images of hydrogen molecules excited at infrared wavelengths, scientists have been able to see through the gas and dust in the Milky Way, in order to observe the most distant targets. These goals are normally hidden from view and many of them have never been seen before.

The entire study area covers approximately 1,450 times the size of the full moon, or the equivalent of an image of 95 gigapixels. The survey reveals jets emanating from proto-stars and planetary nebulas, as well as remnants of supernovae, the illuminated edges of vast clouds of gas and dust, and the warm regions that surround massive stars and their associated groups of smaller stars.
