Correct answer choice is :
C) The freezing and melting temperatures of a substance are the same.
Explanation:
Fluids have a particular temperature at which they convert into solids, identified as their freezing point. In theory, the melting point of a solid should be the same as the freezing point of the liquid. In practice, small variations among these measures can be seen. The freezing point of a matter is the same as that substance's melting point. At this distinct temperature, the substance can exist as either a solid or a liquid. At temperatures below the freezing/ melting point, the substance is a solid.
Answer:
11760 joules
Explanation:
Given
Mass (m) = 75kg
Height (h) = 16m
Required
Determine the increment in potential energy (PE)
This is calculated as thus:
PE = mgh
Where g = 9.8m/s²
Substitute values for m, g and h.
P.E = 75 * 9.8 * 16
P.E = 11760 joules
