Mechanical energy (ME) is the sum of potential energy (PE) and kinetic energy (KE). When the toy falls, energy is converted from PE to KE, but by conservation of energy, ME (and therefore PE+KE) will remain the same.
Therefore, ME at 0.500 m is the same as ME at 0.830 m (the starting point). It's easier to calculate ME at the starting point because its just PE we need to worry about (but if we wanted to we could calculate the instantaneous PE and KE at 0.500 m too and add them to get the same answer).
At the start:
ME = PE = mgh
ME = 0.900 (9.8) (0.830)
ME = 7.32 J

Answer:
Explanation:
If we assume there is a sharp boundary between the two masses of air, there will be a refraction. The refractive index of each medium will depend on the relative speeds of light.
n = c / v
If light travels faster in warmer air, it will have a lower refractive index
nh < nc
Snell's law of refraction relates angles of incidence and refracted with the indexes of refraction:
n1 * sin(θ1) = n2 * sin(θ2)
sin(θ2) = sin(θ1) * n1/n2
If blue light from the sky passing through the hot air will cross to the cold air, then
n1 = nh
n2 = nc
Then:
n1 < n2
So:
n1/n2 < 1
The refracted light will come into the cold air at angle θ2 wich will be smaller than θ1, so the light is bent upwards, creating the appearance of water in the distance, which is actually a mirror image of the sky.
Conservation law, also called law of conservation, in physics, several principles that state that certain physical properties (i.e., measurable quantities) do not change in the course of time within an isolated physical system
