An 85-kg refrigerator is located on the 70th floor of a skyscraper (4km above the ground ) what is the potential energy
Airida [17]
Potential energy can be calculated using the following rule:
potential energy = mgh where:
m is the mass = 85 kg
g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/sec^2
h is the height = 4 km = 4000 meters

Substitute in the above equation to get the potential energy as follows:
Potential energy = 85*9.8*4000 = 3332000 joules

Irina18 [472]

Answer:

A. Always true

Explanation:

This is because, the buoyancy force is always present whenever and object is placed in a fluid. The magnitude of this  buoyancy force is always equal to the weight of the fluid    displaced by the object according to Archimedes' principle. This principle is true irrespective of whether the object floats or not. When any object is inserted in a fluid, the buoyancy force is always present irrespective of whether it floats or not.
