<u>Answer</u>

672,000 Joules

<u>Explanation</u>

Gravitational potential energy (P.E) is the energy possessed by a body that is at a potential height from the ground.

IT is calculated by the formula;

P.E = mgh

Where m ⇒ mass

            g ⇒ acceleration due to gravity

            h ⇒ height from trhe ground.

P.E = 1200 × 1.6 × 350

      = 672,000 Joules.

when an object moves with constant velocity, does its average velocity during any time interval differ from its instataneous vel
BigorU [14]
For a constant-velocity object, the average and instantaneous are the same.  So the answer is no.  It's like taking a running average of a string of numbers that are all the same number.  The average is always the sum of the numbers divided by how many have accumulated, which will always equate to the repeated number.

What is the equivalent resistance if you connect three 10.0 Ω resistors in series?
Sonja [21]

Req = 30.0Ω.

When two or more resistors are in series, the intensity of current that passes through each of them is the same. Therefore, if you notice, you can observe that the three previous series resistors are equivalent to a single resistance whose value is the sum of each one.

Req = R1 + R2 + R3 = 10.0Ω + 10.0Ω + 10.0Ω = 30.0Ω
