Answer:

2. at the highest point

Explanation:

For a generic object, the PE (gravitational potential energy) is defined as

PE = mgh

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the gravitational acceleration

h is the height of the object with respect to the ground

From the formula, we see that PE is maximum when h is maximum: so the PE is maximum when the object is at the highest point.

Drinking water helps your body maintain
8090 [49]

Drinking water helps maintain nearly all processes of the human body and <em>homeostasis. </em>Further, drinking water helps,

  • Digestion
  • Absorption
  • Circulation
  • Saliva and mucus production
  • Thermoregulation/homeostasis
  • Lubrication of joints
  • Boosts integumentary health.
  • Helps in excretory systems
  • Prevents dehydration of cells
  • Reduces chance of hangover from alcoholic drinks.
  • etc,

Succinctly, it is VERY important to drink water! Water is the source of human life and without water, we cannot survive.

PLEASEE I NEED HELP FAST!!! .Study the scenario.A small container of water with a low temperature is poured into a large contain
RSB [31]

Answer:

that best describes the process is C

Explanation:

This problem is a calorimeter process where the heat given off by one body is equal to the heat absorbed by the other.

Heat absorbed by the smallest container

             Q_c = m ce (T_{f}-T₀)

Heat released by the largest container is

              Q_a = M ce (T_{i}-T_{f})

how

        Q_c = Q_a

       m (T_{f}-T₀) = M (T_{i} - T_{f})

Therefore, we see that the smaller container has less thermal energy and when placed in contact with the larger one, it absorbs part of the heat from it until the thermal energy of the two containers is the same.

Of the final statements, the one that best describes the process is C

since it talks about the thermal energy and the heat that is transferred in the process

Calculate the acceleration of a bus full speed changes from 6 miles to 12 miles over a period of three seconds
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

0.90m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial speed  = 6miles/hr

Final speed  = 12miles/hr

Time taken = 3 seconds

Unknown:

Acceleration = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time. It is mathematically given as:

         Acceleration  = \frac{Final speed - Initial speed}{Time}

We need to convert miles/hr to meters/seconds

Initial speed = 6 x \frac{miles }{hour} x \frac{1hr}{3600s}  x \frac{1609.34m}{1mile}

                      = 2.68m/s

Final speed = 12 x \frac{1609.34}{3600}  = 5.37m/s

      Acceleration  = \frac{5.37  - 2.68}{3}   = 0.90m/s²
