The correct answer to the question is : B) The weight of the water, and C) The height of the water.
EXPLANATION :
Before coming into any conclusion, first we have to understand potential energy of a body.
The potential energy of a body due to its position from ground is known as gravitational potential energy.
The gravitational potential energy is calculated as -
Potential energy P.E = mgh
Here, m is the mass of the body, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
h stands for the height of the body from the ground.
We know that weight of a body is equal to the product of mass with acceleration due to gravity.
Hence, weight W = mg
Hence, potential energy is written as P.E = weight × height.
Hence, potential energy depends on the weight and height of the water.
Answer:
Speed will be: 1.33ft/s
Explanation:
If ladder is 10 ft long and bottom is 8 ft from the wall then by Pythagoras theorem we can find the height of the wall where ladder touches. (before it started slipping)

thus 
Giving x= 6 ft. If the ladder is falling with a speed of 4ft/s it will take 1.5 seconds to cover the 6ft distance.
This shows that the bottom of ladder will travel from 8ft to 10 ft in 1.5 seconds. Thus covering 2 ft in 1.5 seconds making the speed to be:
v = S / t
v = 2 / 1.5
v = 1.33 ft/s
Answer:
T = 0.71 seconds
Explanation:
Given data:
mass m = 1Kg, spring constant K = 78 N/m, time period of oscillation T = 0.71 seconds.
We have to calculate time period when this same spring-mass system oscillates vertically.
As we know

This relation of time period is true under every orientation of the spring-mass system, whether horizontal, vertical, angled or inclined. Therefore, time period of the same spring-mass system oscillating vertically too remains the same.
Therefore, T = 0.71 seconds
Our solar system formed from a huge cloud of dust and gas called a
c. solar nebula
Based on the nebular hypothesis, our solar system formed from hydrogen gas and interstellar dust. The gas and the dust contracted and formed the early stage of the sun.
