The total potential energy associated with the jumper at the end of his fall is 90,000 J.
The given parameters;
- <em>mass of the jumper, m = 51 kg</em>
- <em>height of the bridge. h = 321 m</em>
- <em>spring constant of the cord, k = 32 N/m</em>
- <em>extension of the cord, x = 179 m - 104 m = 75 m</em>
The total potential energy associated with the jumper at the end of his fall is calculated as follows;
U = ¹/₂kx² + mgΔh
where;
<em>Δh is the change in height after falling </em>
U = ¹/₂(32)(75)² + (51)(9.8)(0)
U = 90,000 J
Thus, the total potential energy associated with the jumper at the end of his fall is 90,000 J.

If it were possible to move a star towards the earth then its apparent magnitude number would decrease while its absolute magnitude number would stay the same.
Definition of apparent magnitude:
The luminosity of a celestial body (such as a star) as observed from the earth compare absolute magnitude.
So for example, the apparent magnitude of the Sun is -26.7 and is the brightest celestial object we can see from Earth. However, if the Sun were 10 parsecs away, its apparent magnitude would be +4.7, only about as bright as Ganymede appears to us on Earth.
Definition of absolute magnitude:
Absolute magnitude is a measure of the luminosity of a celestial object on an inverse logarithmic astronomical magnitude scale.
