Answer:

This question is incomplete, the options are:

A) The object absorbs most white light and refracts most green light.

B) The object refracts most white light and absorbs most green light.

C) More green light is absorbed while more red and blue light is reflected.

D) More green light is reflected while more red and blue light is absorbed.

The answer is D.

Explanation:

Light is an electromagnetic wave that contains different colours at different wavelength. The colour of light that is seen depends on the wavelength of light that is REFLECTED, while other wavelengths of light are ABSORBED. This feature is dependent on the properties of each object that received the sunlight.

For example, an object will appear GREEN because it has properties that enables it to REFLECT most of the GREEN LIGHT but absorbs most of the RED AND BLUE LIGHT in the sunlight passing through the object.

If the hiker starts climbing at an elevation of 350 ft, what will their change in gravitational potential energy be, in joules,
Kitty [74]

Answer:

352,088.37888Joules

Explanation:

Complete question;

A hiker of mass 53 kg is going to climb a mountain with elevation 2,574 ft.

A) If the hiker starts climbing at an elevation of 350 ft., what will their change in gravitational potential energy be, in joules, once they reach the top? (Assume the zero of gravitational potential is at sea level)

Chane in potential energy is expressed as;

ΔGPH = mgΔH

m is the mass of the hiker

g is the acceleration due to gravity;

ΔH is the change in height

Given

m = 53kg

g = 9.8m/s²

ΔH = 2574-350 = 2224ft

since 1ft = 0.3048m

2224ft = (2224*0.3048)m = 677.8752m

Required

Gravitational potential energy

Substitute the values into the formula;

ΔGPH = mgΔH

ΔGPH = 53(9.8)(677.8752)

ΔGPH = 352,088.37888Joules

Hence the gravitational potential energy is 352,088.37888Joules
