baherus [9]3 years ago

Answer:

The increase in gravitational potential energy is the same in both cases

Explanation:

It is easier to climb a mountain in a zigzag way rather than climbing on a straight line but since the distance is the same ( vertical height ) , mass and gravity is the same. Hence the increase in gravitational potential energy is the same in both cases.

gravitational potential energy = mgh ( same in both cases )

m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = distance ( vertical height )

topjm [15]

Explanation:

u=166m/s, v=0(at it's highest point final velocity is zero), a=9.8m/s², t=8.6s

by the formula, S=ut+½at².

S=[166×8.6+½.×9.8×(8.6)²]. ...by calculation

S = 1427.6+362.404

S=1790.004m

hope this helps you.
