Things that stretch or compress store elastic potential energy
Answer:
In the water cycle, evaporation occurs when sunlight warms the surface of the water. The heat from the sun makes the water molecules move faster and faster, until they move so fast they escape as a gas. Once evaporated, a molecule of water vapor spends about ten days in the air.

Explanation:
Given parameters:
Height = 5m
Mass of Sue = 50kg
Unknown:
Magnitude of Sue's weight = ?
Work done by Sue = ?
Solution:
Weight is the vertical force exerted by a body in the presence of gravity.
Mathematically;
W = mg
m is the mass
g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²
Weight = 50 x 9.8 = 490N
Work done = Force x distance = weight x height
Work done = 490 x 5 = 2450J
The answer is visible light. Most of the solar radiation that reaches the Earth is made up of visible and infrared light. Only a small amount of ultraviolet radiation reaches the surface of the earth. Ordinary sunlight or solar radiation is broken into visible light (0.4 nm - 0.8 nm), ultraviolet light ( 0.4 nm) and the infrared radiation (0.8 nm). The visible light makes up almost half of the total radiation reaching the surface of the Earth.
