Answer:

11760J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Height of hill  = 30m

Weight  = 40kg

Unknown:

Gravitational potential energy  = ?

Solution:

To find the gravitational potential energy, it is the energy due to the position of a body;

     G.PE  = mgh

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height

 Now insert the parameters and solve;

      G.PE = 40 x 9.8 x 30  = 11760J

While eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich peanut butter drips on Dana shirt she tries to remove the peanut butter from her
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

The water does not remove the peanut butter because the peanut butter is thicker substance than the water is, therefore it would not remove immediately.. It could also be because the brown dye or color in the peanut butter color or the peanut butter itself has already gone through her clothing Dana would have to remove it as much as she could with a towel water and some soap then throw it to the washer afterward.

Hope this helps, good luck:)

Use the fact that the speed of light in a vacuum is about 3.00 × 108 m/s to determine how many kilometers a pulse from a laser b
Morgarella [4.7K]
The first thing that needs to be done is to find everything in the same units.  12 hours becomes 43200 seconds.  Then find the distance traveled by light in that amount of time.  Using the formula v=d/s, manipulate it so it looks like d=v*s.  Then plug in the values: d=(3x10^8)*43200,  d=1.3x10^13m.  But you need to find this in kilometers.  To do this, simply divide your answer by one thousand.  Thus, a laser beam would travel 1.3x10^10 kilometers in 12 hours.
