Why would an airplane flying at 10,000 meters above the ground have more gravitational potential

Answer:

The gravitational potential energy (gpe) possessed by an object or body is directly proportional to the height of the object or body.

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy (GPE) is an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position above the earth.

Mathematically, gravitational potential energy is given by the formula;

G.P.E = mgh

Where;

G.P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

Generally, the gravitational potential energy (gpe) of an object or body is directly proportional to the height of the object or body. Thus, the gravitational potential energy of a body increases as the height of the body increases.

In conclusion, an object with a higher height would have a higher gravitational potential energy.

The act of distributing land to an individual as salary, donation, present or reward is called birta. There was the Birta system during the Malla, Shah and Rana rule in the country.

Explanation:

Act: (a) "Birta land" means any kind of land obtained or possessed in such a way that the land is wholly exempt from the State Land Tax, or that the tax payable thereon is less than the tax imposed on Raikar land of similar type in the same place, and this term also includes any land as defined in Clauses

A wedge shaped air film is made between two sheets of glass using a spacer at one end of the glass sheets. If light of wavelengt
pychu [463]

Answer:

1178 nm

Explanation:

We are given that

Wavelength of light=\lambda=589nm=589\times 10^{-9} m

1nm=10^{-9} m

We have to find the thickness of spacer if five dark fringes are observed between the edges of the glass.

Suppose that first dark fringe and fifth dark fringe near spacer, then the path length of light is 4 times the wavelength of light.

The light passes through air film is two times  then the change in air film thickness  from one edge to other is two times the wavelength of light.

Change in air film thickness  from one edge to other edge  is same as the thickness of spacer.

Therefore, thickness of spacer=2\lambda

Thickness of spacer=2\times 589\times 10^{-9}m

Thickness of spacer=1178 nm

Hence, the thickness of spacer=1178 nm
