Answer:

Point a

Explanation:

The potential energy of an object is given by :

P = mgh

m is mass, g is acceleration due to gravity, h is height above ground level.

Potential energy is directly proportional to the position of an object.

In the attached figure, the maximum height is shown at point (a). It means it will have maximum potential energy at a as compared to b,c and d.

a bird flies 25.0 m in the direction 55° east of south to its nest. the bird then flies 75.0 m in the direction 55° west of nort
son4ous [18]

The northward components of the resultant displacement is 40.96 m and the westward components of the resultant displacement of the bird from its nest is 28.68 m.

<h3>Displacement of the bird</h3>

The displacement of the bird is the change in the position of the bird.

<h3>Vertical component of the bird's displacement </h3>

Vy₁ = -25 m  x   sin(55)

Vy₁ = -20.48 m

Vy₂ = 75 m   x    sin(55)

Vy₂ = 61.44 m

Total vertical displacement = 61.44 m - 20.48 m = 40.96 m

<h3>Horizontal component of the bird's displacement </h3>

Vx₁ = -25 m  x   cos(55)

Vx₁ = -14.34 m

Vx₂ = 75 m   x    cos(55)

Vx₂ = 43.02 m

Total horizontal displacement = 43.02 m - 14.34 m = 28.68 m

Define neuron and nerve<br>cell​
san4es73 [151]

Answer: Hi!

A neuron is a basic working unit of the brain. Neurons are special cells designed to transfer information to other nerve, muscle, or gland cells. They are pretty cool - looking too! (A slightly irregular circular shape with branches reaching out from all sides.) A neuron is a nerve cell. Nerve cells are the way of communication in the nervous system.

Hope this helps!
