The potential energy is 4.10 J

Explanation:

The potential energy of a body is given by

U=mgh

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration of gravity

h is the height of the object relative to the ground

For the lemming in this problem we have

m = 0.078 kg is its mass

h = 5.36 m is the height above the ground

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

Solving the equation,

U=(0.078)(9.8)(5.36)=4.10 J

The dark bands on the wall are from ______________ interference. and i will give brainlyest
Fittoniya [83]
Light can be seen as an electromagnetic wave.
What happens when two waves, with the same frequency, superpose is called interference.

If at a certain point two waves arrive both with a crest, we have constructive interference and the amplitudes sum up, reaching the maximum value, resulting in bright spots.

If at a certain point one of the waves arrives with a crest and the other wave arrives with a trough, we have destructive interference, and the two amplitudes cancel out, resulting in dark spots.

Therefore, t<span>he dark bands on the wall are from destructive interference.</span>

Two cars cover the same distance in a straight line. Car A covers the distance at a constant velocity. Car B starts from rest an
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

a) 2.43 m/s

b) 4.83 m/s

c) 0.023 m/s²

Explanation:

a) Both cars cover a distance of 510 m in 210 s. Since car A has no acceleration

Speed = Distance / Time

\text{Speed}=\frac{510}{210}=2.43\ m/s

Velocity of car A is 2.43 m/s

t = Time taken = 210 seconds

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement = 510 m

a = Acceleration

c)

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 510=0\times 210+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times 210^2\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{510\times 2}{210^2}\\\Rightarrow a=0.023\ m/s^2

Acceleration of car B is 0.023 m/s²

b)

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=0+0.023\times 210\\\Rightarrow v=4.83\ m/s

Final velocity of car B is 4.83 m/s
