Answer:

Explanation:

this because

gravitational potential energy = mass x height x gravitational field strength

so let's assume mass is 2 kg and gravitational field strength is 10 N /kg

so when height is very low, take it as 3 m

gravitational potential energy= 2 x 3 x 10 = 60 j

but when height is 6m

gravitational potential energy = 2 x 6 x 10 = 120 j

so when the height is the greatest, the gravitational potential energy is the highest

so A is the heighest so it has the highest gravitational potential energy.

hope this helps

please mark it brainliest :D

Two people are talking at a distance of 3.0 m from where you are and you measure the sound intensity as 1.1 × 10-7 W/m2. Another

ioda

Answer:

$6.1875\times 10^{-8}$

Explanation:

Assuming uniform spread of sound with no significant reflections or absorption. We know that sound intensity varies $I=\frac {k}{r^{2}}$ where r is the distance

Since intensity is given then when at 3 m

$1.1\times 10^{-7}= \frac {k}{3^{2}}$

$k=3^{2}\times 1.1\times 10^{-7}= 9.9\times 10^{-7}$

Since we have the constant then at 4m

Intensity, $I= \frac {9.9\times 10^{-7}}{4^{2}}=6.1875\times 10^{-8}$

How would you distinguish a scientific theory from a scientific law?

lord [1]

In general, a scientific law is the description of an observed phenomenon. It doesn't explain why the phenomenon exists or what causes it. The explanation of a phenomenon is called a scientific theory. It is a misconception that theories turn into laws with enough research.

Assume that the system has zero gravitational potential energy at the lowest point of the motion. Derive an expression for the t

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

From what I can see in the question, there is a monkey of mass m suspened at the end of a spring which constant is k and this monkey has moved a distance d.

The mechanical energy for the situation will be composed of elastic potential energy from the spring, kinetic energy from the monkey and potential gravitational energy from the monkey as well.

$E = K_{monkey} + U_{monkey} + U_{spring}\\E= \frac{mv_{e}^2}{2} + mgd + \frac{kx^2}{2}$

where m is the monkey's mass, $v_{e}$ is the speed of the monkey, d is the distance that the monkey has moved, k is the spring constant and x is the distance that the spring has stretched
