The point with the greatest potential energy is B.
The potential energy of an object is depends on the relative distance between the object and the ground and its mass. The higher the object is from the ground the greater the potential energy posses.
Potential energy (P.E) = mgh
Where m is the mass, g is the gravity and h is the height from the ground to where the object is.
Since the mass and gravity is constant in this case, only the height will determine the point with the greatest P.E and that point is B.
Answer:first of all what is your question and i can give and example which is Use them when you have 2 forces named Fa & FF or Fg & Ff acting in opposite directions on an object and you need to know the resultant of your 2 forces.

Answer:
t = 5.4 s
Explanation:
from the question we are given :
height (s) = 20 m
mass of paint (Mp) = 4 kg
mass of nails (Mn) = 3 kg
acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}
- The net force accelerating the can of paint should be equal to the difference in weight of the can of paint and the can of nails.
weight of nails = mass of nails x g = 3 x 9.8 = 29.4 N
weight of paint = mass nails x g = 4 x 9.8 = 39.2 N
net force = 39.2 - 29.4 = 9.8 N
- net force = total mass x acceleration
9.8 = (3 +4) x a
a = 1.4 m/s^{2}
- from S = Ut + 0.5at^{2} we can get the time the carpenter has to catch the nails
where U is the initial velocity and is 0 since the can was initially at
rest
20 = (0 x t) + (0.5 x 1.4 x t^{2})
20 = 0.7 x t^{2}
t^{2} = 28.6
t = 5.4 s
The tension in the rope B is determined as 10.9 N.
<h3>
Vertical angle of cable B</h3>
tanθ = (6 - 4)/(5 - 0)
tan θ = (2)/(5)
tan θ = 0.4
θ = arc tan(0.4) = 21.8 ⁰
<h3>Angle between B and C</h3>
θ = 21.8 ⁰ + 21.8 ⁰ = 43.6⁰
Apply cosine rule to determine the tension in rope B;
A² = B² + C² - 2BC(cos A)
B = C
A² = B² + B² - (2B²)(cos A)
A² = 2B² - 2B²(cos 43.6)
A² = 0.55B²
B² = A²/0.55
B² = 65.3/0.55
B² = 118.73
B = √(118.73)
B = 10.9 N
Thus, the tension in the rope B is determined as 10.9 N.
