We could use the change of pressure to calculate for the height climbed by the mountain hiker. The change of pressure is given by
p = rho * g * h, where p is the change of pressure, rho is the air density, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height.
Using the conversion 1 mbar = 100 Pa,
(930 - 780)(100) = (1.20)(9.80)h
15000 = 1.20*9.80*h
h = 1.28 km
Answer:
I would disagree with my friend because that according to Newton's first law, an object in motion will continue to be in motion until stopped by another object/force. If the object is already moving, it will stay in motion until something else stops it. There is no need for a force to be <em>continually</em> applied to it while it's already moving.
The answer is B, 1/4 of the cake
At the hightest point it would be potential energy, because the energy is stored and then when it is rocking back and forth it has kinetic energy
