Because potential energy has emphasis on potential, if the object is above ground it has a potential to fall or move. Therefore presenting energy within its movement.

Why is the cycle of cellular respiration and photosynthesis important to life for plants
devlian [24]
The cycle of cellular respiration and photosynthesis are important for the life of plants because cellular respiration uses one of the products of photosynthesis (oxygen), and uses it as one of the reactants along with glucose to produce carbon dioxide. These two cycles help maintain a balance for our atmosphere, even though pollution and other factors have disrupted this balance. Hope this helps! :)

a diver of mass 101 kg jumps upward off a diving board into water. Diving board is 6m above water. Diver has a speed of 1.2m/s.
8090 [49]
When the diver reaches maximum height, the upward velocity will be zero.

We shall use the formula
v^2 = u^2 - 2gh
where 
v = 0 (velocity at maximum height)
u = 1.2 m/s, intial upward velocity
g = -9.8 m/s^2, gravitational acceleration (downward)
h = maximum height attained above the diving board.

Therefore
0 = 1.2^2 - 2*9.8*h
h = 1.2^2/(2*9.8) = 0.0735 m

Answer: 0.074 m (nearest thousandth)

Light travels at a speed of close to 3 x 10^5 km/s in vacuum. Given that it takes light 8 min and 19 s to travel the distance fr
never [62]

Answer:

1497×10⁵ km

Explanation:

Speed of light in vacuum = 3×10⁵ km/s

Time taken by the light of the Sun to reach the Earth = 8 min and 19 s

Converting to seconds we get

8×60+19 = 499 seconds

Distance = Speed × Time

\text{Distance}=3\times 10^5\times 499\\\Rightarrow \text{Distance}=1497\times 10^5\ km

1 AU = 1497×10⁵ km

The Sun is 1497×10⁵ km from Earth
