Answer:  

A person walks up a flight of stairs.

Wind lifts a balloon into the air.

A weightlifter holds a barbell straight overhead

Explanation:

<u>Gravitational potential energy is possessed by a body due to virtue of its position (height). </u>

A body placed some height above the ground possesses gravitational potential energy which is equal to the work done to lift it.

Thus, a person who walks up a flight of stairs, a weightlifter holding barbell straight overhead and wind lifting balloon into the air have gravitational potential energy.

It is 2058 and you are taking your grandchildren to Mars. At an elevation of 34.7 km above the surface of Mars, your spacecraft
Paul [167]

Answer: 1.23\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given

At an elevation of y=34.7\ km, spacecraft is dropping vertically at a speed of u=293\ m/s

Final velocity of the spacecraft is v=0

using equation of motion i.e. v^2-u^2=2as

Insert the values

\Rightarrow 0-(293)^2=2\times a\times (34.7\times 10^3)\\\\\Rightarrow a=-\dfrac{293^2}{2\times 34.7\times 10^3}\\\\\Rightarrow a=-1.23\ m/s^2

Therefore, magnitude of acceleration is 1.23\ m/s^2.

Now she is out on a hike and comes to the left bank of a river. There is no bridge and the right bank is 10.0 mm away horizontal
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

a. 8.96 m/s b. 1.81 m

Explanation:

Here is the complete question.

a) A long jumper leaves the ground at 45° above the horizontal and lands 8.2 m away.

What is her "takeoff" speed  v 0 ?

b) Now she is out on a hike and comes to the left bank of a river. There is no bridge and the right bank is 10.0 m away horizontally and 2.5 m, vertically below.  

If she long jumps from the edge of the left bank at 45° with the speed calculated in part a), how long, or short, of the opposite bank will she land?

a. Since she lands 8.2 m away and leaves at an angle of 45 above the horizontal, this is a case of projectile motion. We calculate the takeoff speed v₀ from R = v₀²sin2θ/g. where R = range = 8.2 m.

So, v₀ = √gR/sin2θ = √9.8 × 8.2/sin(2×45) = √80.36/sin90 = √80.36 = 8.96 m/s.

b. We use R = v₀²sin2θ/g to calculate how long or short of the opposite bank she will land. With v₀ = 8.96 m/s and θ = 45

R = 8.96²sin(2 × 45)/9.8 = 80.2816/9.8 = 8.192 m.

So she land 8.192 m away from her bank. The distance away from the opposite bank she lands is 10 - 8.192 m = 1.808 m ≅ 1.81 m
