Answer:

$potential \: energy = mgh \\ m = 783 \\ g = 10 \\ h = 164 \\ pe = 783 \times 10 \times 164 \\ = 7830 \times 164 \\ = 1284120 \: joule \\ thank \: you$

Explanation:

$\sf \: Mass \: of \: the \: body: 783\: kg$

$\sf \: Acceleration \: due \: to \: gravity : 10$

$\sf \: Height : 164 \: metres$

$\sf\longmapsto \: 783 \times 10 \times 164$

$\sf\longmapsto 7830 \times 164$

$\sf\longmapsto 1284120\:$

$\sf\longmapsto 1284120 \:Joule\:$

JulsSmile [24]

Choice - B is the correct one.

At the top of the arc, at one end of the swing:
-- it's not going to get any higher, so the potential energy is maximum
-- it stops moving for an instant, so the kinetic energy is zero

At the bottom of the arc, in the center of the swing:
-- it's not going to get any lower, so the potential energy is minimum
-- it's not going to move any faster, so the kinetic energy is maximum

A spearfisher stands in shallow water and sees a fish a few feet in front of her. She throws her spear directly toward the posit

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

the spear will end up above the fish relative to the actual position of the fish.

Explanation:

due to refraction of light coming from the fish the fish will appear slightly above from its real position

So due to this refraction the spearfisher will throw the spear directly at the image of the fish due to which it will not reach the position of fish but it will reach the position above the fish.

So here we can say that the spear will end up above the fish relative to the actual position of the fish

List five situations in which a lesser amount of friction would be beneficial. Overall, would a high or low coefficient of frict

Natalka [10]

Low coefficient of friction

1. flying a plane (friction between air and plane)
2. ice skating (friction between ice and skate blade)
3. swimming (water & skin)
4. rowing a boat (water and boat)
