Explanation:
With most of our blue planet covered by water, it's little wonder that, centuries ago, the oceans were believed to hide mysterious creatures including sea serpents and mermaids. Merfolk (mermaids and mermen) are, of course, the marine version of half-human, half-animal legends that have captured human imagination for ages. One source, the "Arabian Nights," described mermaids as having "moon faces and hair like a woman's but their hands and feet were in their bellies and they had tails like fishes."
C.J.S. Thompson, a former curator at the Royal College of Surgeons of England, notes in his book "The Mystery and Lore of Monsters" that "Traditions concerning creatures half-human and half-fish in form have existed for thousands of years, and the Babylonian deity Era or Oannes, the Fish-god ... is usually depicted as having a bearded head with a crown and a body like a man, but from the waist downwards he has the shape of a fish." Greek mythology contains stories of the god Triton, the merman messenger of the sea, and several modern religions including Hinduism and Candomble (an Afro-Brazilian belief) worship mermaid goddesses to this day.
By definition, refractive index is the ratio of the velocity of light in vacuum to the velocity of light in a specified medium. The medium here is the liquid. The speed of light through the liquid also depends on the temperature and pressure. At sea level, the liquid is higher in temperature and pressure. So, the speed is gonna be relatively slower because of the movement of atoms. At high altitude, the liquid is at a lower temperature and pressure. The movements of the molecules are lesser, thus, light can move much faster. So, yes, it would be different. The refractive index would be closer to 1 at high altitude, and greater than 1 at sea level.

Answer:
196J
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of skateboard = 1kg
Height off the ground = 20m
Unknown:
Potential energy = ?
Solution:
The potential energy is the energy due to the position of a body above the ground.
It is mathematically expressed as:
Potential energy = mass x acceleration due gravity x height
Potential energy = 1 x 9.8 x 20 = 196J
