Here are the solutions to the physics problems:

Question 13: Calculate the potential energy of the horse while standing on the hill.

Step 1: Identify the given values. Mass of horse, m=100 kgm = 100 \text{ kg} Height of hill, h=1.3 mh = 1.3 \text{ m} Acceleration due to gravity, g=10m/s2g = 10 m/s^2

Step 2: Use the formula for potential energy (PEPE). PE=mghPE = mgh

Step 3: Substitute the values and calculate. PE=(100kg)×(10m/s2)×(1.3m)PE = (100 kg) \times (10 m/s^2) \times (1.3 m) PE=1000×1.3 JPE = 1000 \times 1.3 \text{ J} PE=1300 JPE = 1300 \text{ J}

The potential energy is 1300J\boxed{1300 J}.

Question 14: Calculate the kinetic energy used to run down the hill.

Step 1: Identify the given values. Mass of horse, m=100 kgm = 100 \text{ kg} Speed of horse, v=5.0 m/sv = 5.0 \text{ m/s}

Step 2: Use the formula for kinetic energy (KEKE). KE=12mv2KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

Step 3: Substitute the values and calculate. KE=12×(100kg)×(5.0m/s)2KE = \frac{1}{2} \times (100 kg) \times (5.0 m/s)^2 KE=12×100kg×25m2/s2KE = \frac{1}{2} \times 100 kg \times 25 m^2/s^2 KE=50×25 JKE = 50 \times 25 \text{ J} KE=1250 JKE = 1250 \text{ J}

The kinetic energy is 1250J\boxed{1250 J}.
