The energy that was lost due to air resistance while she was bouncing is determined as 3,360 J.

<h3>Conservation of energy</h3>

The amount of energy lost due to air resistance while she was bouncing is determined from the principle of conservation of energy.

ΔE = P.E - Ux

ΔE = mgh - ¹/₂kx²

ΔE = (50)(9.8)(16) - ¹/₂(35)(16)²

ΔE = 3,360 J

Thus, the energy that was lost due to air resistance while she was bouncing is determined as 3,360 J.

Answer:

The duration is $T =72 \ years /tex]Explanation:From the question we are told that The distance is [tex]D = 35 \ light-years = 35 * 9.46 *10^{15} = 3.311 *10^{17} \ m$

Generally the time it would take for the message to get the the other civilization is mathematically represented as

$t = \frac{D}{c}$

Here c is the speed of light with the value $c = 3.08 *10^{8} \ m/s$

=> $t = \frac{3.311 *10^{17} }{3.08 *10^{8}}$

=> $t = 1.075 *10^9 \ s$

converting to years

$t = 1.075 *10^9 * 3.17 *10^{-8}$

$t = 34 \ years$

Now the total time taken is mathematically represented as

$T = 2* t + 2 + 2$

=> $T = 2* 34 + 2 + 2$

=> [tex]T =72 \ years /tex]
