Mechanical energy (ME) is the sum of potential energy (PE) and kinetic energy (KE). When the toy falls, energy is converted from PE to KE, but by conservation of energy, ME (and therefore PE+KE) will remain the same.

Therefore, ME at 0.500 m is the same as ME at 0.830 m (the starting point). It's easier to calculate ME at the starting point because its just PE we need to worry about (but if we wanted to we could calculate the instantaneous PE and KE at 0.500 m too and add them to get the same answer).

At the start:

ME = PE = mgh
ME = 0.900 (9.8) (0.830)
ME = 7.32 J

No. 
The acceleration of gravity on or near Earth's surface is 9.8 m/s² ,
not 20 m/s² .

If it were 20 m/s², then you would weigh almost exactly double
what you really weigh now.

What is the relationship between the size of a predator population and the size of a prey population
Contact [7]
<span>Let's put it this way. Say you have a killer-whale and a penguin. Killer-whales are major predators to penguins. Now, say the killer-whale population increases. The penguins would be eaten more by the killer-whales, then causing a population decrease for the penguins. If the population decreases, they're won't be enough penguins, and they most likely will become extinct, as well as causing a population decrease for the killer-whales as well. Whereas, vis versa, they're were a killer-whale population decrease. The penguins would be less hunted, therefore, creating a population increase for the penguins.</span>

Is static electricity more harmful than it is helpful or vice versa
Deffense [45]

Answer:

You might even see a spark if the discharge of electrons is large enough. The good news is that static electricity can't seriously harm you. Your body is composed largely of water and water is an inefficient conductor of electricity, especially in amounts this small. Not that electricity can't hurt or kill you.
