Gate-control theory
<h3>What is Gate-control theory?</h3>
According to the Gate Control Theory of Pain, the spinal cord has a system that allows pain signals to be amplified in the brain before being processed at the spinal cord itself, or attenuated there.
The mechanism that allows or prevents the passage of pain signals is known as the gate. The gate may be open or it may be closed, one of two possibilities:
- When the gate is open, pain signals can enter and are delivered to the brain, where they are perceived as pain.
- If the gate is closed, pain signals will be prevented from ascending to the brain and won't be felt.
The administration of a non-noxious (soothing or light rubbing) stimulus can help engage the gate control mechanism and alleviate pain in those who are exposed to painful (noxious) stimuli.

Answer:
1703.24J
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of brick = 7.9kg
Height of building = 22m
Unknown:
Potential energy of the brick = ?
Solution:
The potential energy of a body is the energy at rest of the body. Mathematically;
P.E = mgh
m is the mass of the brick
g is the acceleration due to gravity
h is the height of the building
Insert the given parameters and solve;
P.E = 7.9 x 9.8 x 22 = 1703.24J
Speed of light
According to Einstein, the speed of light is constant in all points of reference. In addition, he pointed out the speed of light is the maximum speed known since in practice one can never catch up with the beam of light. This is explained by his theory of relativity.
It's definitely not B or C. There are things missing from A and D so we can't narrow it down any farther.
