Given:
m = 4 kg, the mass of the object
h = 5 m, distance fallen

Neglect air resistance.

The PE (potential energy) is 
PE = mgh = (4 kg)*(9.8 m/s²)*(5 m) = 196 J

The PE is converted into KE (kinetic energy) after the fall. 
Therefore the PE decreased by 196 J ≈ 200 J

Answer: d. It has decreased by 200 J

a skinny girl devours food that is equivalent to 600 kcal, as she is anorexic she repents and wants to lose twice as many calori
blondinia [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Work done in lifting the weight once = mgh

= 20 x 9.8 x (1.9+1.7)

= 705.6 J  

= 705.6 / 4.2 calorie

= 168 cals

Total energy to be spent = 600 x 10³ cals

No of times weight is required to be lifted

= 600 x 10³ / 168

= 3.57  x 10³ times

Total time to be taken = 2 x 3.57 x 10³

= 7.14 x 10³ s

=119 minutes .
