F= ma
31-mg = m(-2.5m/s2)
31= mg-2.5 m
31 = m*(9.8m/s2 -2.5 m/s2)
31 = 7.3 m
m = 31/7.3
m = 4.25 kg

The probability that a battery will last 10 hr or more is 0.8, and the probability that it will last 15 hr or more is 0.11. Give
podryga [215]
We are given with the data that says the probability that a battery will last 10 hr or more is 0.8 and the probability <span>that it will last 15 hr or more is 0.11. In this case, the probability that the battery lasts at least 10 hours and even 15 hrs more is 0.11 / 0.8 or equal to 13.75 percent.</span>

Consider a system of an 85.0 kg man, his 14.5-kg dog, and the earth. The gravitational potential energy of the system increases
Andrew [12]

Answer:

Explanation:

Increase in gravitational potential energy = m x g x h

where m is mass , g is gravitational acceleration and h is height

In the first case when man climbs

increase in potential = 85 x g x h = 1.85 x 10³ J

gh = 21.7647

when dog climbs

increase in potential = 14.5 x g x h  J

= 14.5 x 21.7647

= 315.6 J
