Answer: 98,000 J
Explanation: The total energy or mechanical energy is expressed in the following equation:
ME= PE + KE
PE = mgh
= 1000 kg x 9.8 m/s² x 10m
= 98000 J
ME = PE - KE
= 98000 J - 0 J
= 98000 J

Answer:
43.75 miles must a person walk to utilize the energy in (“burn”) a pound of fat.
Explanation:
3,500 calories are present in 1 pound of the fat.
Thus, given that:
<u>4 calories are burnt in 1 minute of walking.</u>
So,
1 calories are burnt in 1/4 minute of walking.
Or,
<u>1 calories are burnt in 0.25 minute of walking.</u>
Thus,
<u>3500 calories are burnt in 0.25*3500 minutes of walking</u>
Minutes of walking needed to burn 3500 calories = 875 minutes.
Also, given that:
<u>20 minutes of walking covers 1 mile.</u>
<u>1 minute of walking covers 1/20 mile.</u>
So,
<u>875 minutes of walking covers (1/20)*875 mile.</u>
<u>43.75 miles must a person walk to utilize the energy in (“burn”) a pound of fat.</u>
