Answer:

c. 1600J

Explanation:

The loss in potential energy of the boy is given by:

U=mg \Delta h

where

m = 40 kg is the mass of the boy

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

\Delta h = 4 m + 0.02 m = 4.02 m is the total change in the height of the boy (4 metres + 2 cm due to the compression of the spring)

Substituting, we find

\Delta U = (40 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(4.02 m) = 1577 J \sim 1600 J

Part A: Explain why x = 5 makes 4x − 1 ≤ 19 true but not 4x − 1 < 19. (5 points) Part B: What value from the set {6, 7, 8, 9,
Elis [28]

Answer:

A: ≤ means less than OR equal to. < only means less than

B: 9

Explanation:

A: Because it would equal 19, and 19 is EQUAL than 19. 4(5) - 1 would equal 19, which is equal to 19, and not less than. ≤ means less than or equal to. < means less than. So its not true.

B: 47 - 2, 45. Then 5 x 9 equals 45. So 5 x 9 equals 45, then add 2 would equal 47.

Hope this helps <3

Is this statement true or false? The next generation of nuclear power plants being built in California and South Africa are even
alexira [117]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Modern safer and cheaper nuclear reactors can not only meet the range of our long term energy demands, they can also fight global warming.

Modern techniques provide ways to reduce radioactive waste amount. "A closed fuel cycle may be switched on for new kinds of nuclear plants. Alternatively, the waste is chemically dissuaded to transform the reusable element into fuel. This implies that nuclear waste would not be buried.
