Letter D: The amount of sleep a student gets affects student achievement
Energy and Work have the same unit of measurement which is Joules in SI units.
Explanation:
- A Joule of Work is said to be done on an object when energy is transferred to that particular object.
- If two objects are involved, when one object transfers energy onto the second, a joule of work is said to be done by the first object.
- Work is also the application of force on an object over a distance. So Work = Force × Displacement
- Energy is neither created nor destroyed. It is in 2 forms - kinetic and potential.
- Kinetic energy is defined as the energy of a moving object while potential energy is known as the energy that is stored within an object.
- Kinetic Energy = 1/2 × mass × (velocity)²
- Potential Energy = mass × acceleration due to gravity × height
- Both energy and work are measured in Joules.

Given: Mass m = 60 Kg
Weight W = 96 N
Required: Acceleration due to gravity, g = ?
Formula: W = mg
g = W/g
g = 96 Kg.m/s²/60 Kg (note: this is the derive unit for Newton "N")
g = 1.6 m/s²
I am using the equation F=ma (force equals mass times acceleration) to solve these problems.
1. You are looking for force, and have mass and acceleration. You just plug in the values for mass and acceleration to get the force needed.
F=(15kg)(5m/s^2)
F=75N
2. Again, you are looking for force, and just need to plug in the values for mass and acceleration
F=(3kg)(2.4m/s^2)
F=7.2N
3. In this problem, you have force and mass, but need to find acceleration. To do this, you need to get acceleration alone on one side of the equation - divide each side by m. Your equation will now be F/m=a
a=(5N)/(3.7kg)
a=18.5m/s^2
I did not use significant figures. Let me know if you need to do that and need any help on that. Hope this helps!
