4 0
The potential energy of the skier at the top is
60 kg (9.81 m/s2) (10 m) = 5886 J

Her kinetic energy at the bottom is
(1/2) (60 kg) (10 m/s)^2 = 3000 J

The energy lost to friction is
5886 J - 3000 J = 2886 J

Heartburn is a form of indigestion felt as a burning sensation in the chest when stomach acid comes back up into the esophagus.
xenn [34]
The antacid is basic so it neutralizes acidity or lowers it. Then if it goes into the esophagus, it's not as strong and it doesn't hurt, and it also calms your stomach because the acidity in your stomach is also lower. Antacids are therefore taken by many people, especially as they grow older and things like heartburn become more common.
