<span>82.0 kg I am going to assume that there is a typo for the number of joules of energy. Doing a google search for this exact question showed this question multiple times with a value of 4942 joules which makes sense given how close the "o" key is to the "9" key. Because of this, I will assume that the correct value for the number of joules is 4942. With that in mind, here's the solution. The gravitational potential energy is expressed as the mass multiplied by the height, multiplied by the local gravitational acceleration. So: E = MHA Solving for M, the substituting the known values and calculating gives: E = MHA E/(HA) = M 4942/(6.15*9.8) = M 4942/60.27 = M 81.99767712 = M Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 82.0 kg</span>

Gravitational potential energy is given by 

 U=mgh

 where 

 m is the mass of the object 

 h is the height of the object above the ground (Earth's surface)

 g is the gravitational acceleration constant, 9.8ms2.

 For h=6.15m and U=4042J, we can rearrange to solve for m:

 m=U/gh

 m=(4042J)/((9.8m/s^2)*(6.15m))

 m=67.06 Kg

To balance a chemical equation we use______. <br> -coefficients <br> -subscripts
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

Coefficients

Explanation:

  • Coefficients are used to balance chemical equations.
  • According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the reactants in a chemical equation should be equivalent to the mass of the products.
  • The conservation of mass is achieved in chemical equations is achieved through balancing chemical equations.
  • <em><u>Balancing chemical equations is a try and error of putting appropriate coefficients to the reactants or products to ensure that the number of atoms of each element are equal on the side of the reactants and that of products. </u></em>

What is the density of a block with a mass of 36 g and a volume of 9 cm3?.
pshichka [43]
Density= how much mass is in a certain volume 
Therefore, you do (mass/volume).
density of the block is
36g/9cm3
or
4g/cm3
Meaning that there is 4 grams of mass in each cm3.

Which of the following EM waves do not kill cells?<br> Radio waves<br> UV light<br> Xrays<br> Gamma
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

The answer is below!!

Explanation:

Gamma-rays

Gamma-rays have the smallest wavelengths and the most energy of any other wave in the electromagnetic spectrum. These waves are generated by radioactive atoms and in nuclear explosions. Gamma-rays can kill living cells, a fact which medicine uses to its advantage, using gamma-rays to kill cancerous cells.

Hope I Helped!!!
