Answer:84.672 joules.

Explanation:

1) Data:

m = 7.2 kg
h = 1.2 m
g = 9.8 m / s²

2) Physical principle

Using the law of mechanical energy conservation principle, you have that the kinetic energy of the dog, when it jumps, must be equal to the final gravitational potential energy.

3) Calculations:

The gravitational potential energy, PE, is equal to m × g × h

So, PE = m × g × h = 7.2 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 1.2 m = 84.672 joules.

And that is the kinetic energy that the dog needs.

Answer:

C) rift valley

Explanation:

A rift valley is a lowland region formed by the interaction of Earth's tectonic plates. This small rift valley has a typical formation—long, narrow, and deep. It was formed by the Thingvellir rift, where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates are tearing, or rifting, apart over a hotspot on the island of Iceland.

How to solve number 10
Vinil7 [7]

The 'formulas' to use are just the definitions of 'power' and 'work':

Power = (work done) / (time to do the work)

and  

Work = (force) x (distance) .

Combine these into one. Take the definition of 'Work', and write it in place of 'work' in the definition of power.

Power = (force x distance) / (time)

From the sheet, we know the power, the distance, and the time.  So we can use this one formula to find the force.

Power = (force x distance) / (time)

Multiply each side by (time):  (Power) x (time) = (force) x (distance)

Divide each side by (distance): Force = (power x time) / (distance).

Look how neat, clean, and simple that is !

Force = (13.3 watts) x (3 seconds) / (4 meters)

Force = (13.3 x 3 / 4) (watt-seconds / meter)

Force = 39.9/4 (joules/meter)

<em>Force = 9.975 Newtons</em>

Is that awesome or what !
