Opportunity cost refers to what you have to give up to buy what you want in terms of other goods or services. When economists use the word “cost,” we usually mean opportunity cost.

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

47 kJoules (kJ)

Explanation:

Potential enegy on Earth is given by the relationship:

P.E. = mgh, where m is mass, g is the acceleration due to Earth's gravity, and h is height. Since we are given metric values, we will look for an answer that is consistent with Joules, the metric measure of energy. 1 Joule is defined as 1 kg*m^2/s^2, so we wnat units of kg, m, and sec.

We are given:

m = 95kg

h = 50 meters

Earth's gravity, g is 9.8 m/s^2

Enter the data:

P.E. = mgh

P.E. = (95kg)(9.8m/s^2)(50m)

P.E. = 46550 kg*m^2/s^2 or 46550 Joules(J)

Since we only have 2 sig figs, and since 1kJ =- 1000J

We can state the potential energy is 47kJ.

Spiderman has 47kJ of potential energy for the start of any dive back to Earth. [He needed that same amount of energy to reach that height, but we don't know from where it came. A jump, helicopter, beamed up by Scotty, or tossed up by Doctor Octopus.]

A procedure is all the steps used to do an experiment in order.
the experiment is when you test your hypothesis and is designed to answer your question.

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Samantha walks along a horizontal path in the direction shown the curved path is a semi circle with a radius of 2 m while the horizontal part is for me what is the magnitude of displacement

Displacement is given by the straight line distance between P and Q. Displacement will be length of straight line joining P and Q

a semi circle with a radius of 2 m

Length of this straight line=4+diameter

=4+(2*2)

=8 m
