Answer:
c. 1600J
Explanation:
The loss in potential energy of the boy is given by:

where
m = 40 kg is the mass of the boy
g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity
is the total change in the height of the boy (4 metres + 2 cm due to the compression of the spring)
Substituting, we find

Answer: I have more time to think about the wonderful things in life that we don't always appreciate.
Explanation:
The correct answer is A. 250N
Work is a product of force and distance.
That is, work done=force×distance
Therefore substituting for the values in the question:
500J=force×2m
force= 500Nm/2m=250N
another unit for work done is Nm as force as the SI unit of force is newtons and distance in meters
