Answer:

Argument in favor of less total energy consumption if the store is kept at a low temperature

Explanation:

Have in mind that if the store has numerous refrigerators and freezers, the energy consumption of those machines have to be included into the analysis.

Recall that the efficiency (or Coefficient Of Performance - COP) of a frezzer or refrigerator is inversely proportional to the temperature difference between the inside of th machine and the environment where it is operation, therefore the smaller the difference, the highest their efficiency. Therefore, the cooler the environment (the temperature at which the store is kept) the better performance of the running refrigerators and freezers.

a. 46 m/s east

The jet here is moving with a uniform accelerated motion, so we can use the following suvat equation to find its velocity:

v=u+at

where

v is the velocity calculated at time t

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

The jet in the problem has, taking east as positive direction:

u = +16 m/s  is the initial velocity

a=+3 m/s^2  is the acceleration

Substituting t = 10 s, we find the final velocity of the jet:

v=16 + (3)(10)=46 m/s

And since the result is positive, the direction is east.

b. 310 m

The displacement of the jet can be found using another suvat equation

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s is the displacement

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

For the jet in this problem,

u = +16 m/s  is the initial velocity

a=+3 m/s^2  is the acceleration

t = 10 s is the time

Substituting into the equation,

s=(16)(10)+\frac{1}{2}(3)(10)^2=310 m

A. 0.5kg

To get this answer you need to follow the equation of KE=0.5*mv^2 
But we don't have the m part in the equation. So just plug in the numbers to see which works best, though I can tell you before we do that the answer would be a. 

As you may know, gravity, is a force of 9.8 m/s. And we want to get 9.8 Joules. So if we take a half a kg stone, release it at one meter, we get half of the normal gravity pull, 4.90 Joules. That means if we take half a kg stone and drop it at a doubled height, we get 9.8 Joules.

That is also to say that if we have a 1kg stone and drop it at one meter you will get the normal pull of gravity in Joules, 9.8J. 

Be careful though, this does not mean if you drop a 1kg stone and a .5 kg stone the 1kg will hit first. This simply means that the 1kg stone will have twice the Joules that the .5kg stone has.
