Answer:

I believe the answer is 166.6 Joules or (if rounding to the nearest whole number) 167 Joules.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the formula to find the gravitational potential energy of an object:

U = m * g * h (potential energy equals mass times gravitational acceleration * the height)

The mass is 8.5 kilograms, the height is 2 meters, and Earth's gravitational acceleration is always, no matter the other values or earthly situations, 9.8 m/s.

Now we solve:

8.5 * 9.8 * 2 = 166.6 which is rounded to 167 Joules.

5 roommates share the cost of an apartment: rent,electricity, and gas. rent costs 1800 and gas costs 150 per month. each roommat
Naddik [55]

Answer:

Electricity bill is 175

<em />

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Rent = 1800

Gas = 150

Each\ Roommate = 425 monthly

Number\ of\ Roommate = 5

Required

Determine the electricity bill

If each roommate pays 425, then 5 roommates pay 5 * 425

Total = 5 * 425

Total = 2125

This implies that: the monthly cost of room, gas and electricity add up to 2125.

In other words,

Gas + Rent + Electricity = 2125

150 + 1800+ Electricity = 2125

1950+ Electricity = 2125

Electricity = 2125 - 1950

Electricity = 175

<em>Hence, the electricity bill is 175</em>

The diagram shows the cross-section of a wall of a cinema. It has to be painted. Work out the area that needs to be painted.
mestny [16]

Answer:

Area = 370 m²

Cost to paint = £105

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the wall of a cinema hall = Area of a trapezoid (1)+ Area of a rectangle (2) + Area of a trapezoid (3)

Area of a trapezoid = \frac{1}{2}(b_1+b_2)h

where b_1 and b_2 are the parallel sides and h is the distance between these sides.

Area of trapezoid (1) = \frac{1}{2}(11+12)\times 6

                                  = 69 m²

Area of the rectangle (2) = Length × Width

                                         = 12 × 15

                                         = 180 m²

Area of the trapezoid (3) = \frac{1}{2}(12+10)\times 11

                                         = 121 m²

Now area of the wall = 69 + 180 + 121

                                   = 370 m²

One tin covers the area = 25 m²

Number of tins required to paint the wall = \frac{\text{Total area}}{\text{Area covered by one tin}}

= \frac{370}{25}

= 14.8

Therefore, number of tins to be purchased = 15

Cost to paint the complete wall = 15 × £7

                                                       = £105
