294000J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Height of hill = 500m

Mass of Chris = 60kg

Unknown:

Potential energy increase = ?

Solution:

Potential energy is the energy by virtue of the position of a body.

  Potential energy = mgh

m is the mass of the bike

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height

At the base of the hill,

    P.E = mgh = 60 x 9.8 x 0 = 0J

At the top:

    P.E = mgh = 60 x 9.8 x 500 = 294000J

Potential energy increase = 294000J - 0J = 294000J

ch4aika [34]

Answer:   The correct answer is :  A, B, C, D.  All statements are correct.

Explanation:  This case is called non-competitive inhibition. As a result of the inhibition of the enzyme, there will eventually be less substrate that becomes the final product and this route will be closed. Enzyme 1 has two binding sites.

Allushta [10]

Answer:

P = mgh/t = 61(9.8)(0.32)/1.8 = 106.275555... ≈ 110 W

Explanation:

Power is the rate of doing work.

The work changes her potential energy.
