What happens to the potential energy of an object when it falling from a high place?
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

The higher up an object is the greater its gravitational potential energy. ... As most of this GPE gets changed into kinetic energy, the higher up the object starts from the faster it will be falling when it hits the ground. So a change in gravitational potential energy depends on the height an object moves through.

John and his wife are celebrating their first wedding anniversary. Their dinner consists of 55 grams of carbohydrates, 36 grams
nika2105 [10]

Answer: 733 kcal

Explanation:

According to a system used to calculate the available energy of foods, we have the following data:

  • protein has 4 kcal/g
  • carbohydrates has 4 kcal/g
  • fat has 9 kcal/g
  • alcohol has 7 kcal/g

So, we are told Jhon and his wife's dinner has:

  • 55 g of carbohydrates
  • 36 g of protein
  • 27 g of fat
  • 18 g of

Now we have to multiply these values by the kilocalories:

  • (55 g of carbohydrates)(4 kcal/g)=220 kcal  
  • (36 g of protein)(4 kcal/g)=144 kcal
  • (27 g of fat)(9 kcal/g)=243 kcal
  • (18 g of alcohol)(7 kcal/g)=126 kcal

Then we have to sum all, giving the following result:

<h2>733 kcal</h2>
