Answer:

Methemoglobinemia

Explanation:

Methemoglobinemia (also known as the blue baby syndrome), is a condition with multiple etiologies which is associated with the lack of oxygen in the blood. This syndrome affects the function of red blood cells by altering the amount of hemoglobin protein, which carries and distributes oxygen to the body. Methemoglobinemia may be acquired by exposure to drugs and/or toxins. In this regard, it has been shown that high levels of nitrates in the water may induce this syndrome in infants.

a 24 kg rock containing 3,528 j of potential energy rests upon the edge of a cliff how tall is the cliff

GenaCL600 [577]

Potential gravitational energy is computed with the formula:

$PEgrav=mgh$

Where:
PEgrav = Potential gravitation energy (J)
m = mass (kg)
h = height (m)
g = acceleration due to gravity (9.8m/s^2)

Take note that acceleration due to gravity is a constant.

All you need to do is put in what you know and solve for what you don't know. So your given is the following:
PEgrav = 3,528J
m = 24 kg
g = 9.8 m/s^2
Put that into your formula:
$PEgrav=mgh$
$3,528J = (24kg)(9.8m/s^{2})(h)$
$3,528J = (235.2kg.m/s^{2})(h)$
$\frac{3,528J}{235.2kg.m/s^{2}} = h$
$15m=h$

The height of the cliff is 15m.
