<span>gravitational potential energy : P
Gravity : g
Mass : m
height : h

P = mgh  = 3 x 9.8 x 0.45 = 13.23 Joule

Potential energy is work , from the known formula

W = Fd ( work = force x distance ) 

W = P ( in case of potential energy height change)

F is the force acting on the body in case of ideal ramp , the only force acting is the weight of the body

F = mg ( not just <m> as the force is mg (Newton) gravity effect)

d is the displacement in direction of force, as we have considered the force to be the weight not it's component in direction of the ramp , the change in displacement is the change in height so

d = h 

W = Fd = (F = mg) x (d = h) = mgh 

W = mgh = P

Rewrite the expression 26 + 8 as the product of the GCF (greatest common factor) and a sum. Then, simplify the expression. Show
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf 2(13+4)}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given expression is:</u>

26 + 8

The Greatest Common Factor is 2. So, we'll take 2 as common:

=> \sf 2(13+4)

After simplifying , we get the same expression:

=> \sf 26+8

Hope this helped!

\rule[225]{225}{2}

Make x the subject of the formula 6x+a=5(x+t)
Mademuasel [1]
1. Expand
6x + a = 5x + 5t
2. Get x on one side
6x - 5x = 5t - a
3. Simplify
x = 5t - a (I think)

A map of Colorado says that the scale is 1 inch to 20 miles or 1 to 1,267,200. Are these two ways of reporting the scale the sam
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

1,267,200

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the map reported that the scale is 1 inch to 20 miles.

Recall that there are 63,360 inches in 1 mile, thus, in 20 miles, we have 20 x 63,360 = 1,267,200

Therefore, the scale of 1 inch to 20 miles can also be represented as 1 to 1,267,200

A school principal has to choose randomly among the six best students in each grade to be the school captain every month. For th
Viefleur [7K]

Since there are 6 students out of which one needs to be selected, the principal chose two die on which there are six numbers each numbered from 1 , 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.

Since there are two dice, the total possible outcome is 36.

Hence, the probability of getting one number each is 1/36

Hence, the principal used a fair method because each result is an equally likely possible outcome.

Option B is correct.
