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.

In an experiment examining the effect of leptin on the hunger of rats, rats in the __________ group are given leptin shots and r
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Experimental,Control

Explanation:

  • In an experiment, there are usually two groups that are taken and one is compared to another.
  • One group is the experimental group and the other group is the control group.
  • An experimental group is the one that receives the test sample or undergoes the experimental procedure and thus, the independent variable that is being tested for is changed for this group.
  • A control group is the one that does not undergo any experimental testing and hence, the independent variable is kept constant for this group.
  • Based on the above information it can be concluded that in the given experiment the rats that receiving leptin are the experimental group whereas those that do not receive anything are the control group.

Imagine you are a red blood cell sitting in the right atria of the heart. Write a paragraph that describes what happens to this
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

A red blood cell, sitting in the right atria of the heart is chocolate-brown in color since its a deoxygenated red blood cell with carbon dioxide rather than oxygen in its hemoglobin.

 

First

The tricuspid valve pumps it through the right ventricle

Secondly

pulmonary valve pumps it from the right ventricle to the pulmonary circulation.

Then

In the alveoli of the lungs, gas exchange occurs during pulmonary circulation

The end product is oxyhemoglobin( bright red colour) I.e oxygenated blood

The next step

pulmonary veins is the means whereby the red blood cell go to the left atria from the pulmonary circulation through the aortic valve

to mitral valve then to the aorta and systemic circulation

Therefore

oxygen is replaced by carbon dioxide during systemic circulation indicating a end to cellular respiration

Lastly

It's transported back to the right atrium of the heart completing the cardiac cycle.

Use the drop-down menus to identify the organelles labeled on the animal cell to the right.
geniusboy [140]

The label A represents mitochondria.

The mitochondria is also called the powerhouse of the cell which converts glucose to energy rich molecules of ATP.

Label B represents nucleus.

Nucleus contains the genetic material or DNA, RNA , nucleolus, chromatin fibres and proteins. It contains the chromosomes which control the hereditary characteristics.

Label C represents lysosome.

Lysosomes contain digestive juices which breaks down large cell parts and large molecules and helps in intracellular digestion.

Label D represents rough endoplasmic reticulum having ribosomes.

The rough endoplasmic reticulum provides surface for protein synthesis. It is also used to transport cellular contents from one cell to another.
