 a. 4.45 N-m. b. 44.5 N-m.
  c. 445 N-m. d. 4,450 N-m.



[Ques. 3] The mass of 1 cubic meter of fresh water at the top of a 100 m hydroelectric dam is 1,000 kg and it has a potential energy of 980,000 N. At the bottom of the dam, the speed of the moving water is
 a. 9,800 m/s. b. 1,960 m/s.
  c. 44.3 m/s. d. 98 m/s.
