A 0.810 kg ball falls 2.5m. How much work does the force of gravity do on the ball?

Physics

Answer:

W = 19.845 J

Explanation:

Work is defined as W = Fdcos\theta, where F is the force exerted and d is the distance. Because the direction the ball is falling is the same direction as the force itself, \theta = 0 deg, and since cos(0) = 1, this equation is equivalent to W = Fd. In this case, the force exerted is the weight force, which is equivalent to m * g. Substituting you get:

W = mgd = 0.810 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * 2.5m

W = 19.845 J

Help me pls its for my science class i need to show my work
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

P = 5880  J

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the block, m = 30 kg

The block is sitting at a height of 20 m.

The block will have gravitational potential energy. The formula for gravitational potential energy is given by :

P=mgh\\\\=30\times 9.8\times 20\\\\=5880\ J

So, the required potential energy is equal to 5880  J.

A 12.65 g sample of a radioactive substance is allowed to decay for 17.22 min. At that time, the sample weighed 3.115 g. What is
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

8.61 min

Explanation:

original mass= 12.65

first half life = 12.65/2 = 6.325

second half life = 6.325/2 = 3.1625

Note : 3.1625 is the closest to the value (3.115) given so we work with it

total time for decay =17.22

therefore two decays = 17.22/2= 8.61

The sun is the ___________ of all the energy that moves though food
Marta_Voda [28]


The sun is the <em><u>source</u></em> of all the energy that moves through food. It helps the plants to grow which in turn become food that we and other animals eat.

Hope it helps :)
