3 0

Answer:

Capillary action occurs because water is sticky, thanks to the forces of cohesion (water molecules like to stay close together) and adhesion (water molecules are attracted and stick to other substances).

9. A 227 kg object is moved a distance of 2.4 m forward by a force. If 686 J of work is done on the object, what is the object’s
Korolek [52]

<em>1</em><em>.</em><em>259ms^2</em>

Explanation:

since, WORK DONE = FORCE*DISTANCE

AND, FORCE=MASS*ACCELERATION

SO, THE WORK DONE BECOMES=MASS*ACCELERATION*DISTANCE

ACCELERATION=WORK/(MASS*DISTANCE)

AND, WORK=686J

MASS=227kg

DISTANCE=2.4m

THEREFORE, ACCELERATION=686/(227*2.4)

=686/544.8

=1.259ms^2

9. Luke is an astronaut that moves his position in the space shuttle by climbing a
BartSMP [9]

Explanation:

Remember that power is defined as how much Work is done per unit of time.

P = \frac{dW}{dt}

Work is defined as the amount of force applied across a certain distance.  

W = F*d

Since in both cases of climbing the ladder (on Earth and the moon), Luke coveres the same amount of <em>distance </em>in the same amount of <em>time</em>, we are only left with one difference between the two cases - gravity.

If you were to carry your backpack on the moon with the same load of text books, it would take less force to pick it up on the moon. Therefore, Luke expends less effort on the environment with less gravity - the moon.

To find the difference factor - you would want to divid the gravitational contants between earth and the moon.
