Answer:

Friction

Explanation:

Friction is wasted energy in the form of heat and or destruction.....this is why combustion engines have oil lubriction ====> reduce friction and wear

What is the force of a 24.52 kg Television dropped on Pluto (acceleration of 0.59 m/s2)

inna [77]

The force of gravity on the object is 14.47 N

Explanation:

The weight of an object (which is the force of gravity experienced by an object) at a certain location is given by

$F=mg$

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration of gravity at the location of the object

IN this problem, we have:

m = 24.52 kg (mass of the object)

$g=0.59 m/s^2$ (acceleration of gravity on Pluto)

Substituting, we find the force of gravity on the object:

$F=(24.52)(0.59)=14.47 N$

Answer:

$3.4\cdot 10^{-19} J$

Explanation:

In order to convert the work function of cesium from electronvolts to Joules, we must use the following conversion factor:

$1 eV = 1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} J$

In our problem, the work function of cesium is

$E=2.1 eV$

so, we can convert it into Joules by using the following proportion:

$1 eV : 1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J = 2.1 eV : x\\x=\frac{(1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J)(2.1 eV)}{1 eV}=3.4\cdot 10^{-19} J$
