amount of work done is 5880 J

Given:

mass of object = 50kg

Final height = 20m

initial height = 8m

To Find:

amount of work done

Solution:

work is done when a force acts upon an object to cause a displacement. You can calculate the energy transferred, or work done, by multiplying the force by the distance moved in the direction of the force.

The work done by gravity is given by the formula,

W = mgh

W = 50 x 9.8 x ( 20-8)

= 5880 J

So the work done is 5880 J

Why are astronauts weightless in the space station?
olga55 [171]

Answer:

Astronauts float around in space because there is no gravity in space. Everyone knows that the farther you get from Earth, the less the gravitational force is. Well, astronauts are so far from the Earth that gravity is so small. This is why NASA calls it microgravity.

Which of the following graphs correctly represents the relationship between the pressure and the volume of an ideal gas that is
vazorg [7]
Well, you haven't given us much of a choice of graphs to pick from, have you.

If a sample of an ideal gas is held at constant temperature, then
its pressure and volume are inversely proportional ... the harder
you squeeze it, the smaller the volume gets, and less squeeze
produces more volume.

Actually, the product of (pressure) x (volume) is always the
same number.

The graph of that relationship is all in the first quadrant.
It starts out very high right next to the y-axis, then drops down
toward the x-axis while curving to the right and becoming horizontal,
and ends up trying to get closer and closer to the x-axis but never
actually becoming zero.

How many focal points does a lens have?
VMariaS [17]

Answer and Explanation:

Every lens have two focal points each focal point is present on the either side of the lens. In lenses when light comes from the infinite it passes through the focal point it is true for both converging as well as diverging lens. In mirror there is only one focal point as it one face is covered but in lens light can pass through side of the lens so it has two focal point
