Energy is transferred.

<h3>What is Work?</h3>

Every time labour is performed, energy is transmitted, as shown by the definition of work in physics. Work is the result of the displacement's magnitude and the component of force acting in that direction.

What are 3 types of work done?

  • Positive
  • Negative
  • Zero work done.

Work is the result of force and distance, or the force exerted over a specific distance. In other words, Work = Force x Distance.

Joules are used to measure work.

1. Positive Work: Positive work is when a force moves an object in that direction. The motion of a ball descending toward the earth while it is displaced in the direction of the force of gravity is an illustration of this type of labour.

2. Negative Work: The work is said to be negative if the force and the displacement are in the opposing directions. For instance, if a ball is thrown high, its displacement will also be upwards, while the force from the earth's gravity will be downward.

3. Zero Work: When the force and displacement directions are parallel to one another, there is no work done on the item by the force.

What is the total displacement???
muminat
Displacement (between time 0 and time 25) is the area under the velocity time curve, i.e. &int; vdt.
Here, v(0)=10, v(25)=34 (approx.)
Therefore 
displacement = (1/2)(10+34 m/s)*(25-0) s   [ trapezoid area ]
=550 m

Why does a bouncing ball rise to a lower height with each bounce?
grandymaker [24]
Because after each impact it loses a fraction of its original energy, because it gets transfered to the floor. this is the reason that a perpetual motion machine is impossible. you cannot have infinite energy, because to perform a task, energy must be spent. hope i helped :3

Following are the different layers of the sun’s atmosphere. Rank them based on the order in which a probe would encounter them w
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Going from earth to the sun a probe would encounter the next layers in order:

  • Corona
  • Transition Region
  • Chromosphere
  • Photosphere
  • Convection Zone
  • Radiative Zone
  • Core

A brief description of them:

Corona is the outermost layer and it cannot  be seen with the naked eye, is starts at about 2100 km from the surface of the sun and it has no limit defined.

Transition Region is between the corona and the chromosphere, it has an extension of about 100km

The chromosphere is between 400 km from the surface of the sun to 2100 km. In this layer the further you get away from the sun it gets hotter.

The photosphere is the surface of the sun, the part that we can see, and extends from the surface to 400km.

The convection zone is where convection happens, hot gas rises, cools and rises again.

Radiative Zone is where the photons try to rise to move to higher layers.

The core of the Sun is where nuclear fusion occurs due to the very high temperatures.

an ice cube is placed in the sun later there is a puddle of water later still the.puddle is gone what kind of change has occured
TiliK225 [7]

Clear question is;

An ice cube is placed in the sun. Later there is a puddle of water. Later still the puddle is gone. What kind of change has occurred?

Answer:

Physical change.

Explanation:

There are two type of changes called physical change and chemical change.

In Physical changes, there is only change in the appearance of the substance and not its chemical composition. Whereas, in Chemical changes the substance changes entirely into another substance with a new chemical formula.

Now, for the ice cube, it has melted from a solid state to a liquid state. Thus, there is only a change in appearance and not its chemical composition. Thus, it's a physical change that has occurred.

If a horse does 4000 J of work over 20 m, how much force does the horse use?
astraxan [27]
In physics, a force is said to do work<span> if, when acting, there is a displacement of the point of application in the direction of the force. It is calculated by the formula W = f x d. Therefore, we calculate the problem above as follows:

W = f x d
4000 = f x 20
f = 200 N <----- FIRST OPTION</span>
