The thermal energy used by the tires is 1.14 J.

Here, the thermal energy used will be the work done by Mark.

Given,

Distance = 140 m

Force exerted = 160 N

Thermal energy = ?

We know,

Work = force * displacement

But here the thermal energy of tires is asked.

In this question, the thermal energy used is the energy consumed to do the work.

So, using the formula of work we can find the thermal energy.

W = 160 / 140 = 1.14 J

Therefore the thermal energy used by the tires is 1.14J

A circular swimming pool has a diameter of 12 m. The circular side of the pool is 3 m high, and the depth of the water is 2.5 m.
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Explanation:

Diameter of pool = 12 m

radius of pool, r = 6 m

Total height raised, h = 3 + 2.5 = 5.5 m

density of water, d = 1000 kg/m³

Mass of water, m = Volume of water x density

m = πr²h x d

m = 3.14 x 6 x 6 x 5.5 x 1000

m = 113040 kg

Work = m x g x h

W = 113040 x 9.8 x 5.5

W = 6092856 J

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

(1) An object that’s negatively charged has more electrons than protons.

(2) An object that’s positively charged has fewer electrons than protons.

(3) An object that’s not charged has the same number of electrons than protons.

Explanation :

Objects have three subatomic particles that are Electrons, protons, and neutrons.

Protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus and electrons rotate or move outside the nucleus. Naturally, protons are positively charged, neutrons have no charge, and electrons are negatively charged.

Therefore, an object that is negatively charged has more electrons than protons.  An object that is not charged has the same number of electrons than protons. An object that is positively charged has fewer electrons than protons.
