Answer: 17.658kJ

Explanation:

The work done in lifting the refridgerator is given my

W = F.d

Where W = Work done, F = Force and d = distance/height to be covered by that force = 6m

But F = mg (this work is done against gravity)

Where m = mass of fridge and g = acceleration due to gravity.

F = 300kg × 9.81m/s^2

= 2943N

W = Fh (where h is the height to be scaled by the force)

W = 2943 × 6

W = 17658J

17.658kJ of work is needed to lift the refridgerator to a height of 6m

1.)Which is the correctly balanced equation?
iVinArrow [24]
A. The correctly balanced equation is that in which the number of atoms of a certain element at the left-hand side is similar to that in the right hand side or the reactant side and product side, respectively. From the given equation, the answer would be,

       C. Cl2 + 2NaI --> 2NaCl + I2


B. In the given chemical reaction above, heat is emitted such that it appears in the product side of the equation. Hence, this is an example of a combustion reaction. 

C. Similar with the reasoning in letter A, the answer to this item is,
          B. 2H2 + O2 --> 2H2O

What is polygamy? Explain please:)
Mariulka [41]

I always thought that 'polygamy' refers to the social system in which a man
may have more than one wife, and I thought there's some other word for
where a woman is married to more than one man. 

But when I went to look it up just now to answer your question, (which by the
way you could also have done very easily), I found a definition that says it's a
"state of marriage between many spouses".  That doesn't specify genders, so
I guess it means any marriage that involves more than two people, no matter
how the genders may be represented or distributed within it.

Two cars leave towns 680 kilometers apart at the same time and travel toward each other. one car's rate is 10 kilometers per hou
Evgen [1.6K]

D = distance between the cars at the start of time = 680 km

v₁ = speed of one car

v₂ = speed of other car = v₁ - 10

t = time taken to meet = 4 h

distance traveled by one car in time "t" + distance traveled by other car in time "t" = D

v₁ t + v₂ t = D

(v₁ + v₂) t = D

inserting the values

(v₁ + v₁ - 10) (4) = 680

v₁ = 90 km/h

rate of slower car is given as

v₂ = v₁ - 10

v₂ = 90 - 10 = 80 km/h

A 5.10 kgkg watermelon is dropped from rest from the roof of a 18.5 mm-tall building and feels no appreciable air resistance.
VARVARA [1.3K]

Work done is by the change in the potential energy of the system. The work done by gravity is 924.63 J.

<h3>What is the Kinetic Energy?</h3>
  • Potential energy in physics is the energy that an item retains as a result of its position in relation to other objects, internal tensions, electric charge, or other elements.
  • The gravitational potential energy of an object, which is based on its mass and distance from another object's center of mass, the elastic potential energy of an extended spring, and the electric potential energy of an electric charge in an electric field are examples of common types of potential energy. The joule, denoted by the letter J, is the energy unit in the International System of Units (SI).

Solution:

mass = 5.10 kg

height = 18.5 mm

We know that work done by the gravity on the watermelon is the change in the potential energy of the watermelon, therefore,

Work done due to gravity = change in the potential energy of the system

W = \Delta PE

W = mg (h₀ - h₁)

W = 5.10 × 9.8 × 18.5

W = 924.63 J
