Opening the valve allows more of the pressurized material out. If the area is decreased, less of the pressurized material is released, and its force ends up more spread out, reducing the pressure. Opening the valve will increase volume of transfer of your liquid.
Answer:
14 N to the right
Explanation:
The net force is equal to the resultant of the forces acting on the wagon. In this case, we are considering two forces acting on the wagon:
- The force applied by Marybeth, to the left, of magnitude 34 N
- The force applied by Grant, to the right, of magnitude 48 N
Since the two forces are in opposite directions, in order to find the net force, we must choose a positive direction. Let's take "right" as positive direction, so the net force is:

And the positive sign means the net force is to the right. Due to this net force different from zero, the wagon will have an acceleration to the right, so if the wagon was at rest, it will start moving to the right.

Answer: In all cases, gravitational potential energy, respect from a common reference level (street level for instance) is the same.
Explanation:
Gravitational potential energy, comes from the action of the gravitational field, which is a conservative one.
This means, that if someone does work against the field (for instance lifting a weight from the ground to a given height), and then drops the weight, the work done by the field will be exactly the same.
Otherwise, the object would have remaining energy after returning to the starting point, which would violate the laws of physics, specially Thermodynamic's 2nd Law.
For this reason, the gravitational potential energy only depends from the height, and is independent from the path taken to reach there.
