<span>The change in internal energy is only gravitional PE because the tube is being drug up at a constant speed. Since it is at a constant speed, the change in KE is 0. Change in PE = m*g*h = 78 kg * 10 m/s^2 * 30 m = 23400 J Work done on the system is from the force Work = force * distance = 350 N * 120 m = 42000 J So, work added 42000 J to the system, but the rider's energy only increased 23400 J. Therefore, friction took up the difference. Friction is where the thermal energy comes from Q = 42000 J - 23400 J = 18600 J. Therfore, friction generated 18600 J of heat to the surroundings.</span>

Are all liquids able to conduct an electric current
Alona [7]

The ions are able to carry electric current through a solution. Some liquids such as oil or alcohol do not form ions and do not conduct electricity. Vinegar is mostly water with a small amount of acetic acid in it. The acetic acid separates into ions on so that the solution conducts electricity.     BRAINLIST ME PEASE
