Work is Force multiplied by distance: work = Fd

work = mgh

work = (5.0 kg)(9.8 m/s)(3.5 m)

work = 171.5 joules or for two sigfigs, 170 joules

What type of energy does a pv cell create ?
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:  Solar Photovoltaic (PV) cells generate electricity by absorbing sunlight and using that light energy to create an electrical current. There are many PV cells within a single solar panel, and the current created by all of the cells together adds up to enough electricity to help power your school, home and businesses.

A 57 g ice cube can slide without friction up and down a 33 ∘ slope. The ice cube is pressed against a spring at the bottom of t
beks73 [17]
The springs stored energy is transferred to the cube as kinetic energy and then by the slop the KE is converted to height energy. 

<span>0.5 . k . x^2 = 0.5 . m . v^2 = m . g . ∆h </span>

<span>0.5 . 50 . (0.1^2) = 0.05 . 9.8 . ∆h </span>

<span>∆h = 0.51 m = 51 cm </span>

<span>This is the height gained </span>
<span>Distance along the slope = ∆h / sin 60 = 0.589 = 59 cm </span>

<span>In the second case, the stored spring energy is converted into height energy AND frictional heat energy. </span>

<span>The height energy is m . g . d sin 60 where d is the distance the cube moves along the slope. </span>

<span>The Frictional energy converted is F . d </span>

<span>F ( the frictional force ) = µ . N </span>

<span>N ( the reaction to the component of the gravity force perpendicular to the surface of the slope ) = m . g . cos60 </span>

<span>Total energy converted </span>

<span>0.5 . k . x^2 = (m . g . dsin60) + (µ . m . g . cos60 . d ) </span>

<span>Solve for d </span>

<span>d = 0.528 = 53 cm</span>

Why are there variations of traits within a population?
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

The variation and distribution of traits in a population depend on genetic and environmental factors. Genetic variation can result from mutations caused by environmental factors or errors in DNA replication, or from chromosomes swapping sections during meiosis.

Explanation:

Hope this helps!

If your speed changes from 10 km/h to 6 km/h, you have a(n) ______ acceleration.
Delicious77 [7]

If your speed changes from 10 km/h to 6 km/h then
you have an acceleration. 

Whether it's a positive or negative one completely depends
on which direction you decided to call the positive direction,
when you started considering your speed and its changes.

If you decided to call the direction in which you're traveling
the positive direction, then a decrease in your speed is a
negative acceleration. 

But you could just as easily have said that you're traveling
in the negative direction.  If you did that, then a decrease in
your speed would be a positive acceleration.

It's completely up to you, and how you define things.
