You are given the mass of the book with an initial height of 0.77m. You are also given the final height of the book, 2m above the floor. The problem requires you to find the work done on the book. It is said that work is equal to force times distance. And that force is equal to mass times acceleration due to gravity.
W=Fd
W=mgd=mgh
W=(1.7kg)(9.8m/s^2)(2m-0.77m)
W=20.49J
<span>The work is equal to 20.49J.</span>

What is a disadvantage of using nuclear power to produce electricity?
MrRa [10]

Question:

What is a disadvantage of using nuclear power to produce electricity?

Answer:

Disadvantages of Nuclear Power

The further implementations of nuclear power are limited because although nuclear energy does not produce CO2 the way fossil fuels do, there is still a toxic byproduct produced from uranium-fueled nuclear cycles: radioactive fission waste.

Which is an example of an abiotic factor in a pound environment
zvonat [6]
A. The water

Biotic factors mean living this such as frogs, grasshoppers, snakes, etc.

Aboriginal factors means non-living such as water, temperature, sunlight, etc.
Abiotic factors are the non-living parts of the environment that have a major influence on living organisms which makes water an abiotic factor.

Hope this helped, if it did please like (if you want to :)

A body travels 30m in 5s, 45m in 7s and then 65m in the last 5s. Find the average speed of the body
JulijaS [17]
We can find the average speed of the body by finding the total distance covered, and then dividing it by the total time of the motion.

The total distance covered is:
S=30 m + 45m+65m=140 m

while the total time of the motion is
t=5 s+7s+5 s=17 s

So, the average speed of the body is:
v= \frac{S}{t}= \frac{140 m}{17 s}=8.24 m/s

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

The statement is implying that if you do a certain amount of work, you're entitled to do a certain amount of work. Sometimes, work doesn't entitle you a reward.
