Sample Response: Because energy cannot be created or destroyed, the total input is equal to the total output. The total amount of energy remains the same even though it may change forms.

The amount of energy before and after any energy transformations remain the same because energy cannot be created or destroyed. From the law conservation of energy; any time energy is transferred between two objects, or converted from one form into another, no energy is created and none is destroyed. The total amount of energy involved in the process remains the same.

kogti [31]

Answer:

164.87 J

Explanation:

From the question,

Work done (W) = mghcosθ........................ Equation 1

Where m = mass of the box, h = height, g = acceleration due to gravity, θ = angle to the vertical

Given: m = 25 kg, h = 2.6 meters, θ = 75°.

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these value into equation 1

W = 25×9.8×2.6×cos75°

W = 164.87 J.

Calculate the potential energy of a 20-kg sled at 40 meters
irakobra [83]

Answer: 7840N

Explanation:

Given that

Potential energy = ?

Mass of sled = 20-kg

Distance = 40 meters

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s^2

Recall that potential energy is the energy possessed by a body at rest

i.e potential energy = mass m x acceleration due to gravity g x distance h

P.E = mgh

P.E = 20kg x 9.8m/s^2 x 40m

P.E = 7840N

Thus, the potential energy of the sled is 7840N

Which planet is known as evening star​
Verdich [7]

Answer:

Mercury is a metal that is used in

Mercury can be seen as an evening "star" near the sun's setting point or as a morning "star" near the sun's rising point. The evening star was given the name Hermes, and the morning star was given the name Apollo, since the ancient Greeks thought they were two separate things. Mercury, the Roman god's messenger, is the planet's name.
