Answer: positive

Explanation: according to newton's second law of motion, the applied force (pull) will produce a motion for the box defined by the formulae

f = ma, where m is the mass of the box and a is the acceleration.

But due to friction, a force of the same magnitude but opposite in direction to the push is applied, hence we have that

f - fr = ma

Where fr is the frictional force.

As we can see from the formulae, f (push) is responsible for a positive work while fr (friction) will bring about a negative work done.

Answer:

<em>UP</em>

Explanation:

heat flows from higher level to lower level

( higher concentration to lower concentration )

and since temperature in above block is less than the lower block, the heat will flow from lower block to higher block .

( Up )

Answer:

$= - 5.65\times 10^{-2} J$

Explanation:

Given data:

L =2.00 *10^4 m

d = 18*10^4 m

M = 18 *10^6 kg

m_1 = 8*10^6 kg

Gravitational energy is given as

$U =- G \frac{m_1 m_2}{r}$

mass per unit length is given as

$\sigma = \frac{M}{L} = \frac{18 \times 10^6}{2\times 10^4 m} = 900 kg/m$

calculating potential energy

$dU ==-G\int_{16\times 10^4}^{18\times 10^4} \frac{m_1 *dm}{r}$

$=-G\int_{16\times 10^4}^{18\times 10^4} \frac{m_1 *\sigma dr}{r}$

$=-G*m_1*\sigma\int_{16\times 10^4}^{18\times 10^4} \frac{dr}{r}$

$=-G*m_1*\sigma \left | ln r \right |_{16\times 10^4}^{18\times 10^4}$

$=-G*m_1*\sigma ln(1.125)$

$=-6.673 \times 10^{-11}*8*10^6*900*ln(1.125)$

$= - 5.65\times 10^{-2} J$
