Which involves more work in the scientific sense: moving the boxes and the furniture down from the second floor or up to the fif
Advocard [28]

Answer:

moving the boxes and the furniture up to the fifth floor.

Explanation:

The work done when moving an object up or down is equal to its change of gravitational potential energy:

W=mg \Delta h

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the gravitational acceleration

\Delta h is the change in height of the object

We have two opposite situations:

1) when an object is moved upward, \Delta h is positive, so the work done W is positive as well: this means that we need to do work in order to move the object, because we have to "win" the effect of gravity, which pulls the object downward

2) when an object is moved downward, \Delta h is negative, so the work done W is negative as well: this means that we do not need to do work on the object, because it is already done by gravity, which pulls the object downward.

Therefore, more work is done when we are moving the boxes and the furniture up to the fifth floor.

A house is advertised as having 1560 square feet under roof. What is the area of this house in square meters?
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

1 m = 3.28 ft

1 m^2 = 10.76 ft^2

1560 ft^2 / 10.76 ft^2 / m^2 = 145 m^2

In a binary-star system that produces a nova, the white dwarf pulls matter from the companion star. The matter forms an accretio
Studentka2010 [4]

As a head-up, it is important to notice that a white dwarf only shines thanks to the stored energy and light, because a white dwarf doesn't have any hydrogen left to perform nuclear fusion.

Now the process:

First, the white dwarf accumulates all the extracted matter from its companion, onto its own surface. This extra matter increases the white dwarf's temperature and density.

After a while, the star reaches about 10 million K, so nuclear fusion can begin. The hydrogen that has been "stolen" from the other star and accumulated in the white dwarf's surface it's used for the fusion, dramatically increasing the star's brightness for a short time, causing what we know as a Nova.

As this fuel its quickly burnt out or blown into space, the star goes back to its natural white dwarf state. Since the white dwarf nor the companion star are destroyed in this process, it can happen countless of times during their lifespan.

What must the charge (sign and magnitude) of a 1.45-g particle be for it to remain stationary when placed in a downward-directed
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

charge will be equal to 2.03\times 10^{-5}C  

Explanation:

We have given mass of the particle m = 1.45 gram = 0.00145 kg

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

Electric field E = 700 N/C

Electric force will be equal to F=qE, here q is charge and E is electric field

For particle to be stationary this force must be equal to force due to gravity , that is mg force

So qE = mg

q=\frac{mg}{E}=\frac{0.00145\times 9.8}{700}=2.03\times 10^{-5}C

So charge will be equal to 2.03\times 10^{-5}C
