Answer:
No
Explanation:
The force of tension exerted by the string on the rock acts as centripetal force, so its direction is always towards the centre of the circle.
However, the direction of motion of the rock is always tangential to the circle: this means that the force is always perpendicular to the direction of motion of the rock.
As we know, the work done by a force on an object is
where
F is the magnitude of the force
d is the displacement of the object
is the angle between the force and the displacement
In this situation, F and d are perpendicular, so 
, therefore 
and the work done is zero:
Answer:
Bouyancy
Explanation:
Bouyancy occurs when the upthrust exerted on an object is equal to the weight of object displaced. It is mostly applicable to low density objects for example balloon. When balloon is displaced in water, it floats. This is due to the effect of the upthrust acting on the balloon which allows the balloon to float and which is opposite the weight.
Note that the weight acts downwards the object while the upthrust always acts opposite (upward)
Answer:
GPE = 388.08 Joules.
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Mass = 0.550kg
Speed = 335 m/s
Height = 72 meters
We know that acceleration due to gravity, g is equal to 9.8 m/s²
To find the gravitational potential energy;
Gravitational potential energy (GPE) is an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position above the earth.
Mathematically, gravitational potential energy is given by the formula;
Where;
G.P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.
m represents the mass of an object.
g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.
h represents the height measured in meters.
Substituting into the formula, we have;
GPE = 388.08 Joules.
