How does the work needed to lift an object and the gravitational potential energy of an object compare

Physics
1 answer:
Ganezh [65]3 years ago
8 0

When you do work to lift the object, the amount of work you do BECOMES the object's gravitational potential energy.  It GETS its potential energy from the work you do to lift it.  They're equal.  You lose it, and the object gains it.  Energy is not created or destroyed.  It's just transferred from you to the object.  

Later, when you DROP the object, GRAVITY does the same amount of work on it, to pull it to the ground.  Again, no energy is created or destroyed.  Every time a force acts to move anything, the energy to do it comes from somewhere, and the energy goes somewhere.

The index of refraction of a substance is 1.5. Find the sine of the angle of refraction if the sine of the angle of incidence is
Mariulka [41]
We can answer the problem by Snell's Law:

Snell's law<span> (also known as </span>Snell<span>–Descartes </span>law<span> and the </span>law<span> of refraction) is a formula used to describe the relationship between the angles of incidence and refraction, when referring to light or other waves passing through a boundary between two different isotropic media, such as water, glass, or air.</span>

What would be the best design for an experiment that tests how much water expands when frozen?
galben [10]

B. Purchase a small plastic container and mark 1-ounce increments on the outside to determine volume. Pour 5 ounces of water into the container, and place in the freezer for 8 hours. Compare the frozen or ending volume with the liquid or beginning volume.

<h3>How much water expands when frozen?</h3>

Ice is less denser than the liquid form. Water is the only known non-metallic substance that expands when it freezes because it is the unique property of water. Water density decreases and it expands approximately  about 9% by volume. For calculating the expansion of water, plastic container is the best option. We know that water expands when the water freezes because it is a unique property of water which allows the survival of aquatic organisms.

So we can conclude that option B is the right answer.

A 65 N boy sits on a sled weighing 52 N on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of friction between the sled and the snow is 0.
pogonyaev

Answer:

1.40 N

Explanation:

The magnitude of the frictional force is given by:

F=\mu N

where

\mu is the coefficient of friction

N is the magnitude of the normal reaction

The coefficient of friction for this problem is \mu=0.012. The magnitude of the normal reaction is equal to the combined weight of the boy and the sled, because the surface is horizontal, so

N=65 N+52 N=117 N

Therefore, the frictional force is

F=\mu N=(0.012)(117 N)=1.40 N
