Explanation:
Let us calculate the work done in lifting an object of mass m through a height h, such as in Figure 1. If the object is lifted straight up at constant speed, then the force needed to lift it is equal to its weight mg. The work done on the mass is then W = Fd = mgh. We define this to be the gravitational potential energy (PEg) put into (or gained by) the object-Earth system. This energy is associated with the state of separation between two objects that attract each other by the gravitational force
Potential energy is a property of a system rather than of a single object—due to its physical position. An object’s gravitational potential is due to its position relative to the surroundings within the Earth-object system. The force applied to the object is an external force, from outside the system. When it does positive work it increases the gravitational potential energy of the system. Because gravitational potential energy depends on relative position, we need a reference level at which to set the potential energy equal to 0. We usually choose this point to be Earth’s surface, but this point is arbitrary; what is important is the difference in gravitational potential energy, because this difference is what relates to the work done. The difference in gravitational potential energy of an object (in the Earth-object system) between two rungs of a ladder will be the same for the first two rungs as for the last two rungs.
Answer:
11
Explanation:
1. You are going to be rounding down.
2. change the metric ton to kg.
1.000 * 10^3 kg = 1000 kg
1000 / 87 = 11.49 = 11 people
Answer:
It was generally believed that mountains were produced by vertical forces
Explanation:
The main view of the world worked geologically prior to the 1960s was that the mountains were formed by the vertical forces of nature.
The early people prior to 1960s believed in many different natural phenomenons and they give their own reasons for their occurrence. But later many researchers and geophysicists studied the formation of the earth and came with possible answers to these questions.
Thus the answer is
" It was generally believed that mountains were produced by vertical forces."
Answer:
.....different temperatures
Explanation:
heat is a form of energy that is transfered from a body of high temperature to a body of low temperature....Cannot happen if the two bodies have the same temperature(thermal equilibrium)
The North Magnetic Pole is the point on the surface of Earth's Northern Hemisphere at which the planet's magnetic field points vertically downwards (in other words, if a magnetic compass needle is allowed to rotate about a horizontal axis, it will point straight down). There is only one location where this occurs, near (but distinct from) the Geographic North Pole and the Geomagnetic North Pole.
