A crane lifts a 100 kg concrete block to a vertical height of 25 m. Calculate
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

Solon,

total mass (kg)= 100kg

height (h)= 25m

acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

so,

work done =m*g*h

= 100*9.8*25

= 24,500 joule

Which BEST describes the difference between speed and velocity?
kirill [66]

Answer : The correct option is, (D) Velocity includes rate of change and direction.

Explanation :

Speed : Speed is defined as the distance traveled by an object with respect to the time taken. It is a scalar quantity that means it tell us about the magnitude of an object not direction.

Velocity : Velocity is defined as the rate of change of position of an object with respect to the time. It is a vector quantity that means it tell us about the magnitude and direction of an object.

The only difference between the speed and the velocity is that the velocity tell us about magnitude and direction but speed tell us about magnitude only.

Hence, the correct option is, (D) Velocity includes rate of change and direction.

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

Answer explained below

Explanation:

(a) The rays are diverging near the lens. They change the direction when they passed through the converging lens

(b) If the light rays don't bend they will move away from the optical (principal axis) as the other waves are moving.

(c) If we decrease the distance between lens and light source, most of the rays diverge and no ray converges on the screen even after passing through the lens. Here is a screenshot.
