Answer:

Wg is positive and WT negative.

(Letters in options are all wrongly written).

Explanation:

Remember that the work of a force is the internal product between the force and the displacement W=F.d.

Since the displacement is downwards like the weight, the work done by gravity is positive, while the work done by the tension is negative since it points upwards.

A detailed explanation of static and dynamic friction . plsssss​
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Static friction is what keeps the box from moving without being pushed, and it must be overcome with a sufficient opposing force before the box will move. Kinetic friction (also referred to as dynamic friction) is the force that resists the relative movement of the surfaces once they're in motionExplanation:

The coefficient of cubical expansion of a substance depends upon
zzz [600]
<span>I think that the coefficient of cubical expansion of a substance depends on THE CHANGE IN VOLUME.

Cubical expansion, also known as, volumetric expansion has the following formula:

</span>Δ V = β V₁ ΔT

V₁ = initial volume of the body
ΔT = change in temperature of the body
β = coefficient of volumetric expansion.

β is defined as the <span>increase in volume per unit original volume per Kelvin rise in temperature.
</span>
With the above definition, it is safe to assume that the <span>coefficient of cubical expansion of a substance depends on the change in volume, which also changes in response to the change in temperature. </span>
