Answer:

Explanation:

The work done is defined as the product of force applied in the direction of displacement and the displacement.

W = F x d x Cosθ

where, F is the force applied, d be the displacement and θ be the angle between the displacement and force.

For the normal forces, the angle between the displacement and the force applied is 90 degree, and the value of Cos 90 is zero, so the work done is zero.

When water vapor rises into the atmosphere and begins to condense, it releases ________, the energy of a thunderstorm.

zubka84 [21]

The answer is latent heat. The specific latent heat of vaporisation, L_v, of a substance is the energy input required for each kilogram to be converted from liquid to gas by evaporation. The 'specific' means per kilogram, so more generally latent heat of vaporisation is the energy taken in during the process for a given mass.

Here we are not vaporising the substance. We are in fact condensing it, the reverse process. All this means is the latent heat is released as electrostatic potential decreases in the water, as opposed to being absorbed. I hope this helps you :)

The drawing shows three objects rotating about a vertical axis. The mass of each object is given in terms of m0, and its perpend

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

I₁ > I₃ > I₂

Explanation:

Taking the pic shown, we have

m₁ = 10m₀

m₂ = 2m₀

m₃ = m₀

r₁ = r₀

r₂ = 2r₀

r₃ = 3r₀

We apply the formula

I = mr²

then

I₁ = m₁r₁² = (10m₀)(r₀)² = 10m₀r₀²

I₂ = m₂r₂² = (2m₀)(2r₀)² = 8m₀r₀²

I₃ = m₃r₃² = (m₀)(3r₀)² = 9m₀r₀²

finally we have

I₁ > I₃ > I₂
