ou have just moved into a new apartment and are trying to arrange your bedroom. You would like to move your dresser of weight 3,

500 NN across the carpet to a spot 5 mm away on the opposite wall. Hoping to just slide your dresser easily across the floor, you do not empty your clothes out of the drawers before trying to move it. You push with all your might but cannot move the dresser before becoming completely exhausted. How much work do you do on the dress

So far, since you moved into the apartment until the end of this much of the story, you haven't done ANY work on the dresser yet.

I'll admit that you pushed, groaned and grunted, sweated and strained plenty.  You're physically and mentally exhausted, you're not interested in the dresser at the moment, and right now you just want to snappa cappa brew, crash on the couch, and watch cartoons on TV.  But if you've done your Physics homework, you know you haven't technically done any <u><em>work</em></u> yet.

In Physics, "Work" is the product of Force times Distance.

Since the dresser hasn't budged yet, the Distahce is zero.  So no matter how great the Force may be, it's multiplied by zero, so the <em>Work is zero</em>.

A.) Determine the work done by Zach on the bull.
tresset_1 [31]

Explanation:

The unit of work done is in Joules

Work done is a physical quantity that is defined as the force applied to move a body through a particular distance.

Work is only done when the force applied moves a body through a distance.

    Work done  = Force x distance

The maximum work is done when the force is parallel to the distance direction.

The minimum work is done when the force is at an angle of 90° to the distance direction.

 So to solve this problem;

 multiply the force applied by Zack and distance through which the bull was pulled.

Which term refers to the energy that is stored or released during a change of state of water
Dima020 [189]
The appropriate term is latent heat. This energy is released as the water changes state from a gas to liquid....a liquid to solid etc. the latent heat is either absorbed or given off by the water as it changes its physical state. Latent heat of fusion is associated with freezing a liquid or melting a solid.

Components connected in series are connected along a single path, so the same current flows through all of the components. If the light bulbs are connected in parallel, the currents through the light bulbs combine to form the current in the battery, while the voltage drop is across each bulb and they all glow.
