A hand lifts a block vertically upward at constant velocity. The work done by gravity on the block ____ if the system consists o
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

If the system consists of the block only, the work done by the gravity is negative.

If the system consists of the block and the earth the work done by the gravity is zero.

Explanation:

If the system consists of the block only, then the system experiences two external forces: one exerted by the hand that lifts the block vertically upward and other exerted by the earth (gravity), which is opposed to the movement of the system, so the work done by gravity is negative.

On the other hand, if the system consists of the block and the earth, then only exists a external force which is the exerted by the hand. So, the force exerted by gravity is zero.

What is the gravitational potential energy of a 15.0kg object that is 5.00m above the ground relative to a point 8.00m above the
Licemer1 [7]

Explanation:

an object's gravitational potential energy Eg is m×g×h where:

m=mass

g=9.8m/s²

h=height relative to the closest object below it (because it cannot potentially fall through it

so Eg = 15×9.8×5=735J
