Explanation:
Work done by gravity is given by the formula,
W = ......... (1)
It is known that when levels are same then height of the liquid is as follows.
h = ......... (2)
Putting value of equation (2) in equation (1) the overall formula will be as follows.
W =
=
= 0.689 J
Thus, we can conclude that the work done by the gravitational force in equalizing the levels when the two vessels are connected is 0.689 J.
Answer:
Mass and velocity.
Explanation:
Kinetic energy <u>is the energy that an object has due to its movement</u>, mathematically it is represented as follows:
where is the mass of the object, and
is its velocity at a given point in time.
So we can see that to find the kinetic energy just before the ball hits the gound, we need the quantities:
With the knowledge of these two quantities the kinetic energy of the ball before touching the gound can be determined.
