Explanation:
Let us calculate the work done in lifting an object of mass m through a height h, such as in Figure 1. If the object is lifted straight up at constant speed, then the force needed to lift it is equal to its weight mg. The work done on the mass is then W = Fd = mgh. We define this to be the gravitational potential energy (PEg) put into (or gained by) the object-Earth system. This energy is associated with the state of separation between two objects that attract each other by the gravitational force
Potential energy is a property of a system rather than of a single object—due to its physical position. An object’s gravitational potential is due to its position relative to the surroundings within the Earth-object system. The force applied to the object is an external force, from outside the system. When it does positive work it increases the gravitational potential energy of the system. Because gravitational potential energy depends on relative position, we need a reference level at which to set the potential energy equal to 0. We usually choose this point to be Earth’s surface, but this point is arbitrary; what is important is the difference in gravitational potential energy, because this difference is what relates to the work done. The difference in gravitational potential energy of an object (in the Earth-object system) between two rungs of a ladder will be the same for the first two rungs as for the last two rungs.
Answer:
The volume of water evaporated is 199mL
Explanation:
Concentration is calculated with the following formula
where n is the number of moles of solute and V is the volume of the solution (in this case is the same as the solvent volume) in liters.
So we isolate the variable n to know the amount of moles, using the volume given in liters
Now, we isolate the variable V to know the new volume with the new concentration given.
Finally, the volume of water evaporated is the difference between initial and final volume.
The air movements toward the equator are called trade winds, which are warm, steady breezes that blowalmost continuously. The Coriolis Effect makes the trade winds appear to be curving to the west, whether they are traveling to the equator from the south or north. Answer trade wind
Answer:
The sum of positive and negative charges in a unit of Al2O3 equals zero.
Aluminium has a charge of +3 while Oxygen has a charge of -2 on each ion.
Al203 has 2 Al atoms and 3 O atoms.
Charge on Al2O3 = 2(charge on Al ion) + 3(charge on O ion)
= 2(3) + 3(-2)
= 6 - 6
= 0
Explanation:
Aluminium has 3 electrons in the outermost shell and has the tendency to lose those 3 electrons to form a positive ion and have a complete outermost shell.
Whereas, Oxygen has 6 electrons in the outermost and has the tendency to accept two more electrons to form a negative ion and have a complete outermost shell.
