In order for work to take place the energy present must be related to the movement of the object.

Physics

This is another one of those muddy misleading questions, followed by
a muddy group of choices from which an answer must be selected.

a).  is absurd.  There's no such thing as a "balanced force", only
a balanced group of forces.

b).  is probably the choice the question is aiming for.

c).  is not so.  The engines of an airplane do plenty of work lifting the plane
off the ground, although the force of the engines is never directed upward.

d).  is really awkward.  The object's motion is almost never the cause of the force.
The force is almost always the cause of the object's motion.

Now for the big 800-lb gorilla in the room:  No moving object needs to be involved
in order for energy to be flowing or work to be getting done.

-- A radio wave radiates through space.  Straighten out a wire coat-hanger and
stick it up in the air where the radio wave can pass by it.  Electrical current flows
through the wire, and you can drain the electrical energy out the bottom of it.  

-- A light bulb is shining.  Some distance away, something it's shining on
gets warm, because of the heat energy that has shot across to it from the
light bulb and soaked into it.

-- A lightning bolt jumps from the ground to a passing cloud.  Or, if you feel
more comfortable with it, a lightning bolt jumps from a cloud to the ground.
It doesn't matter.  Either way, there's enough energy splashing around to
ignite houses, zap TVs and computers, melt concrete, vaporize water, and
light up a city.  Although nothing is moving.

How do scientists use inference?
alexgriva [62]
Their inferences are based on evidence that they collect during their investigations. Readers learn that scientists gather and interpret evidence and draw conclusions based on this evidence. ... Once scientists have gathered evidence, they use it to make inferences about the things they are investigating.

Plz help me. I need urgent Why a magnetic compass is used to determine direction? Why a nail gets magnetized when kept close to
docker41 [41]

Answer:

Compasses are mainly used in navigation to find direction on the earth. This works because the Earth itself has a magnetic field which is similar to that of a bar magnet. The compass needle aligns with the Earth's magnetic field direction and points north-south. Also, In a magnet all the domains are oriented in the same direction. In the case of a nail, the domains can be aligned in the same direction causing the nail to become magnetic. That is because if you hang a bar magnet from a thread, the north pole will point to magnetic north. When you bring one north pole close to another north pole they repel each other. You can feel the two magnets pushing each other apart.

An electric drill transfers 200 J of energy into a useful kinetic energy store. It also transfers 44 J of energy by sound and 48
kramer

Answer:

Er = 108 [J]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must understand that the total energy is 200 [J]. Of this energy 44 [J] are lost in sound and 48 [J] are lost in heat. In such a way that these energy values must be subtracted from the total of the kinetic energy.

200 - 44 - 48 = Er

Where:

Er = remaining energy [J]

Er = 108 [J]
