Gravitational potential energy = mgh or mass times acceleration due to gravity times the height

Here the mass is 0.25kg, the height is 10m, and gravity is 9.8m/s^2 so...

GPE = (0.25)(10)(9.8)

GPE = 24.5 J

How much work does it take to lift 345 boxes to a height of 6.00 m of each box has a mass of 7.89 kg
Art [367]

Given the value of the mass of each boxes, the work done in lifting the boxes to the given height is 1.6 × 10⁵J.

<h3>Work done</h3>

Work done is simply defined as the energy transfer that takes place when an object is either pushed or pulled over a certain distance by an external force. It is expressed as;

W = F × d

Where F is force applied or Weight and d is distance

Also Force = Weight = mass × acceleration due to gravity.

Since gravity is acting on the boxes as it been lift

W = Weight × height from ground level

W = mg × d

Where m is mass of the boxes, g is accelration due to gravity( g = 9.8m/s² ) and d is distance from ground level.

Given the data in the question;

  • Since each box has a mass of 7.89 kg
  • Mass of the 345 boxes = 345 × 7.89 kg = 2722.05kg
  • Distance or height d = 6.0m
  • Work done W = ?

To determine the work done, we substitute our values into the expression above.

W = mg × d

W = 2722.05kg × 9.8m/s² × 6.0m

W = 160056.5kgm²/s²

W = 160056.5J

W = 1.6 × 10⁵J

Therefore,  Given the value of the mass of each boxes, the work done in lifting the boxes to the given height is 1.6 × 10⁵J.

the gravitational force between the sun and earth is larger than sun and the moon. what do you think the reason for this is?
Tems11 [23]

Answer: The greater an object's mass, the more gravitational force it exerts.

Explanation: So, to begin answering your question, Earth has a greater gravitational pull than the moon simply because the Earth is more massive. Sorry if I get this wrong. I am in 5th grade! ♥

Object A is positively charged. Object A and Object B
ozzi

Answer: object B is negatively charged, object C is positively charged and object D is also positively charged

Explanation: since unlike charges attract and like charges repel, for object A which is positively charged and B to attract B must be negatively charged and then for B which is negatively charged and C to attract C must be positively charged and for C and D to repel they have to be of thesame charge which means D is positive as well.
