Breaking down sugar (glucose) is a chemical change. Sugar is a compound that can be broken down.

In your body, "break down sugar" doesn't mean grind up the crystals
into powder, and if it did, you couldn't do it with oxygen, you'd need
a hammer or a grinder.

"Break down sugar" means take a molecule of sucrose or lactose or fructose,
use oxygen to rip it apart, and then put the pieces back together as a molecule
of glucose.

It should be pretty obvious that this is a chemical change.

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

B. 17.15 watts

Explanation:

Given that

Time = 10 seconds

height = distance = 0.7 meters

weight of sack = mg = F = 245 newtons

Power = work done/ time taken

Where work done = force × distance

Substituting the given parameters into the formula

Work done = 245 newton × 0.7 meters

Work done = 171.5 J

Recall,

Power = work done/time

Power = 171.5 J ÷ 10

Power = 17.15 watts

Hence the power expended is B. 17.15 watts
