Answer:

25J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight of a box = 50N

Height = 0.5m

Unknown:

Work done = ?

Solution:

Work done is the product of the force applied to move a load through a distance.

So;

Work done = weight x height = 50 x 0.5 = 25J

A parallel plate air capacitor has a capacitance of 10 to the power -9. What potential difference is required for a charge of 5×

Maurinko [17]

The potential difference across the capacitor is 5 × 10∧4 volts and the energy stored in it is 1. 25 Joules

<h3>What is the energy in a capacitor?</h3>

The energy stored in a capacitor is an electrostatic potential energy.

It is related to the charge(Q) and voltage (V) between the capacitor plates.

It is represented as 'U'.

<h3>How to determine the potential difference</h3>

Formula:

Potential difference, V is the ratio of the charge to the capacitance of a capacitor.

It is calculated using:

V = Q ÷ C

Where Q = charge 5 × 10∧-5C and C = capacitance 10∧-9

Substitute the values into the equation

Potential difference, V = 5 × 10∧-5 ÷ 10∧-9 = 5 × 10∧4 volts

<h3>How to determine the energy stored</h3>

Formula:

Energy, U = 1 ÷ 2 (QV)

Where Q= charge and V = potential difference across the capacitor

Energy, U = 1 ÷ 2 ( 5 × 10∧-5 × 5 × 10∧4)

= 0.5 × 25 × 10∧-1

= 0.5 × 2.5

= 1. 25 Joules

Therefore, the potential difference across the capacitor is 5 × 10∧4 volts and the energy stored in it is 1. 25 Joules

A 160.-kilogram space vehicle is traveling along a

mario62 [17]

If the object is moving in a straight line at a constant speed, then that's
the definition of zero acceleration. It can only happen when the sum of
all forces (the 'net' force) on the object is zero.

And it doesn't matter what the object's mass is. That argument is true
for specks of dust, battleships, rocks, stars, rock-stars, planets, and
everything in between.

As shown above an adhesive has been applied to contacting faces of two blocks so that the blocks interact with an adhesive force

rusak2 [61]

The magnitude of the adhesive force allows the top block to remain

attached to the bottom when the blocks and the wire are balanced.

The option that must be true is; $\mathbf{W_{bottom} = F_{adhesion}}$
