Answer:

Explanation:

Remark

The only thing that might trip you up is what to do with the angle. The vertical component of the 15 degrees does no work against anything. So the 15 degrees limits the horizontal force.

The formula is

Work = F * d * cos(15)

The givens are

F = 2000 N

d = 30 m

Cos(15) = 0.9659

Solution

Work = 2000 * 30 * cos(15)

Work = 57,955

Rounded to two places would be 5.8 * 10^4

A ball is thrown up into the air with 100 j of kinetic energy, which is transformed to gravitational potential energy at the top
xenn [34]

The kinetic energy when it returns to its original height is 100 J

The ball is thrown up with a Kinetic Energy K. E. = 0.5×m×v² = 100 J

Therefore the final height is given by

u² = v² -2·g·s

Where:

u = final velocity = 0

v = initial velocity

s = final height

Therefore v² = 2·g·s = 19.62·s

P.E = Potential Energy = m·g·s

Since v² = 2·g·s

Substituting the value of v² in the kinetic energy formula, we obtain

K. E. = 0.5×m×2·g·s = m·g·s = P.E. = 100 J

When the ball returns to the original height, we have

v² = u² + 2·g·s

Since u = 0 = initial velocity in this case we have

v² = 2·g·s and the Kinetic energy = 0.5·m·v²

Since m and s are the same then 0.5·m·v² = 100 J.

What happens to water in the atmosphere as it rises?
Lunna [17]
The correct answer is that water, as it rises in the atmosphere, condenses and forms clouds - the correct answer is b.

Other options are false, for example:
a. It evaporates.
-this is the beginning of the process: water needs to evaporate to be in the atmosphere - so it's before the process that the question addresses

Also it is not used up: otherwise Earth would run out of water.
