A 16.0 kg crate increases in height from 1.80 m to 3.30 m above the floor. The increase in potential energy is 240 J (a).
<h3>What is potential energy?</h3>
It is the energy due to the position.
A 16.0 kg (m) crate rests on a shelf 1.80 m (h₁) above the floor in a warehouse. The potential energy is:
U₁ = m × g × h₁ = 16.0 kg × (9.81 m/s²) × 1.80 m = 283 J
A forklift is used to raise the crate to a shelf 3.30 m (h₂) above the warehouse floor. The potential energy is:
U₂ = m × g × h₂ = 16.0 kg × (9.81 m/s²) × 3.30 m = 518 J
The increase in the potential energy is:
518 J - 283 J = 235 J ≈ 240 J

Answer:
When a switch is closed, electrons move through a circuit from the negative side of a battery to the positive side
Explanation:
Note that current is marked to flow from positive to negative on circuit diagrams, but that's for historical reasons only. Benjamin Franklin did a fabulous job of understanding what was going on, but no one yet knew about protons & electrons, so he assumed current was flowing from positive to negative.
However, what really happens is electrons flow from negative (where they repel each other) to positive (where they are attracted).
As electrons flow through a circuit, they need 'something to do'. In many cases, that something is to light a bulb or heat an element, such as an element on a stove. So, the energy of an electron can be converted to heat or light.

A
Explanation:
A disadvantage is that sexual reproduction takes longer than asexual reproduction. A mate must be found, the egg must be fertilised by sperm, and then the offspring develop. ... This means that some individuals would survive and be able to reproduce and generate more offspring.
Answer:
This is not a question, but a statement. The concept that the work done is equal to the input work on a simple machine is called ideal machine. An ideal machine has 100% efficiency which means that there is no loss. All the amount of input work is equal to the useful output of the machine.

Answer:
S=48.29 m
Explanation:
Given that the height of the hill h = 2.9 m
Coefficient of kinetic friction between his sled and the snow μ = 0.08
Let u be the speed of the skier at the bottom of the hill.
By applying conservation of energy at the top and bottom of the inclined plane we get.
Potential Energy=kinetic Energy
mgh = (1/2) mu²
u² = 2gh
u²=2(9.81)(2.9)
=56.89
u=7.54 m/s
a = - f / m
a = - μ*m*g / m
a = - μg
From equation of motion
v²- u² = 2 -μ g S
v=0 m/s
-(7.54)²=-2(0.06)(9.81)S
S=48.29 m
