Answer:

There is no work done.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 10 kg

To find the work done?

In Physics, work done can be defined as the amount of energy transfered when an object or body is moved over a distance due to the action of an external force.

Mathematically, work done is given by the formula;

Work done = force * distance

$W = F * d$

Where,

W is the work done

F represents the force acting on a body.

d represents the distance covered by the body.

However, the weight suspended in the air by a strong cable does not move or experience any form of displacement. Therefore, there is no work done.

The ______ or _______ of matter depends on how much the particles are moving, which depends on the amount of kinetic energy the

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

Temperature or thermal energy.

Explanation:

Conduction involves the transfer of electric charge or thermal energy due to the movement of particles. When the conduction relates to electric charge, it is known as electrical conduction while when it relates to thermal energy, it is known as heat conduction.

In the process of heat conduction, thermal energy is usually transferred from fast moving particles to slow moving particles during the collision of these particles. Also, thermal energy is typically transferred between objects that has different degrees of temperature and materials (particles) that are directly in contact with each other but differ in their ability to accept or give up electrons.

Hence, the temperature or thermal energy of matter depends on how much the particles are moving, which depends on the amount of kinetic energy the particles possess.

A light year is defined as the distance that light can travel in 1 year. What is the value of 1 light year in meter? Show your c

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

d=9.462×10^15 meters

Explanation:

Relation between distance, temps and velocity:

d=v*t

t=1year*(365days/1year)*/(24hours/1day)*(3600s/1h)=31536000s

So:

1 light year=d=3*10^8m/s*3.154*10^7s=9.462×10^15 meters

what is the potential energy of the ball when it gets to its maximum height just before falling back to the ground

love history [14]

Answer:

I will say that the the potential energy will be at its maximum.

Explanation:

potential energy deals with gravity and gravity deals with height, so when a object is in its maximum height it will have the maximum potential energy.
