Answer:
9.8 Joules (rounded to 2 significant figures)
Explanation:
Work done (J)= Force(N) x distance changed (m)
- Force= 9.80665 x 0.5kg
- Force= 4.90332 Newtons
- Distance changed= 5-3
- distance changed= 2m/s
--> work done= 4.90332 x 2
work done= 9.8 Joules
Answer: D.
Explanation: Just took the quiz.
Adhesive.
Adhesive is the force of attraction between molecules of different kind. Liquid flows upward the wick because the adhesive force between the wick and the liquid is higher than cohesive forces in the liquid.
When the adhesive force between the wick and the liquid is high we have capillarity taking place. This cause the liquid to move up the wick.
Answer: 2940 J
Explanation: solution attached:
PE= mgh
Substitute the values:
PE= 10kg x 9.8 m/s² x 30 m
= 2940 J
