People who have been struck by lightning do not carry an electrical charge and can be touched is True.
heat lightning is lightning flashes in the sky that do not have the accompanying sound of thunder so false just like the others
The correct answer as the first one above !
<u>Yes, work is done when a book falls of the table.</u>
This is because:
When the book falls, it's potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. As it reaches the floor down, this kinetic energy is converted to heat energy and sound energy due to the impact.
When a force is imposed on an object to cause displacement of that object, work is done on that object. For a force to do work on an object, there should be a displacement and this force should cause the displacement. So here, since the book falls from the table and causes the displacement of the book from the table to the floor. It is said that work is done.
Work can be given by the formula:
W = F • d
where F is the force and d is the displacement.
