No, according to physics no work has been done.

Work must have been done by muscular force but in terms of physics no work has been done.

In physics,work is said to be done only if the force applied produced some kind of displacement in the direction of force.

In this example provided, no work has been done since the boulder doesn't get displaced,it continues to remain at its original position.

Hope This Helps You!

A 5 mL sample of an unknown liquid is placed into a 250 mL flask that has had all of the air removed. The pressure measured in t
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

In this case, we can use the Boyle's law. Assuming that the temperature of both trial remains constant, then:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂    (1)

You should note that this expression is usable when you are dealing with gases. However, we can treat this unknown liquid as a gas, because all the air on the flask is removed, and we can assume that the liquid can behave like an ideal gas.

So using the above expression, we can solve for P₂:

P₂ = P₁V₁ / V₂    (2)

In this case, we already have the values of presures and volume, so replacing in this expression:

P₂ = 34.5 * 5 / 214

<h2>P₂ = 0.806 kPa</h2>

This should be the pressure of the liquid.

Hope this helps
