A stone of weight 10N falls from the top of a 250m high cliff. a) Calculate how much work is done by the force of gravity in pulling the stone to the foot of the cliff. b) How much energy is transferred to the stone?​

Sagot :

Answer:

work done = ( force × displacement)

(a)The force acting on the block is it's self weight and displacement is equal to height of the tower.

work done by gravity = (250 × 10) = 2500 joule

(b) The work done by gravity 2500 joule is transferred to the object in the form of it's kinetic energy.
