A block of concrete has a mass of 48kg a crane lifts the block to a height of 12m above the ground calculate the gravitational potential energy stored by the block (gravitational field strength g=10N/kg)

5760 J

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass of block = 48 kg

Height (h) = 12 m

Gravitational field strength (g) = 10 N/Kg

Gravitational potential energy (PE) =?

The gravitational potential energy stored by the block can simply be obtained as follow:

PE = mgh

PE = 48 × 10 × 12

PE = 5760 J

Therefore, the gravitational potential energy stored by the block is 5760 J

the answer is horst.

explanation:

in physical geography and geology, a horst is a raised fault block bounded by normal faults. a horst is a raised block of the earth's crust that has lifted, or has remained stationary, while the land on either side has subsided. the word horst in dutch and german means heap – cognate with english "hurst".

freezing

deposition

condensation

explanation;

melting also called fusion is the process where solid becomes liquid, sublimation is the process where solid becomes gaseous without first changing to liquid, deposition involves change from gaseous to solid state, freezing involves change from liquid to solid, boiling or evaporation involves change of liquid to gaseous state, while condensation is the change from gaseous state to liquid state.

endothermic reactions involves absorption of heat from the surroundings or the environment while exothermic reactions involves loss of heat energy to the surroundings.

in this case, sublimation, evaporation and melting are endothermic reactions (gain energy from the environment) while, freezing, deposition and condensation are exothermic (loss of energy to the surroundings) reactions.
