Work is measured in:
horsepower |
|
watts |
|
amps |
|
joules or newton-meters |
Work is performed on an object when an applied force causes displacement along the same vector. Measured in joules (J) or newton-meters (Nm), work is calculated by multiplying force times displacement: \(W = \vec{F}\vec{d}\)

Which of the following is not a characteristic of the Sun?
is composed of hydrogen and helium |
|
makes up over 99% of the mass of the solar system |
|
formed 2.6 billion years ago |
|
is a yellow dwarf star |
The Sun is a G-type main-sequence star (G2V) but is informally known as a yellow dwarf star. Composed of 73% hydrogen and 25% helium, the hot plasma that makes up the Sun reaches 9,900°F (5,505°C) at the surface. It formed approximately 4.6 billion years ago and makes up 99.86% of the mass in the solar system.
When the clouds become too saturated with water, the water is released as precipitation in the form of:
ice |
|
snow |
|
snow or ice |
|
rain |
Rising into the atmosphere, the water condenses into clouds. When the clouds become too saturated with water, the water is released as snow or ice precipitation which may warm as it falls to reach Earth as rain.
