The kinetic energy of a book on a shelf is equal to the work done to lift the book to the shelf. t/f

The given statement is false.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is defined as the energy obtained by an object because of its motion.

For example, moving a pulley on the road.

Whereas energy of an object obtained due to its position is known as potential energy.

For example, lifting a book from table to the shelf shows position of the book has changed.

Therefore, we can conclude that the statement kinetic energy of a book on a shelf is equal to the work done to lift the book to the shelf, is false.

blue light is scattered in different directions by the tiny molecules of air. blue is scattered more than other colours because it has a shorter distance to travel which results in smaller waves. this is why we see a blue sky most of the time.
