What is energy converted to if it is not used to do work?

Physics

Romashka [77]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

the human body isn't very efficient at converting food into useful work. The human body is less than 5% efficient most of the time. The rest of the energy is converted to heat, which may or may not be useful, depending on how cool or warm a person wants to be.

In which situation is work not being done?
almond37 [142]

AS

work done =W = F.d = F d cosФ     (Ф is angle between force F and displacement d) If a body/object is moving on a smooth surface (friction-less surface ) .There is no force acting on that body.  F=0 so W=FdcosФ= (0)dcosФ ⇒ W=0

Now if a body is facing some amount of force but under the action of force there is no displacement covered. d=0 so W =FdcosФ= F(0)cosФ ⇒W=0

example:  A person is applying a force on rigid wall but wall remains at rest there is no displacement occurs in wall.

The third term upon which work done  dependent is angle between force and displacement i.e Ф. If Ф=90° then W= FdcosФ= Fdcos90⇒ W=0   ( as cos 90°=0)

Express the kinetic energy K in terms of the potential energy U.<br><br><br> K=GMm/2R
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

K = -½U

Explanation:

From Newton's law of gravitation, the formula for gravitational potential energy is;

U = -GMm/R

Where,

G is gravitational constant

M and m are the two masses exerting the forces

R is the distance between the two objects

Now, in the question, we are given that kinetic energy is;

K = GMm/2R

Re-rranging, we have;

K = ½(GMm/R)

Comparing the equation of kinetic energy to that of potential energy, we can derive that gravitational kinetic energy can be expressed in terms of potential energy as;

K = -½U

The angular momentum of a flywheel having a rotational inertia of 0.140 kg ·m2 about its central axis decreases from 3.00 to 0.8
Rasek [7]

Answer

given,

I = 0.140 kg ·m²

decrease from 3.00 to 0.800 kg ·m²/s in 1.50 s.

a) \tau = \dfrac{\Delta L}{\Delta t}

   \tau = \dfrac{0.8-3}{1.5}

        τ = -1.467 N m

b) angle at which fly wheel will turn

   \theta= \omega t +\dfrac{1}{2}\alpha t^2

   \theta= \dfrac{L}{I} t +\dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{\tau}{I}t^2

   \theta= \dfrac{3}{0.14}\times 1.5+\dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{-1.467}{0.14}\times 1.5^2

        θ = 20.35 rad

c) work done on the wheel

     W = τ x θ

     W = -1.467 x 20.35 rad

    W = -29.86 J

d) average power of wheel

    P_{av} =-\dfrac{W}{t}

    P_{av} =-\dfrac{(-29.86)}{1.5}

     P_{av} =19.91\ W
