Calculate the mass of wood that has the same energy as 1 g of oil

Physics

2.3 grams of wood has the same energy as 1g of oil.

The majority of wood and wood waste used as fuel in the United States is used by industry. Manufacturers of paper and wood products are the biggest industrial users. They produce steam and electricity from waste from paper and lumber mills, which saves money by lowering the number of other fuels and electricity they need to buy to run their facilities.

There are numerous power plants that primarily burn wood to produce electricity in the electric power sector, and some coal-burning power plants burn wood chips along with coal to cut down on sulfur dioxide emissions. The primary purpose of wood consumption in the business sector is heating.

If there were no external forces acting on the two pucks, their complex motion could be described as the combination of the unif
mote1985 [20]

The absence of external forces will make the pucks move in the form of a uniform circular motion.

<h3>What is a circular motion?</h3>

It should be noted that a circular motion simply means the movement of an object along the circumference of the circle.

In this case, the absence of external forces will make the pucks move in the form of a uniform circular motion.

If the friction is absent, the pucks will continue to move on the same path due to the first law of Newton and the law of conversation of energy. In this case,the results will match the predictions until there's loss in energy.

lisabon 2012 [21]
<span>Because P = W ÷ t, and W = F*t, you can substitute (W) for (F*t). Then substitute (F) for (m*a). This will leave you with P = (m*a*d)/t. Since you need velocity, youd want to solve for a so you can use v = a*t. a = (P*t)/(m*d) therefore, substituting a in v = a*t, v = (P*t*t)/(m*d)</span>

15. A body moving with a velocity of 20 m/s begins to accelerate at 3 m/s2. How far does the body move in 5 seconds? A. 137.5 m
Rudik [331]

Answer is B. According to the equation of motion s = vt + 1/2 at2 Where s is distance covered, v is velocity, a is acceleration and t is time taken. So, by putting all the values, we get s = (20)(5) + 1/2 (3)(5)2 s = 100 + 1/2 (3)(25) s = 100 + 1/2 75 s = 100 + 37.5 s = 137.5 meters

You have a 3.00-liter container filled with N₂ at 25°C and 4.45 atm pressure connected to a 2.00-liter container filled with Ar
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer : The final pressure in the two containers is, 2.62 atm

Explanation :

Boyle's Law : It is defined as the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

P\propto \frac{1}{V}

Thus, the expression for final pressure in the two containers will be:

PV=P_1V_1+P_2V_2

P=\frac{P_1V_1+P_2V_2}{V}

where,

P_1 = pressure of N₂ gas = 4.45 atm

P_2 = pressure of Ar gas = 2.75 atm

V_1 = volume of N₂ gas = 3.00 L

V_2 = volume of Ar gas = 2.00 L

P = final pressure of gas = ?

V = final volume of gas = (4.45 + 2.75) L = 7.2 L

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

P=\frac{(4.45atm)\times (3.00L)+(2.75atm)\times (2.00L)}{7.2L}

P=2.62atm

Thus, the final pressure in the two containers is, 2.62 atm

A 4.79 g bullet moving at 642.3 m/s penetrates a tree trunk to a depth of 4.35 cm. Use work and energy considerations to find th
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Force, F=2.27\times 10^4\ N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the bullet, m = 4.79 g = 0.00479 kg

Initial speed of the bullet, u = 642.3 m/s

Distance, d = 4.35 cm = 0.0435 m

To find,

The magnitude of force required to stop the bullet.

Solution,

The work energy theorem states that the work done is equal to the change in its kinetic energy. Its expression is given by :

F.d=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)

Finally, it stops, v = 0

F.d=-\dfrac{1}{2}m(u^2)

F=\dfrac{-mu^2}{2d}

F=\dfrac{-0.00479\times (642.3)^2}{2\times 0.0435}

F = -22713.92 N

F=2.27\times 10^4\ N

So, the magnitude of the force that stops the bullet is 2.27\times 10^4\ N
