Answer:
the work done by gravity on the boy is 604.62 J
Explanation:
Given;
distance the boy slides, d = 3 m
angle of inclination of the playground, θ = 40⁰
mass of the boy, m = 32 kg
The vertical height, h, above the ground through which the boy falls represents the height of the triangle which is the opposite side.
The distance through which the boy slides, d, represents the hypotenuse side of the right triangle.
The work done by gravity on the boy is calculated as;
W = P.E = mgh
= 32kg x 9.8m/s² x 1.928m
= 604.62 J
Therefore, the work done by gravity on the boy is 604.62 J
Answer:
the average kinetic energy of water particles - C.
Answer:
C. The change of internal energy of a system is the sum of work and heat spent on it.
Explanation:
The law of conservation of Energy states that energy cannot be destroyed but can only be converted or transformed from one form to another. Therefore, the sum of the initial kinetic energy and potential energy is equal to the sum of the final kinetic energy and potential energy.
Mathematically, it is given by the formula;
Ki + Ui = Kf + Uf .......equation 1
Where;
Ki and Kf are the initial and final kinetic energy respectively.
Ui and Uf are the initial and final potential energy respectively.
The law of conservation of Energy is another way to describe the law of Thermodynamics. It states that the change of internal energy of a system is the sum of work and heat spent on it.
Mathematically, it is given by the formula;
ΔU = Q − W
Where;
ΔU represents the change in internal energy of a system.
Q represents the net heat transfer in and out of the system.
W represents the sum of work (net work) done on or by the system.
(30, 5)
(10, 1)
change of y / change of x
= (30 - 10) / (5 - 1)
= 20 /4
= 5
