Three mountain climbers set out to climb a mountain from the same altitude and all arrive at the same location at the top. Mount

ain climber A took a long gradual slope to the top, B went a steeper but shorter path, and C tackled the sheer straight side to the top. Assume all three climbers have the same mass. Which climber gained the greatest potential energy?A. AB. BC. CD. all did the same amount of work

Answer:All did same amount of work

Explanation:

All three mountain climbers took different routes to reach the peak. There is a constant gravity force acting on the object i.e. gravity force. Gravity force is conservative i.e. work done by a conservative force is independent of the path followed.

Therefore work done by all the mountain climbers is the same i.e. all did the same amount of work.

A bubble, located 0.200 m beneath the surface in a glass of beer, rises to the top. The air pressure at the top is 1.01 ???? 10
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

the ratio of the bubble’s volume at the top to its volume at the bottom is 1.019

Explanation:

given information

h = 0.2 m

P_{0} = 1.01  x 10^{5} Pa

P_{1} V_{1} = P_{2} V_{2}

\frac{V_{2} }{V_{1}} = \frac{P_{1} }{P_{2}}

P_{1}  = P_{0}  + ρgh, ρ = 1000 kg/m^{3}

P_{1}  = 1.01 x 10^{5} Pa + (1000 x 9.8 x 0.2) = 1,0296 x 10^{5} Pa

P_{2}  = P_{0}  = 10^{5} Pa

thus,

\frac{V_{2} }{V_{1}} = 1,0296 x [tex]10^{5}/10^{5} = 1.019

A 1,100 kg car is traveling initially 20 m/s when the brakes are applied. The brakes apply a constant force while bringing the c
Natalka [10]

Answer:

Work done = -220,000 Joules.

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Mass = 1100kg

Initial velocity = 20m/s

To find workdone, we would calculate the kinetic energy possessed by the car.

Kinetic energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its motion.

Mathematically, kinetic energy is given by the formula;

K.E = \frac{1}{2}MV^{2}

Where,

  • K.E represents kinetic energy measured in Joules.
  • M represents mass measured in kilograms.
  • V represents velocity measured in metres per seconds square.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

K.E = \frac{1}{2}*1100*20^{2}

K.E = 550*400

K.E = 220,000J

Therefore, the workdone to bring the car to rest would be -220,000 Joules because the braking force is working to oppose the motion of the car.
