A 27 kg bear slides, from rest, 14 m down a lodgepole pine tree, moving with a speed of 6.1 m/s just before hitting the ground.

(a) What change occurs in the gravitational potential energy of the bear-Earth system during the slide? (b) What is the kinetic energy of the bear just before hitting the ground? (c) What is the average frictional force that acts on the sliding bear?

<h2>Thus the force of friction is 235 N</h2>

Explanation:

When the bear was at the height of 14 m . Its potential energy = m g h

here m is the mass of bear , g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the height .

Thus P.E =  27 x 10 x 14 = 3780 J

The K.E of the bear just before hitting = \frac{1}{2} m v²

=   \frac{1}{2} x 27 x ( 6.1 )²  = 490 J

The force of friction f = P.E - K.E = 3290 J

Because the work done = Force x Distance

Thus frictional force = \frac{3290}{14} = 235 N

The specific heat capacity of sea water is 4100 J/Kg°C and the boiling point of 100.6 °C. (i) Calculate the energy required to r
maw [93]

Answer:

334.314 (kJ)

Explanation:

1) the formula for the required energy is: Q=c*m(Bp-t), where c - 4100 J/kg*C; m - 0.9 kg; Bp - 100.6 C; t - 10 C.

2) according to the formula above:

Q=4100*0.9*(100.6-10)=41*9*906=334314 (J).

Answer:

TDR means Timeout Detection and Recovery.

Explanation:

TDR is a feature of the Windows operating system which detects response problems from a graphics card, and recovers to a functional desktop by resetting the card. If the operating system does not receive a response from a graphics card within a certain amount of time (default is 2 seconds), the operating system resets the graphics card.
