When dealing with multiple forces acting on a body, it is advisable to draw a free-body diagram like that shown in the picture. There are four forces acting on the box: weight (W) pointing straight down, normal force perpendicular to the slope denoted as Fn, force used to push the box upwards along the slope and the frictional force acting opposite to the direction of motion of the box denoted as Ff. Frictional force is equal to coefficient of kinetic friction (μk) multiplied with Fn.

∑Fy = Fn - mgcos30° = 0
           Fn = (50)(9.81)(cos 16) = 471.5 N

When in motion, the net force is equal to mass times acceleration according to Newton's 2nd Law of Motion:

Fnet = F - μk*Fn - mgsin30° = ma
          250 - (0.2)(471.5 N) - (50)(sin 16°) = (50)(a)
          a = 2.84 m/s²

What is the change in internal energy of the system (∆U) in a process in which 10 kJ of heat energy is absorbed by the system an
Trava [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

According to first law of thermodynamics:

∆U= q + w

= 10kj+(-70kJ)

-60kJ

, w = + 70 kJ

(work done on the system is positive)

q = -10kJ ( heat is given out, so negative)

∆U = -10 + (+70) = +60 kJ

Thus, the internal energy of the system decreases by 60 kJ.
