I beleive she isnt doing any work due to holding the box motionless, you must be exerting a force in the direction of the box motion. If she is just standing there holding the box their isn't no work becuase no distance has been covered. work = force = distance.

An airplane is flying 340 km/hr at 12o east of north. the wind is blowing 40 km/hr at 34o south of east. what is the plane's act
seropon [69]
Define an x-y coordinate system such that
The positive x-axis = the eastern direction, with unit vector  \hat{i}.
The positive y-axis = the northern direction, with unit vector \hat{j}.

The airplane flies at 340 km/h at 12° east of north. Its velocity vector is
\vec{v}_{1} = 340(sin(15^{o})\hat{i} + cos(15^{o})\hat{j} ) = 88\hat{i} + 328.4\hat{j}

The wind blows at 40 km/h in the direction 34° south of east. Its velocity vector is
\vec{v}_{2} =40(cos(34^{o})\hat{i} - sin(24^{o})]\hat{j}) = 33.1615\hat{i} -22.3677\hat{j})

The plane's actual velocity is the vector sum of the two velocities. It is
\vec{v}=\vec{v}_{1}+\vec{v}_{2} = 121.1615\hat{i}+306.0473\hat{j}

The magnitude of the actual velocity is
v = √(121.1615² + 306.0473²) = 329.158 km/h

The angle that the velocity makes north of east is
tan⁻¹ (306.04733/121.1615) = 21.6°

Answer:
The actual velocity is 329.2 km/h at 21.6° north of east.

1. Describe the motion of the race car shown in the graphic
zmey [24]

The car will slow down due to the negative acceleration (backward)

Explanation:

The figure is missing: find it in attachment.

To answer this question, we have to use Newton's second law, which states that:

F=ma

where

F is the net force on an object

m is its mass

a is its acceleration

We have to apply this law separately on the horizontal direction and vertical direction.

- In the vertical direction, we have two forces acting on the car: 2000 N upward and 2000 N downward, so they cancel out, and the net force in the vertical direction is zero.

- In the horizontal direction, the net force is instead

F=6000 N - 8000 N = -2000 N

In the backward direction (to the right).

So, according to Newton's second law, the car will experience a horizontal acceleration:

a=\frac{F}{m}= -\frac{2000 N}{m}

And the acceleration has the same direction as the net force (so, backward). This means that the acceleration is opposite to the direction of motion of the car, so the car will slow down, since its velocity will decrease.

Sobre un gas contenido en un cilindro provisto de un pistón se realiza un trabajo de 7000 Joules, mediante un proceso isotérmico
natita [175]

Answer:

En un proceso isotérmico, es decir, la temperatura no cambia, el trabajo puede escribirse como:

W = n*R*T*Ln(P1/P2)

Donde P1 es la presión inicial y P2 la presión final.

Donde las cantidades:

n =  número de moles

R = constante de los gases ideales

T = temperatura no cambian.

Y sabemos que la ecuación de la energía interna es:

U = C*n*R*T

Donde C es otra constante que depende del gas.

De aca, podemos concluir que ninguna de estas variables cambia en nuestro proceso, por lo que la variación de la energía interna es cero.

U2 - U1 = 0

b) Para el calor cedido o absorbido, la formula básica es:

ΔQ = C*(T2 - T1)

Donde ΔQ es el calor absorbido o cedido por el gas, C es una constante que depende del gas, T2 es la temperatura final del gas y T1 es la temperatura inicial del gas.

Como la temperatura no cambia en el proceso, entonces:

T2 = T1

ΔQ = C*(T2 - T1) = C*0 = 0

No hay calor absorbido ni cedido.

c) Podemos concluir que en un proceso isotérmico la energía interna no cambia, y no hay un intercambio de calor.
