Answer:

(a) 7.72×10⁵ J

(b) 4000 J

(c) 1.82×10⁻¹⁶ J

Explanation:

Kinetic Energy: This can be defined energy of a body due to its motion. The expression for kinetic energy is given as,

Ek = 1/2mv²................... Equation 1

Where Ek = Kinetic energy, m = mass, v = velocity

(a)

For a moving automobile,

Ek = 1/2mv².

Given: m = 2.0×10³ kg, v = 100 km/h = 100(1000/3600) m/s = 27.78 m/s

Substitute into equation 1

Ek = 1/2(2.0×10³)(27.78²)

Ek = 7.72×10⁵ J

(b)

For a sprinting runner,

Given: m = 80 kg, v = 10 m/s

Substitute into equation 1 above,

Ek = 1/2(80)(10²)

Ek = 40(100)

Ek = 4000 J

(c)

For a moving electron,

Given: m = 9.10×10⁻³¹ kg, v = 2.0×10⁷ m/s

Substitute into equation 1 above,

Ek = 1/2(9.10×10⁻³¹)(2.0×10⁷)²

Ek = 1.82×10⁻¹⁶ J

Describes the first law of thermodynamics
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

Thermodynamics is usually defined as a branch of physics that deals with the study of the heat and various form of energy, and their interaction between the.

The first law says that heat appears as energy, and it cannot be produced and also cannot be demolished. It can only change from one form to another. This signifies that the total amount of energy present in the universe remains constant.

This first law can be mathematically represented as:

ΔU = Q - W

where ΔU = Changes occurring in the internal energy

              Q = amount of heat added to the system

              W = Amount of work done by the system

A satellite at a particular point along an elliptical orbit has a gravitational potential energy of 4700 MJ with respect to Eart
erastovalidia [21]

during satellite motion we know that total energy is always conserved

so here we will have

KE_i + PE_i = KE_f + PE_f

here we know that

KE_i = 4800 MJ

PE_i = 4700 MJ

now at other position

PE_f = 6000 MJ

now from above equation we have

4800 +4700 = 6000 + KE

now we have

9500 = 6000 + KE

KE = 9500 - 6000 = 3500 MJ

so its kinetic energy will be 3500 MJ

If an automobile battery is rated at 20 ampere-hours, what is the maximum current that can be supplied for 19 minutes?
Elenna [48]
20Ah is the number of charge that can be supplied at 20A for 1 hour. If you wish to drain it in 19 minutes, then the current is:
20*60 = A_{2}*19
A_{2}=63.2A
