Of the cliff?
Projectile motion
In the problem we are asked to find a height of certain cliff when a motorcycle stunt driver zoom out horizontally at the end the cliff at an initial velocity. So we will use one of the kinematics equation for projectile motion,
y
=
v
o
y
t
+
1
2
g
t
where
v
o
y
is just equal to zero since we can assume that the driver zooms out horizontally,
g
=
9.8
m
/
s

and
t
is time after
B- the acceleration is greater for the more massive rock
Answer:
We show added energy to a system as +Q or -W
Explanation:
The first law of thermodynamics states that, in an isolated system, energy can neither be created nor be destroyed;
Energy is added to the internal energy of a system as either work energy or heat energy as follows;
ΔU = Q - W
Therefore, when energy is added as heat energy to a system, we show the energy as positive Q (+Q), when energy is added to the system in the form of work, we show the energy as minus W (-W).
