1. A mass is on a level plane, it has a weight of 20N. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction if an applied force
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

0.4

Explanation:

F-Fr=ma where F is applied force, Fr is friction, m is mass and a is acceleration.

Since the mass is moving with a constant velocity, there's no acceleration hence

F=Fr=\mu N where N is the weight of object and \mu is coefficient of kinetic friction.

F=\mu N and making [tex]\mu the subject

\mu=\frac {F}{N}

Substituting F for 8 N and N for 20 N

\mu=\frac {8}{20}=0.4

Therefore, coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.4

What is the gravitational potential energy of a 0.550-kg projectile flying with 335 m/s, 72 meters above the ground?
Fofino [41]

Answer:

GPE = 388.08 Joules.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 0.550kg

Speed = 335 m/s

Height = 72 meters

We know that acceleration due to gravity, g is equal to 9.8 m/s²

To find the gravitational potential energy;

Gravitational potential energy (GPE) is an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position above the earth.

Mathematically, gravitational potential energy is given by the formula;

G.P.E = mgh

Where;

G.P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

G.P.E = 0.550 * 9.8 * 72

GPE = 388.08 Joules.

Jin knows that the initial internal energy of a closed system is 78 J and the final internal energy is 180 J. He also knows that
lawyer [7]

As we know by the first law of thermodynamics

Q = \Delta U + W

here we know that

Q = heat given to the system

\Delta U = U_f - U_i

W = work done by the system

now here we can say

\Delta U = 180 - 78 = 102 J

W = 64 J

now we can say that heat will be given as

Q = 64 + 102 = 166 J

now here we can say that Jin does the error in his first step while calculation of change in internal energy as he had to subtract it while he added the two energy

So best describe Jin's Error is

<em>B )For step 1, he should have subtracted 78 J from 180 J to find the change in internal energy. </em>
