Answer:
A) some of the rocks energy is transformed to thermal energy
Explanation:
If we neglect air resistance during the fall of the rock, than the mechanical energy of the rock (which is sum of its potential energy and its kinetic energy) would be constant during the entire motion, so the total energy of the rock at the top would be the same as the sum of its potential energy and kinetic energy at the bottom.
However, this not occurs, due to the presence of air resistance. In fact, air resistance acts against the fall of the rock, and because of the friction between the molecules of air and the surface of the rock, the rock loses part of its energy. This energy is converted into thermal energy of the molecules of the air.

Answer:
The value of change in internal l energy of the gas = 1850 J
Explanation:
Work done on the gas (W) = - 1850 J
Negative sign is due to work done on the system.
From the first law we know that Q = Δ U + W ------------- (1)
Where Q = Heat transfer to the gas
Δ U = Change in internal energy of the gas
W = work done on the gas
Since it is adiabatic compression of the gas so heat transfer to the gas is zero.
⇒ Q = 0
So from equation (1)
⇒ Δ U = - W ----------------- (2)
⇒ W = - 1850 J (Given)
⇒ Δ U = - (- 1850)
⇒ Δ U = + 1850 J
This is the value of change in internal energy of the gas.
Answer:
Part a)

Part b)

Part c)

Explanation:
Part a)
As we know that the friction force on two boxes is given as



Now we know by Newton's II law

so we have




Part b)
For block B we know that net force on it will push it forward with same acceleration so we have




Part c)
If Alex push from other side then also the acceleration will be same
So for box B we can say that Net force is given as




Answer: a) 42Nm b) 8.4m/s
Explanation:
Impulse is defined as object change in momentum.
Since Force = mass × acceleration
F = ma
Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity.
F = m(v-u)/t
Cross multiply
Ft = m(v-u)
Since impulse = Ft
and Ft = m(v-u)... (1)
The object change in velocity (v-u) = Ft/m from eqn 1
Going to the question;
a) Impulse = Force (F) × time(t)
Given force = 14N and time = 3seconds
Impulse = 14×3
Impulse = 42Nm
b) The object change in velocity (v-u) = Ft/m where mass = 5kg
v-u = 14×3/5
Change in velocity = 42/5 = 8.4m/s
