A Carnot air conditioner takes energy from the thermal energy of a room at 61°F and transfers it as heat to the outdoors, which

is at 98°F. For each joule of electric energy required to operate the air conditioner, how many joules are removed from the room?

Answer:

<em>14.07 units of joules is removed for each joules of electricity used</em>

Explanation:

The heated room temperature T_{c} = 61 °F

The outside temperature T_{h} = 98 °F

For conversion from fahrenheit to kelvin we use the equation

(32°F − 32) × 5/9 + 273.15

T_{c} = 289.26

T_{h} = 309.82

For air conditioning,

COP = \frac{T_{c} }{T_{h} -T_{c} }

COP = \frac{289.26 }{309.82 -289.26 }  = 14.07

This means that <em>14.07 units of joules is removed for each joules of electricity used</em>

A 0.5 kg basketball moving 5 m/s to the right collides with a 0.05 kg tennis
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

A. 1.4 m/s to the left

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the principle of conservation of momentum. Let's define the velocity signs according to the direction, if the velocity is to the right, a positive sign will be introduced into the equation, if the velocity is to the left, a negative sign will be introduced into the equation. Two moments will be analyzed in this equation. The moment before the collision and the moment after the collision. The moment before the collision is taken to the left of the equation and the moment after the collision to the right, so we have:

M_{before} = M_{after}

where:

M = momentum [kg*m/s]

M = m*v

where:

m = mass [kg]

v = velocity [m/s]

(m_{1} *v_{1} )-(m_{2} *v_{2})=(m_{1} *v_{3} )+(m_{2} *v_{4})

where:

m1 = mass of the basketball = 0.5 [kg]

v1 = velocity of the basketball before the collision = 5 [m/s]

m2 = mass of the tennis ball = 0.05 [kg]

v2 = velocity of the tennis ball before the collision = - 30 [m/s]

v3 =  velocity of the basketball after the collision [m/s]

v4 = velocity of the tennis ball after the collision = 34 [m/s]

Now replacing and solving:

(0.5*5) - (0.05*30) = (0.5*v3) + (0.05*34)

1 - (0.05*34) = 0.5*v3

- 0.7 = 0.5*v

v = - 1.4 [m/s]

The negative sign means that the movement is towards left

what equastion do you use to solve Riders in a carnival ride stand with their backs against the wall of a circular room of diame
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

μsmín = 0.1

Explanation:

  • There are three external forces acting on the riders, two in the vertical direction that oppose each other, the force due to gravity (which we call weight) and the friction force.
  • This friction force has a maximum value, that can be written as follows:

       F_{frmax} = \mu_{s} *F_{n} (1)

       where  μs is the coefficient of static friction, and Fn is the normal force,

       perpendicular to the wall and aiming to the center of rotation.

  • This force is the only force acting in the horizontal direction, but, at the same time, is the force that keeps the riders rotating, which is the centripetal force.
  • This force has the following general expression:

       F_{c} =  m* \omega^{2} * r (2)

       where ω is the angular velocity of the riders, and r the distance to the

      center of rotation (the  radius of the circle), and m the mass of the

      riders.

      Since Fc is actually Fn, we can replace the right side of (2) in (1), as

      follows:

     F_{frmax} = m* \mu_{s} * \omega^{2} * r (3)

  • When the riders are on the verge of sliding down, this force must be equal to the weight Fg, so we can write the following equation:

       m* g = m* \mu_{smin} * \omega^{2} * r (4)

  • (The coefficient of static friction is the minimum possible, due to any value less than it would cause the riders to slide down)
  • Cancelling the masses on both sides of (4), we get:

       g = \mu_{smin} * \omega^{2} * r (5)

  • Prior to solve (5) we need to convert ω from rev/min to rad/sec, as follows:

      60 rev/min * \frac{2*\pi rad}{1 rev} *\frac{1min}{60 sec} =6.28 rad/sec (6)

  • Replacing by the givens in (5), we can solve for μsmín, as follows:

       \mu_{smin} = \frac{g}{\omega^{2} *r}  = \frac{9.8m/s2}{(6.28rad/sec)^{2} *2.5 m} =0.1 (7)

A competitive go-cart driver is traveling 32 m/s. He sees a caution flag go up, so he slows at a rate of -1.5 m/s^2 in 10.8 s. W
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

15.8 m/s

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Initial velocity (u) = 32 m/s.

Acceleration (a) = – 1.5 m/s²

Time (t) = 10.8 s.

Final velocity (v) =?

Acceleration is simply defined as the rate of change of velocity with time. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Acceleration (a) = [final velocity (v) – initial velocity (u)] / time (t)

a = (v – u) /t

With the above formula, we can obtain the final velocity of go-cart driver as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 32 m/s.

Acceleration (a) = – 1.5 m/s²

Time (t) = 10.8 s.

Final velocity (v) =?

a = (v – u) /t

– 1.5 = (v – 32) / 10.8

Cross multiply

(v – 32) = –1.5 × 10.8

v – 32 = – 16.2

Collect like terms

v = – 16.2 + 32

v = 15.8 m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of go-cart driver is 15.8 m/s.

You are an employee of the city of Chicago. A city official declares that all cables holding traffic lights in the city should b
Irina18 [472]
  If you have ever lived in Chicago, then the answer might very well be C. 
Newton's Second law states F = ma. This problem has nothing to do with acceleration. 
Newton's Third law is the familiar action/reaction law. If the poles are anchored well enough and have a flexural strength greater than the tension exerted on them by the wire; then D is just.
That leaves B. There's no problem all we have to do is to increase the horizontal tension in the cable.
