A block of ice at 0 degrees C, whose mass is initially 62 kg, slides along a horizontal surface, starting at a speed of 5.48 m/s

and finally coming to rest after traveling 26.8 m. Compute the mass of ice melted (in grams) as a result of friction between the ice and the horizontal surface

The mass of ice melted as a result of friction between the ice and the horizontal surface is 2.78g

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given,

Temperature, T = 0°C

Initial mass, Mi = 62kg

Speed, s = 5.48m/s

Distance, x = 26.8m

Friction is present.

Mass of ice melted = ?

We know,

The amount of energy required for the melting of ice is exactly equal to the initial kinetic energy of the block of ice

and

            Kinetic Energy, KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Therefore,    KE = \frac{62 X  5.48 X 5.48}{2}

KE = 930.94 Joules

Ice melting lateral heat is  334 kJ/kg = 334000 J/kg.

Therefore, the melted mass of the ice = 930.94 / 334000 = 0.00278 kg = 2.78 g.

Thus, The mass of ice melted as a result of friction between the ice and the horizontal surface is 2.78g

saul85 [17]

10.67m/s²

32N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the body = 3kg

velocity of the mass = 4m/s

radius of circle = 0.75m

Unknown:

centripetal acceleration = ?

centripetal force = ?

Solution:

The centripetal force is the force that keeps a radial body in its circular motion. It is directed inward:

   Centripetal acceleration  = \frac{v^{2} }{r}

   v is the velocity of the body

    r is the radius of the circle

  putting in the parameters:

   Centripetal acceleration = \frac{4^{2} }{0.75}

    Centripetal acceleration = 10.67m/s²

Centripetal force = m  \frac{v^{2} }{r}

          m is the mass

 Centripetal force = mass x centripetal acceleration

                              = 3 x 10.67

                              = 32N

likoan [24]

Answer: 1175 J

Explanation:

Hooke's Law states that "the strain in a solid is proportional to the applied stress within the elastic limit of that solid."

Given

Spring constant, k = 102 N/m

Extension of the hose, x = 4.8 m

from the question, x(f) = 0 and x(i) = maximum elongation = 4.8 m

Work done =

W = 1/2 k [x(i)² - x(f)²]

Since x(f) = 0, then

W = 1/2 k x(i)²

W = 1/2 * 102 * 4.8²

W = 1/2 * 102 * 23.04

W = 1/2 * 2350.08

W = 1175.04

W = 1175 J

Therefore, the hose does a work of exactly 1175 J on the balloon
