The concept required to solve this problem is linked to inductance. This can be defined as the product between the permeability in free space by the number of turns squared by the area over the length. Recall that Inductance is defined as the opposition of a conductive element to changes in the current flowing through it. Mathematically it can be described as
Here,
= Permeability at free space
N = Number of loops
A = Cross-sectional Area
l = Length
Replacing with our values we have,
Therefore the Inductance is
The general formula to calculate the work is:
where F is the force, d is the displacement of the couch, and is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement. Let's apply this formula to the different parts of the problem.
(a) Work done by you: in this case, the force applied is parallel to the displacement of the couch, so and , therefore the work is just equal to the product between the horizontal force you apply to push the couch and the distance the couch has been moved:
(b) work done by the frictional force: the frictional force has opposite direction to the displacement, therefore and . Therefore, we must include a negative sign when we calculate the work done by the frictional force:
(c) The work done by gravity is zero. In fact, gravity (which points downwards) is perpendicular to the displacement of the couch (which is horizontal), therefore and : this means
.
(d) Work done by the net force:
The net force is the difference between the horizontal force applied by you and the frictional force:
And the net force is in the same direction of the displacement, so and and the work done is
It is a stretch of the atmosphere ranging from the upper mesosphere to the lower parts of the thermosphere. It’s useful to us in radio communication.
The given data is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.
At an accident scene on a level road, investigators measure a car's skid mark to be 84 m long. It was a rainy day and the coefficient of friction was estimated to be 0.36. Use these data to determine the speed of the car when the driver slammed on (and locked) the brakes. (why does the car's mass not matter?)
Explanation:
Let us assume that v is the final velocity and u is the initial velocity of the car. Let s be the skid marks and be the friction coefficient and m be the mass of car.
Hence, the given data is as follows.
v = 0, s = 84 m, = 0.36
According to Newton's law of second motion the expression for acceleration is as follows.
F = ma
= ma
= ma
a =
Also,
=
= 24.36 m/s
Thus, we can conclude that the speed of the car when the driver slammed on (and locked) the brakes is 24.36 m/s.
The first law of thermodynamics is expresses by
D. ΔU=Q-W
which means change in internal energy of system = Heat added to system minus work done by the system
All are expressed in Joules.
This law is based on principle of conservation of energy.
