Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy acquired due to the motion of an object.

Mathematically,         kinetic energy = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

where                 m = mass

                           v = velocity

Therefore, kinetic energy depends on the mass and square of velocity. Hence, more is the mass of an object more will be its velocity.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, train will have more mass as compared to other objects, therefore, train will have highest kinetic energy.

The greatest amount of kinetic energy is found with the train because it takes most energy to reach that velocity and also to slow down to a halt.

Suppose the ski patrol lowers a rescue sled carrying an injured skier, with a combined mass of 97.5 kg, down a 60.0-degree slope
Kitty [74]

a. 1337.3 J work, in joules, is done by friction as the sled moved 28 m along the hill.

b.21,835 J work, in joules, is done by the rope on the sled this distance.

c. 23,170 J   the work, in joules done by the gravitational force on the sled d. The net work done on the sled, in joules is 43,670 J.

       

<h3>What is friction work?</h3>

The work done by friction is the force of friction times the distance traveled times the cosine of the angle between the friction force and displacement

a. How much work is done by friction as the sled moves 28m along the hill?

ans. We use the formula:

friction work = -µ.mg.dcosθ

  = -0.100 * 97.5 kg * 9.8 m/s² * 28 m * cos 60

= -1337.3 J

-1337.3 J work, in joules, is done by friction as the sled moved 28 m along the hill.

b. How much work is done by the rope on the sled in this distance?

We use the formula:

Rope work = -m.g.d(sinθ - µcosθ)

rope work = - 97.5 kg * 9.8 m/s² * 28 m (sin 60 – 0.100 * cos 60)

                     = 26,754 (0.816)

                     = 21,835 J

21,835 J work, in joules, is done by the rope on the sled this distance.

c.  What is the work done by the gravitational force on the sled?

By using  the formula:

Gravity work = mgdsinθ

                    = 97.5 kg * 9.8 m/s² * 28 m * sin 60

                    = 23,170 J

23,170 J   the work, in joules done by the gravitational force on the sled .

       

D. What is the total work done?

By adding all the values

work done =  -1337.3 + 21,835 + 23,170

                 = 43,670 J

The net work done on the sled, in joules is 43,670 J.

Water is being heated in a closed pan on top of a range while being stirred by a paddle wheel.
BigorU [14]

Heat transfer in a closed system is the addition of changes in internal energy and the total amount of work done by it.  The final energy of the system is 35.5kJ.  

<h3>What is heat transfer? </h3>

Heat transfer is the transfer of heat energy due to temperature differences.

The paddle-wheel paintings are quantities of workdone, 500 N.m or 0.5kJ.

The preliminary (initial) power of the device is 10 kJ.

Total warmness transferred in the course of the method is 30 kJ

Total warmness misplaced in the course of the method to the encompassing air is 5 kJ.

The energy of the system is given as:

The energy of the system = Energy in - Energy out

The energy of the system = Initial energy + Energy transferred + Work done - Energy lost

Energy of the system = 10 + 30 + 0.5 - 5 kJ

Energy of the system = 35.5 kJ

A point charge Q is placed at the center of a conducting spherical shell (inner radius a, outer radius b). What is the electric
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

a)E=\dfrac{Q}{\varepsilon _o\times 4\pi r^2}\ N/C

b)E=0

c)E=\dfrac{Q}{\varepsilon _o\times 4\pi r^2}\ N/C

Explanation:

Given that

A point charge Q is placed at the center of a conducting spherical shell .Due to this - Q charge will induce on the inner sphere surface and +Q will induce on the outer sphere surface .

a)    r < a

At a radius r ,from gauss theorem

E.ds=\dfrac{q_i}{\varepsilon _o}

E\times 4\pi r^2=\dfrac{Q}{\varepsilon _o}

E=\dfrac{Q}{\varepsilon _o\times 4\pi r^2}\ N/C

b)   a < r < b

E.ds=\dfrac{q_i}{\varepsilon _o}

The total induce in this surface = - Q+ Q =0

E.ds=\dfrac{0}{\varepsilon _o}

E = 0

c)   r > b

E.ds=\dfrac{q_i}{\varepsilon _o}

E\times 4\pi r^2=\dfrac{Q}{\varepsilon _o}

E=\dfrac{Q}{\varepsilon _o\times 4\pi r^2}\ N/C
