A 5 kg box drops a distance of 10 m to the ground. If 70% of the initial potential energy goes into increasing the internal ener
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

The initial PE (PE)_i = m×g×h

= 5 kg × 9.81 m/s² × 10 m

= 490.5 J

The change in Potential energy P.E of the box is:

ΔP.E = P.E_f -P.E_i

ΔP.E = 0 - (PE)_i

ΔP.E = -P.E_i

If we take a look at conservation of total energy for determining the change in the internal energy of the box;

\Delta P.E + \Delta K.E + \Delta U = 0

\Delta U = -\Delta P.E - \Delta K.E

this can be re-written as:

\Delta U =- (-\Delta P.E_i) - \Delta K.E

Here, K.E = 0

Also, 70% goes into raising the internal energy for the box;

Thus,

\Delta U =(70\%) \Delta P.E_i-0

\Delta U =(0.70) (490.5)

ΔU = 343.35  J

Thus, the magnitude of the increase is = 343.35 J

Two cylindrical resistors are made of the same material and have the same resistance. The resistors, R1 and R2, have different r
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

Option d is correct.

Explanation:

We know , resistance of a body is directly proportional to its length and inversely proportional to its area.

R=\dfrac{\rho\ L}{A}=\dfrac{\rho\ L}{\pi r^2}      ( Here, \rho is constant dependent on object material )

Writing R_1 \ and\ R_2 also :

R_1=\dfrac{\rho\ L_1}{\pi r_1^2}\ , \  R_2=\dfrac{\rho\ L_2}{\pi r_2^2}      ( since they are of same material therefore, \rho is same.)

Now , if r_2=2r_1 \ and \ 4L_1=L_2.

Then R_1=R_2

Therefore, option d. is correct.

Hence, this is the required solution.

A rocket moves upward, starting from rest with an acceleration of +29.4 for 3.98 s. it runs out of fuel at the end of the 3.98 s
topjm [15]
U = 0, initial upward speed
a = 29.4 m/s², acceleration up to 3.98 s
a = -9.8 m/s², acceleration after 3.98s

Let h₁ =  the height at time t, for t ≤ 3.98 s
Let h₂ =  the height at time t > 3.98 s

Motion for  t ≤ 3.98 s:
h₁ = (1/2)*(29.4 m/s²)*(3.98 s)² = 232.854 m
Calculate the upward velocity at t = 3.98 s
v₁ = (29.4 m/s²)*(3.98 s) = 117.012 m/s

Motion for t  > 3.98 s
At maximum height, the upward velocity is zero.
Calculate the extra distance traveled before the velocity is zero.
(117.012 m/s)² + 2*(-9.8 m/s²)*(h₂ m) = 0
h₂ = 698.562 m

The total height is
h₁ + h₂ = 232.854 + 698.562 = 931.416 m

Answer: 931.4 m (nearest tenth)
