Bob is pushing a box across the floor at a constant speed of 1.4 m/s, applying a horizontal force whose magnitude is 65 N. Alice

is pushing an identical box across the floor at a constant speed of 2.8 m/s, applying a horizontal force. (a) What is the magnitude of the force that Alice is applying to the box? F = N (b) With the two boxes starting from rest, explain qualitatively what Alice and Bob did to get their boxes moving at different constant speeds. In order to keep the box moving twice as fast, Alice had to apply a constant force that was twice as large as the force that Bob applied. Each initially applied a force bigger than static friction to get the box moving and accelerating, then when the desired final speed was achieved they reduced the force to make the net force zero.

Answer:

a) 65 N

b) Each initially applied a force bigger than static friction to get the box moving and accelerating, then when the desired final speed was achieved they reduced the force to make the net force zero.

Explanation:

a) Here, both boxes are identical. They have different velocities but the velocities are constant hence the force Alice is applying is 65 N. Constant velocity means there is no acceleration.

b) The acceleration that Alice provided must have been different than that of Bob. But after reaching their desired speed they stopped accelerating. This would make the net force zero.

Fofino [41]
This statement is true. The greater the mass is in an object, it is indeed the higher resistance to a change in movement the object will have. That only mean that the mass of an object and its resistance to change of movement is directly proportional.

An ideal gas Carnot cycle with air in a piston cylinder has a high temperature of 1000 K and a heat rejection at 400 K. During t
vivado [14]

Answer:

W / n = - 9133 J / mol, W / n = 3653 J / mol , e = 0.600

Explanation:

The Carnot cycle is described by

      e= 1 - Q_{c} / Q_{H} = 1 - T_{c} / T_{H}

     

In this case they indicate that the final volume is

         V = 3V₀

In the part of the heat absorption cycle from the source is an isothermal expansion

         W = n RT ln (V₀ / V)

         W / n = 8.314 1000 ln (1/3)

          W / n = - 9133 J / mol

During the part of the isothermal compression in contact with the cold focus, as in a machine the relation of volumes is maintained in this part is compressed three times

            W / n = 8.314 400 (3)

           W / n = 3653 J / mol

The efficiency of the cycle is

            e = 1- 400/1000

            e = 0.600

Gravity

The moon doesn't smash into the earth because the gravity from the earth keeps the moon in orbit around it.
