Answer:

The lose of thermal energy is, Q = 22500 J

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of aluminium block, m = 1.0 kg

The initial temperature of block, T = 50° C

The final temperature of the block, T' = 25° C

The change in temperature, ΔT = 50° C - 25° C

                                                     = 25° C

The specific heat capacity of aluminium, c = 900  J/kg°C

The formula for thermal energy,

                             <em>Q = mcΔT</em>

                                 = 1.0 x 900 x 25

                                 = 22500 J

Hence, the lose of thermal energy is, Q = 22500 J

A woman pushes a 27 kg lawnmower at a steady speed. She exerts a 120 N force in a direction 35◦ below the horizontal. The accele
nikklg [1K]

The vertical force exerted on the lawn is 68.8 N downward

Explanation:

The vertical force exerted by the lawnmower on the lawn is equal to the vertical component of the force applied, therefore:

F_y = F sin \theta

where

F is the magnitude of the force applied

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and the horizontal

In this problem:

F = 120 N

\theta=-35^{\circ}

Substituting,

F_y = (120)(sin 30)=-68.8 N

where the negative sign means the direction of the force is downward.

A young child is playing with a very flexible hose. She is moving her hand back and forth making transverse type waves. She move
aev [14]

Answer:

The waves will increase in frequency

Explanation:

As the young girl moves her hand back and forth faster, it will be observed that number of back and forth motions increase every second. Also the distance between crest and trough of the wave (wavelength) will be reduced as she moves her hand back and forth faster.

Frequency = number of turns (moves) per second

The waves will increase in frequency since there will be more number of back and forth motions in every second.

Also,

The distance between crest and trough will be reduced, which implies that there will be decrease in waves wavelength.

This can also be verified using wave equation;

V = Fλ

At constant velocity,

F ∝ ¹/λ

Thus, decrease in wavelength will cause increase in frequency of the waves.

The right answer is : The waves will increase in frequency

In each cycle, a heat engine performs 710 J of work and exhausts 1480 J of heat. What is the thermal effiency?
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

32%

Explanation:

For a heat engine, efficiency is work out divided by heat in:

η = Wₒ / Qᵢ

Since energy is balanced, heat in is the sum of work out and heat out:

Qᵢ = Wₒ + Qₒ

Therefore:

η = Wₒ / (Wₒ + Qₒ)

Given Wₒ = 710 J and Qₒ = 1480 J:

η = 710 / (710 + 1480)

η = 0.32

The thermal efficiency is 32%.
