A 1500 kg car, initially traveling at 22.0 m/s, hits its brakes and skids to a stop. Determine the work done by friction.

Sedbober [7]3 years ago

Answer:

<em>The work done by the car is 363 kJ</em>

Explanation:

Work : Work is said to be done when a Force moves an object through a certain distance. Work and Energy are interchangeable because they have the same unit. The unit of work is Joules (J).

Mathematically work done can be expressed as,

E = W = 1/2mv²

W =  1/2mv²................................ Equation 1

Where E = Energy, W = work done, m = mass of the car, v = velocity of the car

<em>Given: m=1500 kg, v=22 m/s</em>

<em>Substituting these values into equation 1</em>

<em>W = 1/2(1500)(22)²</em>

<em>W = 750 × 484</em>

<em>W = 363000 J</em>

<em>W = 363 kJ</em>

<em>Thus the work done by the car is 363 kJ</em>

What would happen if you touched an object that is the same temperature as your hand? Would any heat transfer happen? Explain yo
SashulF [63]

Answer:

Explanation:

When two objects are in thermal equilibrium they are said to have the same temperature. During the process of reaching thermal equilibrium, heat, which is a form of energy, is transferred between the object

which means that it refers to transfer through a selectively permeable partition, the contact path.[1] For the relation of thermal equilibrium, the contact path is permeable only to heat; it does not permit the passage of matter or work; it is called a diathermal connection. According to Lieb and Yngvason, the essential meaning of the relation of thermal equilibrium includes that it is reflexive and symmetric. It is not included in the essential meaning whether it is or is not transitive. After discussing the semantics of the definition, they postulate a substantial physical axiom, that they call the "zeroth law of thermodynamics", that thermal equilibrium is a transitive relation. They comment that the equivalence classes of systems so established are called isotherms

Nitrogen at 100 kPa and 25oC in a rigid vessel is heated until its pressure is 300 kPa. Calculate (a) the work done and (b) the
nignag [31]

Answer:

A. The work done during the process is W = 0

B. The value of heat transfer during the process Q = 442.83 \frac{KJ}{kg}

Explanation:

Given Data

Initial pressure P_{1} = 100 k pa

Initial temperature T_{1} = 25 degree Celsius = 298 Kelvin

Final pressure P_{2} = 300 k pa

Vessel is rigid so change in volume of the gas is zero. so that initial volume is equal to final volume.

⇒ V_{1} = V_{2} ------------- (1)

Since volume of the gas is constant so pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas.

⇒ P ∝ T

⇒ \frac{P_{2} }{P_{1}} = \frac{T_{2} }{T_{1}}

⇒ Put all the values in the above formula we get the final temperature

⇒ T_{2} = \frac{300}{100} × 298

⇒ T_{2} = 894 Kelvin

(A). Work done during the process is given by W = P × (V_{2} -V _{1})

From equation (1), V_{1} = V_{2} so work done W = P × 0 = 0

⇒ W = 0

Therefore the work done during the process is zero.

Heat transfer during the process is given by the formula Q = m C_{v} ( T_{2} -T_{1} )

Where m = mass of the gas = 1 kg

C_{v} = specific heat at constant volume of nitrogen = 0.743 \frac{KJ}{kg k}

Thus the heat transfer Q = 1 × 0.743 × ( 894- 298 )

⇒ Q = 442.83 \frac{KJ}{kg}

Therefore the value of heat transfer during the process Q = 442.83 \frac{KJ}{kg}
