Which has more thermal energy: lake or a cup of hot chocolate?

1 answer:

4 0

Though the hot cocoa would have a higher temperature, the lake would have more thermal energy because it has more molecules with a greater total internal energy.

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts given in the balance of forces for the tangential force and the centripetal force. An easy way to detail this problem is through a free body diagram that describes the behavior of the body and the forces to which it is subject.

PART A) Normal Force.

$F_n = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

$N+mgcos\theta = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

Here,

Normal reaction of the ring is N and velocity of the ring is v

$N+mgcos\theta = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

$N+Wcos\theta = \frac{W}{g} (\frac{v^2}{r})$

$N+2cos30\° = \frac{2}{32.2}*\frac{10^2}{2}$

$N = 1.374lb$

PART B) Acceleration

$F_t = ma_t$

$-mgsin\theta = ma_t$

$-W sin\theta = \frac{W}{g} a_t$

$-2Sin30\° = (\frac{2}{32.2})a_t$

$a_T = -16.10ft/s^2$

Negative symbol indicates deceleration.
