Hot coffee in a mug cools over time and the mug warms up. Which describes the energy in this system?

Physics

Travka [436]4 years ago

Answer:  option 3

The heat energy from the coffee is transferred to the mug. This is because of entropy change. For a certain time period the coffee release the heat to the adjacent walls of the mug. But after certain period of time both the mug and coffee reaches to the same temperature i.e., they become under equilibrium state.

And also over the time period the heat may also transfers to the surroundings and the mug will cool down and matches to the surrounding temperature.

Answer: Thermal energy from the coffee is transferred to the mug.

Explanation:

Heat loss will occur due to convection radiation and conduction

The mug gains heat from the coffee by conduction

A 12.0 μF capacitor is charged to a potential of 50.0 V and then discharged through a 265 Ω resistor. A)How long does the capaci
larisa [96]

(a) The time for the capacitor to loose half its charge is 2.2 ms.

(b) The time for the capacitor to loose half its energy is 1.59 ms.

<h3>Time taken to loose half of its charge</h3>

q(t) = q₀e-^(t/RC)

q(t)/q₀ = e-^(t/RC)

0.5q₀/q₀ = e-^(t/RC)

0.5 = e-^(t/RC)

1/2 =  e-^(t/RC)

t/RC = ln(2)

t = RC x ln(2)

t = (12 x 10⁻⁶ x 265) x ln(2)

t = 2.2 x 10⁻³ s

t = 2.2 ms

<h3>Time taken to loose half of its stored energy</h3>

U(t) = Ue-^(t/RC)

U = ¹/₂Q²/C

(Ue-^(t/RC))²/2C = Q₀²/2Ce

e^(2t/RC) = e

2t/RC = 1

t = RC/2

t = (265 x 12 x 10⁻⁶)/2

t = 1.59 x 10⁻³ s

t = 1.59 ms

Thus, the time for the capacitor to loose half its charge is 2.2 ms and the time for the capacitor to loose half its energy is 1.59 ms.

A proton is released in a uniform electric field, and it experiences an electric force of 2.36×10−14 N toward the south. (a)What
qwelly [4]

Answer:

a) E = 1.47 × 10^5 N/C

b) south

Explanation:

The magnitude of an electric field can be defined mathematically as;

E = F/q ........1

Where,

E = magnitude of the electric field

F = electric force

q = charge on the proton

Given;

F = 2.36 × 10^-14 N

Note that charge on a proton is known as Qp = 1.602 × 10^-19 C

q = 1.602 × 10^-19 C

Substituting into equation 1, we have;

E = 2.36 × 10^-14 N/1.602 × 10^-19 C

E = 1.47 × 10^5 N/C

b) The direction of the electric field;

From equation 1

E = F/q ........1

since both electric field and electric force are vector quantity and q is a positive charge (constant), then both the electric field and electric force would be parallel to each other. Therefore the electric field is directed to the south also.

(When a vector is multiplied by a positive constant the direction remains the same)

A heavy rope 6.00 m long and weighing 29.4 N is attached at one end to a ceiling and hangs vertically. A 0.500-kg mass is suspen
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

a) v=3.1252\ m.s^{-1}

b) v=39.0672\ m.s^{-1}

c) v=8.2685\ m.s^{-1}

d) No,

   No.

Explanation:

Given:

length of rope, l=6\ m

weight of the rope, w=29.4\ N

mass suspended at the lower end of the rope, M=0.5\ kg

<u>Now the mass of the rope:</u>

m=\frac{w}{g}

m=\frac{29.4}{9.8}

m=3.01\ kg

<u>So the linear mass density of rope:</u>

\mu=\frac{m}{l}

\mu=\frac{3.01}{6}

\mu=0.5017\ kg.m^{-1}

We know that the speed of wave in a tensed rope is given as:

v=\sqrt{\frac{F_T}{\mu} }

where:

F_T=  tension force in the rope

a)

At the bottom of the hanging rope we have an extra mass suspended. So the tension at the bottom of the rope:

F_T=M\times g

F_T=0.5\times 9.8

F_T=4.9\ N

Therefore the speed of the wave at the bottom point of the rope:

v=\sqrt{\frac{4.9}{0.5017} }

v=3.1252\ m.s^{-1}

b)

Tension at a point in the middle of the rope:

F_T=M\times g+\frac{w}{2}

F_T=0.5\times 9.8+\frac{29.4}{2}

F_T=19.6\ N

Now wave speed at this point:

v=\sqrt{\frac{19.6}{0.5017} }

v=39.0672\ m.s^{-1}

c)

Tension at a point in the top of the rope:

F_T=M\times g+w

F_T=0.5\times 9.8+29.4

F_T=34.3\ N

Now wave speed at this point:

v=\sqrt{\frac{34.3}{0.5017} }

v=8.2685\ m.s^{-1}

d)

Tension at the middle of the rope is not the average tension of tension at the top and bottom of the rope because we have an extra mass attached at the bottom end of the rope.

Also the wave speed at the mid of the rope is not the average f the speeds at the top and the bottom of the ropes because it depends upon the tension of the rope at the concerned points.
