A 2:2 kg toy train is con ned to roll along a straight, frictionless track parallel to the x-axis. The train starts at the origi
Liula [17]

Answer:

a) 10.51 J

b) 3.48 m/s

Explanation:

Given data :

mass of train ( M ) = 2.2 kg

Given initial velocity ( u ) = 1.6 m/s

<u>a) calculating work done by the force over the journey of the train</u>

F = mx + b  ------ ( 1 )

m = slope  = ( Δ f / Δ x ) = 2.8 / -7.5 = - 0.373 N/m

x = distance travelled on the x axis by the train = 7.5 m

F = force experienced by the train = 2.8 N

x = 0

∴ b = 2.8

hence equation 1 can be written as

F = ( -0.373) x + 2.8   ----- ( 2 )

hence to determine the work done by the force

W   = \int\limits^7_0 { ( -0.373) x + 2.8  )} \, dx     Note:  the limits are actually 7.5 and 0

∴ W ( work done ) = -10.49 + 21 = 10.51 J

<u>b) calculate the speed of the train at the end of its journey</u>

we will apply the work energy theorem

W = 1/2 m*v^2  -  1/2 m*u^2

∴ V^2 = 2 / M ( W + 1/2 M*u^2 )  ( input values into equation )

 V^2 = 12.11

hence V = 3.48 m/s

Why must the Moon travel more than a full orbit around the Earth for the full moon to be complete?
kumpel [21]

Answer:

The difference between the sidereal and synodic months occurs becuase as our moon moves around the earth, the earth also moves around our sun. Our moon must travel a little farther in its path to make up for the added distance and complete the phase cycle.

Explanation:

Hope this helps.

2<br><br> How does Descartes' "quality of motion" differ from the modern<br><br> momentum?
Rzqust [24]

Answer: Descartes was more of speed which defers from modern day velocity.

Explanation:

Descartes law if conservation referred or defined “motion” rather than “momentum” as what is obtainable in today's world as ”speed” the rate at which something moves rather than “velocity” which is a product of speed and direction. So in conclusion Descartes was more of speed which defers from modern day velocity.

The cylinder with piston locked in place is immersed in a mixture of ice and water and allowed to come to thermal equilibrium wi
lukranit [14]

Answer:

a. volume of gas:  (decreases)

b. temperature of gas:  (same)

c. internal energy of gas: (same)

d. pressure of gas: (increases)

Explanation:

We have a gas (let's suppose that is ideal) in a piston with a fixed volume V.

Then we put in a reservoir at 0°C (the mixture of water and ice)

remember that the state equation for an ideal gas is:

P*V = n*R*T

and:

U = c*n*R*T

where:

P = pressure

V = volume

n = number of mols

R = constant

c = constant

T = temperature.

Now, we have equilibrium at T = 0°C, then we can assume that T is also a constant.

Then in the equation:

P*V = n*R*T

all the terms in the left side are constants.

P*V = constant

And knowing that:

U = c*n*R*T

then:

n*R*T = U/c

We can replace it in the other equation to get:

P*V = U/c = constant.

Now, the piston is (slowly) moving inwards, then:

a) Volume of the gas: as the piston moves inwards, the volume where the gas can be is smaller, then the volume of the gas decreases.

b) temperature of the gas: we know that the gas is a thermal equilibrium with the mixture (this happens because we are in a slow process) then the temperature of the gas does not change.

c) Internal energy of the gas:

we have:

P*V = n*R*T = constant

and:

P*V = U/c = constant.

Then:

U = c*Constant

This means that the internal energy does not change.

d) Pressure of the gas:

Here we can use the relation:

P*V = constant

then:

P = (constant)/V

Now, if V decreases, the denominator in that equation will be smaller. We know that if we decrease the value of the denominator, the value of the quotient increases.

And the quotient is equal to P.

Then if the volume decreases, we will see that the pressure increases.
