They would be seeing the sunset because the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. C is east and A is west.

A certain refrigerator has a COP of 5.00. When the refrigerator is running, its power input is 500 W. A sample of water of mass

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

t=20s

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must apply the first law of thermodynamics, which indicates that the energy that enters a system is the same that must come out, resulting in the following equation

For this problem we will assume that the water is in a liquid state, since it is a domestic refrigerator

q=m.cp.(T2-T1)

q=heat

m=mass of water =600g=0.6Kg

cp=

specific heat of water=4186J/kgK

T2=temperature in state 2=20°C

T1=temperature in state 1=0°C

solving:

q=(0.6)(4186)(20-0)=50232J

A refrigerator is a device that allows heat to be removed to an enclosure (Qin), by means of the input of an electrical energy (W) and the heat output (Qout), the coefficient of performance COP, allows to know the ratio between the heat removed ( Qin) and the added electrical power (W), the equation for the COP is

$COP=\frac{Qin}{Win}$

To solve this exercise we must know the value of the heat removed to the water (Qin)

solving for Qin

Qin=(COP)(Win)

Qin=(5)(500W)=2500W

finally we remember that the definition of power is the ratio of work over time

w=work

p=power=500w

$P=\frac{W}{t} \\t=\frac{W}{P} \\t=\frac{50232}{2500} \\t=20.09s$

Suppose Person A runs off the edge of the cliff at 2 m/s and Person B runs off the edge at 1 m/s. Which will hit the ground fart

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

<h2>Person A will hit a distance father</h2>

Explanation:

Based on the fact that the velocity of person A is more than that of person B, that is from the question, person A has a velocity of 2m/s and person B has a velocity of 1m/s, this clearly shows that person A has the tendency to hit a distance farther from the cliff than person B.

Derive an expression for the total mechanical energy of the system as the monkey reaches the top of the motion, Etop, in terms o

ipn [44]

Answer:

U = 0.5 * k *(x + d - h_max)^2 + m*g*h_max

Explanation:

Given:

- The extension in spring @ equilibrium = x m

- The spring constant = k

- The amount of distance pulled down = d

- mass of the toy = m

Find:

- The total mechanical energy E_top at the top position h_max in terms of the available variables.

Solution:

- First we need to determine the types of Energy that are in play:

- The Elastic potential Energy E_p in a spring is given:

E_p: 0.5 * k * (ext)

- In our case when the toy at the top most position h_max will have a net extension ext, by summing displacement of spring:

ext = Equilibrium + distance pulled - h_max = (x + d - h_max)

Hence, the elastic potential energy will be:

E_p = 0.5 * k *(x + d - h_max)^2

- The gravitational potential energy E_g is given by:

E_g = m*g*h_max

Where, bottom most position is taken as reference (datum).

- The kinetic Energy E_k is given by:

E_k = 0.5*m*v_top^2

- Since we know that the maximum height is reached when velocity is zero

Hence, E_k = 0.5*m*0^2 = 0.

The total Energy of the system U is sum of all energies and play:

U = E_p + E_k + E_g

U = 0.5 * k *(x + d - h_max)^2 + m*g*h_max
