Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply conservation of mechanical energy .

initial kinetic energy = 1/2 m v²

= .5 x m x 12 x 12

= 72 m

This energy will be spent to store potential energy . if h be the height attained

potential energy = mgh , h is vertical height attined by block

= mg l sin20  where l is length up the inclined plane  

for conservation of mechanical energy

initial kinetic energy  = potential energy

72 m = mg l sin20

l = 72 /  g  sin20

= 21.5 m

deceleration on inclined plane = g sin20

= 3.35 m /s²

v = u - at

t = v - u / a

= (12 - 0) / 3.35

= 3.58 s

it will take the same time to come back . total time taken to reach original point = 2 x 3.58

= 7.16 s

Answer:

a.)

I.) Open system

II.) Closed system

b.)

The total momentum of the object and earth system stay the same as the object fall toward the earth

The kinetic energy of the object increases as the object falls toward the earth.

Explanation:

a.)

I.) The system containing only the object is an open system because of the influence of external forces and presence of matters. External forces in this scenario means gravitational force acting on the object. And air is the matter that has influence on the object.

II.) The system containing only the object and earth is a closed system. Because in a closed system, there are no external dissipative forces acting on it. Universe is a closed system. And the mechanical energy of a close system is conserved. The mechanical energy will remain constant. In other words, it will not change (become more or less). This is called the Law of Conservation of Mechanical Energy.

b.) The total momentum of the object and earth system stay the same as the object fall toward the earth. Because momentum will always be conserved.

The kinetic energy of the object increases as the object falls toward the earth. When the object was initially at rest, kinetic energy equals zero

If an ideal monatomic gas undergoes an adiabatic expansion, in which the volume increases by a factor of 4.0, by what factor doe
julsineya [31]

Answer:

e) 0.099

Explanation:

For an adiabatic expansion:

P_1 V_1^{\gamma} = P_2 V_2^{\gamma}

where

P1 is the initial pressure

P2 is the final pressure

V1 is the initial volume

V2 is the final volume

\gamma is the adiabatic index (which is \frac{5}{3} for an ideal monoatomic gas

In this problem, we have

V_2 = 4 V_1 since the volume increases by a factor 4

We can re-write the equation to find by what factor the pressure changes:

\frac{P_2}{P_1}=(\frac{V_1}{V_2})^{\gamma}=(\frac{V_1}{4V_1})^{5/3}=(\frac{1}{4})^{5/3}=0.099

A hot air balloon travels 18 kilometers west and then travels 50 kilometers east. What is the current position of the hot air ba
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

32 km east

Explanation:

In order to find the final position of the balloon, we need to calculate its total displacement.

We have:

- Displacement towards west: 18 km

- Displacement towards east: 50 km

The two vectors are on the same line: this means that we can simply add them together (taking into account the proper direction) to obtain the total displacement.

Taking east as positive direction and west as negative direction, we have:

d = 50 + (-18) = 50 - 18 = 32 km

And since it is positive, it means that the final position of the balloon is 32 km east from its initial position.
