Heat is transferred from the sun to the earth via electromagnetic waves (see Chapter 24). Because of this transfer, the entropy
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

1.  Decreases,

2.   Increases,

3.   Increases

Explanation:

The heat which is a product of sun's energy, is transferred from the sun to the earth through radiation, conduction or convention. This heat passes through the earth atmosphere, then warms it , before becoming heat energy.

Therefore, Heat is transferred from the sun to the earth via electromagnetic waves . Because of this transfer, the entropy of the sun DECREASES, the entropy of the earth INCREASES and the entropy of the sun-earth system INCREASES.

In a flying ski jump, the skier acquires a speed of 110 km/h by racing down a steep hill and then lifts off into the air from a
matrenka [14]

Answer:

Approximately \displaystyle\rm \left[ \begin{array}{c}\rm191\; m\\\rm-191\; m\end{array}\right].

Explanation:

Consider this 45^{\circ} slope and the trajectory of the skier in a cartesian plane. Since the problem is asking for the displacement vector relative to the point of "lift off", let that particular point be the origin (0, 0).

Assume that the skier is running in the positive x-direction. The line that represents the slope shall point downwards at 45^{\circ} to the x-axis. Since this slope is connected to the ramp, it should also go through the origin. Based on these conditions, this line should be represented as y = -x.

Convert the initial speed of this diver to SI units:

\displaystyle v = \rm 110\; km\cdot h^{-1} = 110 \times \frac{1}{3.6} = 30.556\; m\cdot s^{-1}.

The question assumes that the skier is in a free-fall motion. In other words, the skier travels with a constant horizontal velocity and accelerates downwards at g (g \approx \rm -9.81\; m\cdot s^{-2} near the surface of the earth.) At t seconds after the skier goes beyond the edge of the ramp, the position of the skier will be:

  • x-coordinate: 30.556t meters (constant velocity;)
  • y-coordinate: \displaystyle -\frac{1}{2}g\cdot t^{2} = -\frac{9.81}{2}\cdot t^{2} meters (constant acceleration with an initial vertical velocity of zero.)

To eliminate t from this expression, solve the equation between t and x for t. That is: express t as a function of x.

x = 30.556\;t\implies \displaystyle t = \frac{x}{30.556}.

Replace the t in the equation of y with this expression:

\begin{aligned} y = &-\frac{9.81}{2}\cdot t^{2}\\ &= -\frac{9.81}{2} \cdot \left(\frac{x}{30.556}\right)^{2}\\&= -0.0052535\;x^{2}\end{aligned}.

Plot the two functions:

  • y = -x,
  • \displaystyle y= -0.0052535\;x^{2},

and look for their intersection. Refer to the diagram attached.

Alternatively, equate the two expressions of y (right-hand side of the equation, the part where y is expressed as a function of x.)

-0.0052535\;x^{2} = -x,

\implies x = 190.35.

The value of y can be found by evaluating either equation at this particular x-value: x = 190.35.

y = -190.35.

The position vector of a point (x, y) on a cartesian plane is \displaystyle \left[\begin{array}{l}x \\ y\end{array}\right]. The coordinates of this skier is approximately (190.35, -190.35). The position vector of this skier will be \displaystyle\rm \left[ \begin{array}{c}\rm191\\\rm-191\end{array}\right]. Keep in mind that both numbers in this vectors are in meters.

A mass m attached to a horizontal massless spring with spring constant k, is set into simple harmonic motion. its maximum displa
Lesechka [4]
At the point of maximum displacement (a), the elastic potential energy of the spring is maximum:
U_i= \frac{1}{2} ka^2
while the kinetic energy is zero, because at the maximum displacement the mass is stationary, so its velocity is zero:
K_i =0
And the total energy of the system is
E_i = U_i+K= \frac{1}{2}ka^2

Viceversa, when the mass reaches the equilibrium position, the elastic potential energy is zero because the displacement x is zero:
U_f = 0
while the mass is moving at speed v, and therefore the kinetic energy is
K_f =  \frac{1}{2} mv^2
And the total energy is
E_f = U_f + K_f =  \frac{1}{2} mv^2

For the law of conservation of energy, the total energy must be conserved, therefore E_i = E_f. So we  can write
\frac{1}{2} ka^2 =  \frac{1}{2}mv^2
that we can solve to find an expression for v:
v= \sqrt{ \frac{ka^2}{m} }
