in which of the situations listed below is energy being transferred as heat to the system in order for the system to do work? In
which situa tion is work being done on the system in order for energy to be trans- ferred from the system as heat? a. Two sticks are rubbed together to start a fire. b. A firecracker explodes. c. A red-hot iron bar is set aside to cool.
The work done is negative as the force is applied in the forward direction and the displacement of the hand is in the backward direction.
The work done is positive as the work is done on the baseball by Carlton. Moreover, both the force applied and the displacement of Carlton are in a straight line in the forward direction.
The work done in this case is zero as Carlton rides with constant speed, the Kinetic energy too remains constant and hence net work done is zero.
The work done in this case is positive as the work is done on the baseball by Carlton and as the velocity changes its Kinetic energy also varies wit it.
Also the force applied and the displacement of Carlton in this case are in the directed to the same path.
