Answer:

Explanation:

The work done on an object is equal to its change in kinetic energy: Change in KE = F × d.

Plug the values for F and d into the formula and solve:

Change in KE = 2,524 × 180

= 454,320 joules

The roller coaster gains 454,320 joules of energy from the work done on it by the chain.

The energy added here is potential energy since it is moving upward 180 meters in a gravitational field.  This is then turned into KE when it rolls down.  2524N x 180m = 454,320J

A Carnot heat engine uses a hot reservoir consisting of a large amount of boiling water and a cold reservoir consisting of a lar
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

W= 4.89 KJ

Explanation:

Lets take

temperature of hot water T₁ = 100⁰C

T₁ = 373 K

Temperature of cold ice T₂= 0⁰C

T₂ = 273 K

The latent heat of ice LH= 334 KJ

The heat rejected by the engine Q= m .LH

Q₂= 0.04 x 334

Q₂= 13.36 KJ

Heat gain by engine = Q₁

For Carnot engine

Q_1=\dfrac{T_1}{T_2}Q_2

Q_1=\dfrac{373}{273}\times 13.36

Q₁  = 18.25 KJ

The work W= Q₁  - Q₂

W= 18.25 - 13.36 KJ

W= 4.89 KJ

Determine the amount of work done by the applied force when a 87 N force is applied to move a 15 kg object a horizontal
elena-s [515]

Answer:

391.5 J

Explanation:

The amount of work done can be calculated using the formula:

  • W = F║d
  • where the force is parallel to the displacement

Looking at the formula, we can see that the mass of the object does not affect the work done on it.

Substitute the force applied and the displacement of the object into the equation.

  • W = (87 N)(4.5 m)
  • W = 391.5 J  

The amount of work done on the object is 391.5 J in order to move it 4.5 meters with an applied force of 87 Newtons.
