Answer:

Explanation:

Capacitor of 0.75μF, charged to 70V and connect in series with 55Ω and 140 Ω to discharge.

Energy dissipates in 55Ω resistor is given by V²/R

Since the 55ohms and 140ohms l discharge the capacitor fully, the voltage will be zero volts and this voltage will be shared by the resistor in ratio.

So for 55ohms, using voltage divider rule

V=R1/(R1+R2) ×Vt

V=55/(55+140) ×70

V=19.74Volts is across the 55ohms resistor.

Then, energy loss will be

E=V²/R

E=19.74²/55

E=7.09J

7.09J of heat is dissipated by the 55ohms resistor

As an object moves from point A to point B only two forces act onit: one force is nonconservative and does -30 J of work, the ot
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

To solve this problem we will apply the principles of energy conservation. On the one hand we have that the work done by the non-conservative force is equivalent to -30J while the work done by the conservative force is 50J.

This leads to the direct conclusion that the resulting energy is 20J.

The conservative force is linked to the movement caused by the sum of the two energies, therefore there is an increase in kinetic energy. The decrease in the mechanical energy of the system is directly due to the loss given by the non-conservative force, therefore there is a decrease in mechanical energy.

Therefore the correct answer is A. Kintetic energy increases and mechanical energy decreases.

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

W = 46 J

Explanation:

We need to find the angle between the two vectors Force vector and displacement vector.

First we will find the angle α of the force vector

tan\alpha =\frac{1}{8} \\\\\\alpha =7.125 deg\\

Then we find the angle β of the displacement vector

tan\beta=\frac{2}{6} \\\\beta = 18.43 deg\\

With these two angles we can find the angle between the two vectors

∅ = α + β = 25.56 deg

The definition of work is given by the expression

W=F*d*cos (theta)

The absolute value of F will be:

F=\sqrt{8^{2}+1^{2}  } \\F= 8.06 N

The absolute value of d will be:

d=\sqrt{(6 )^{2}+(2)^{2}  } \\d= 6.32m\\

Now we have:

W=8.06*6.32*cos(25.56)\\W=46 J
