It is not as plagiarism as it is different project. You are even allowed to repeat past experiments, although you should have a category in your presentation of "background research". Science fair projects are about obtaining research on your own through you personal experiments. It sounds acceptable, but it would be advisable to double check it with your teacher or supervisor.

If you cite your sources correctly and make sure to credit everything I'm p sure it's cool. You might lose points on originality but it depends on the teacher

In a heat engine if 1000 j of heat enters the system the piston does 500 j of work, what is the final internal energy of the sys
nydimaria [60]

Answer : The final energy of the system if the initial energy was 2000 J is, 3500 J

Solution :

(1) The equation used is,

\Delta U=q+w\\\\U_{final}-U_{initial}=q+w

where,

U_{final} = final internal energy

U_{initial} = initial internal energy

q = heat energy

w = work done

(2) The known variables are, q, w and U_{initial}

initial internal energy = U_{initial} = 2000 J

heat energy = q = 1000 J

work done = w = 500 J

(3) Now plug the numbers into the equation, we get

U_{final}-(2000J)=(1000J)+(500J)

(4) By solving the terms, we get

U_{final}-(2000J)=(1000J)+(500J)

U_{final}-(2000J)=1500J

U_{final}=2000J+1500J

U_{final}=3500J

(5) Therefore, the final energy of the system if the initial energy was 2000 J is, 3500 J

Calculate the speed of body moving a distance of 320km in 4h
ololo11 [35]
Convert km to m. -> 320km=320000 m
Convert hours to seconds -> 4 hrs=14400 s
Divide the distance by time because v=d/t
320000/14400=22.22 m/s

Hi there, it is your average pathetic Junior. Anyways, I need help on 8&9 ASAP, this assignment is beyond overdue but hey wh
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

a) -31.36 m/s

b) 50.176 m

Explanation:

<h2>a) Velocity of the bag</h2>

This is a problem of motion in one direction (specifically vertical motion), and the equation that best fulfills this approach is:

V_{f}=V_{o} +a.t  (1)

Where:

V_{f} is the final velocity of the supply bag

V_{o}=0 is the initial velocity of the supply bag (we know it is zero because we are told <u>it was "dropped", this means it goes to ground in free fall</u>)

a=g=-9.8m/s^{2} is the acceleration due gravity (the negtive sign indicates the gravity is downwards, in the direction of the center of the Earth)

t=3.2s is the time

Knowing this, let's solve (1):

V_{f}=0+(-9.8m/s^{2})(3.2s)  (2)

Hence:

V_{f}=-31.36m/s  Note the negative sign is because the direction of the bag is downwards as well.

<h2>b) Final height of the bag</h2>

In this case we will use the following equation:

y=V_{o}t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2} (3)

Where:

y is the distance the bag has fallen

V_{o}=0 remembering <u>the bag was dropped</u>

g=-9.8m/s^{2} is the acceleration due gravity (downwards)

t=3.2 s is the time

Then:

y=-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2} (3)

y=-\frac{1}{2}(-9.8m/s^{2})(3.2)^{2} (4)

Finally:

y=50.176 m
