A 21.7kg child descends a slide 3.5 m high and reaches the bottom with a speed of 2.2m/s. How much thermal energy due to frictio

5 0

Answer:

Subtract the kinetic energy at the bottom from the potential energy loss. The remainder becomes frictional heat.

Potential energy loss:

M g H = 21.7*9.81*3.5 = 745.1 J

Kinetic energy at bottom of slide:

= (1/2) M v^2 = 52.5 J

What is the Lorentz force law used for?
alexira [117]

Answer:

Lorentz force, the force exerted on a charged particle q moving with velocity v through an electric E and magnetic field B. The entire electromagnetic force F on the charged particle is called the Lorentz force (after the Dutch physicist Hendrik A. Lorentz) and is given by F = qE + qv × B.

A well is being dug. A 4.5-kg bucket is filled with 28.0 kg of dirt and pulled vertically upward at a constant speed through a d
andreyandreev [35.5K]

The work done on the filled bucket in raising out of the hole is 2, 925 Joules

<h3>How to determine the work done</h3>

Using the formula:

Work done = force * distance

Note that force = mass * acceleration

F = mg + ma

F = 4. 5 * 10 + 28 * 10

F = 45 + 280

F = 325 Newton

Distance = 9m

Substitute into formula

Work done = 325 * 9

Work done = 2, 925 Joules

Therefore, the work done is 2, 925 Joules

What is the difference between real and apparent weightlessness?
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

In space we feel weightlessness because the earth's gravity has less effect on us. The Earth's gravitational attraction at those altitudes is only about 11% less than it is at the Earth's surface. If you had a ladder that could reach as high as the shuttle's orbit, your weight would be 11% less at the top.

Hope this helps:)

Prove the three laws of motion​
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

The first law, also called the law of inertia, was pioneered by Galileo. This was quite a conceptual leap because it was not possible in Galileo's time to observe a moving object without at least some frictional forces dragging against the motion. In fact, for over a thousand years before Galileo, educated individuals believed Aristotle's formulation that, wherever there is motion, there is an external force producing that motion.

The second law, $ f(t)=m\,a(t)$ , actually implies the first law, since when $ f(t)=0$ (no applied force), the acceleration $ a(t)$ is zero, implying a constant velocity $ v(t)$ . (The velocity is simply the integral with respect to time of $ a(t)={\dot v}(t)$ .)

Newton's third law implies conservation of momentum [138]. It can also be seen as following from the second law: When one object ``pushes'' a second object at some (massless) point of contact using an applied force, there must be an equal and opposite force from the second object that cancels the applied force. Otherwise, there would be a nonzero net force on a massless point which, by the second law, would accelerate the point of contact by an infinite amount.
