Answer: Heat Energy

Explanation:

Heat is energy in its most disordered form. heat energy is the random jostling of molecules and is therefore not organized. As cells perform the chemical reactions that generate order within, some energy is inevitably lost in the form of heat. Because the cell is not an isolated system, the heat energy produced by the cell is quickly dispersed into the cell's surroundings where it increases the intensity of the thermal motions of nearby molecules. This increases the entropy of the cell's environment and keeps the cell from violating the second law of thermodynamics.

Atomic physicists usually ignore the effect of gravity within an atom. To see why, we may calculate and compare the magnitude of

STatiana [176]

Answer:

$2.27\cdot 10^{49}$

Explanation:

The gravitational force between the proton and the electron is given by

$F_G=G\frac{m_p m_e}{r^2}$

where

G is the gravitational constant

$m_p$ is the proton mass

$m_e$ is the electron mass

r = 3 m is the distance between the proton and the electron

Substituting numbers into the equation,

$F_G=(6.67259\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg s^{-2})\frac{(1.67262\cdot 10^{-27}kg) (9.10939\cdot 10^{-31}kg)}{(3 m)^2}=1.13\cdot 10^{-68}N$

The electrical force between the proton and the electron is given by

$F_E=k\frac{q_p q_e}{r^2}$

where

k is the Coulomb constant

$q_p = q_e = q$ is the elementary charge (charge of the proton and of the electron)

r = 3 m is the distance between the proton and the electron

Substituting numbers into the equation,

$F_E=(8.98755\cdot 10^9 Nm^2 C^{-2})\frac{(1.602\cdot 10^{-19}C)^2}{(3 m)^2}=2.56\cdot 10^{-19}N$

So, the ratio of the electrical force to the gravitational force is

$\frac{F_E}{F_G}=\frac{2.56\cdot 10^{-19} N}{1.13\cdot 10^{-68}N}=2.27\cdot 10^{49}$

So, we see that the electrical force is much larger than the gravitational force.

A man and his dog are “walking” on flat Street. He is pulling on his stubborn dog with a force of 70 N Directed at a 30° angle f

Delvig [45]

Answer:

X component of force is 60.62 N.

Y component of force is 35 N.

Force of gravity on the dog is 245 N.

Magnitude of normal force is 210 N.

Explanation:

Given:

Force of pull is, $F=70\ N$

Mass of the dog is, $m=25\ kg$

Angle of inclination is, $\theta =30$ °

Acceleration due to gravity is, $g=9.8\ m/s^2$

The free body diagram of the dog is shown below.

The X and Y components of force of pull is given as:

$F_X=F\cos \theta=(70)\cos (30)=60.62\ N\\F_Y=F\sin \theta=(70)\sin(30)=35\ N$

Therefore, the X and Y components of the force are 60.62 N and 35 N respectively.

Force of gravity on the dog is the product of its mass and acceleration due to gravity. Thus,

$F_g=mg=25\times 9.8=245\ N$

Therefore, the force of gravity on the dog is 245 N.

Now, consider the motion in the vertical direction of the dog. As there is no motion in the vertical direction, the net force along the Y direction is 0. In other words, the total Upward force is equal to the total downward force.

From the free body diagram,

$N+F_Y=mg\\N=mg-F_Y\\N=245-35=210\ N$

Therefore, the normal force acting on the dog is 210 N.

Based on the second law of thermodynamics, how would you expect a system to change over time?

deff fn [24]

B. It's randomness would increase

Because the Second Law of Thermodynamics states that as energy is transferred or transformed, more and more of it is wasted. It also states that there is a natural tendency of any isolated system to degenerate into a more disordered state.

A satellite in outer space is moving at a constant velocity of 21.4 m/s in the y direction when one of its onboard thruster turn

kumpel [21]

Answer:

a) The magnitude of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off is approximately 24.177 meters per second.

b) The direction of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off is approximately 62.266º.

Explanation:

Statement is incomplete. The complete description is now described below:

<em>A satellite in outer space is moving at a constant velocity of 21.4 m/s in the y direction when one of its onboard thruster turns on, causing an acceleration of 0.250 m/s2 in the x direction. The acceleration lasts for 45.0 s, at which point the thruster turns off. </em>

<em>(a) What is the magnitude of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off</em>

<em>(b) What is the direction of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off? Give your answer as an angle measured counterclockwise from the +x-axis. ° counterclockwise from the +x-axis</em>

Let be x and y-directions orthogonal to each other and the satellite is accelerated uniformly from rest in the +x direction and moves at constant velocity in the +y direction. The velocity vector of the satellite ( $\vec{v}_{S}$ ), measured in meters per second, is:

$\vec{v}_{S} = (v_{o,x}+a_{x}\cdot t)\,\hat{i}+v_{y}\,\hat{j}$

Where:

$v_{o,x}$ - Initial velocity in +x direction, measured in meters per second.

$a_{x}$ - Acceleration in +x direction, measured in meter per square second.

$t$ - Time, measured in seconds.

$v_{y}$ - Velocity in +y direction, measured in meters per second.

If we know that $v_{o,x} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $a_{x} = 0.250\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ , $t = 45\,s$ and $v_{y} = 21.4\,\frac{m}{s}$ , the final velocity of the satellite is:

$\vec{v}_{S} = \left[0\,\frac{m}{s}+\left(0.250\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (45\,s) \right]\,\hat{i}+\left(21.4\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\,\hat{j}$

$\vec{v_{S}} = 11.25\,\hat{i}+21.4\,\hat{j}\,\,\left[\frac{m}{s} \right]$

a) The magnitud of the satellite's velocity can be found by the resource of the Pythagorean Theorem:

$\|\vec {v}_{S}\| = \sqrt{\left(11.25\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}+\left(21.4\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}}$

$\|\vec{v}_{S}\| \approx 24.177\,\frac{m}{s}$

The magnitude of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off is approximately 24.177 meters per second.

b) The direction of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off is determined with the help of trigonometric functions:

$\tan \alpha = \frac{v_{y}}{v_{x}} = \frac{21.4\,\frac{m}{s} }{11.25\,\frac{m}{s} }$

$\tan \alpha = 1.902$

$\alpha = \tan^{-1}1.902$

$\alpha \approx 62.266^{\circ}$

The direction of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off is approximately 62.266º.
