A student, starting from rest, slides down a water slide. On the way down, a kinetic frictional force (a nonconservative force)

acts on her. The student has a mass of 73 kg, and the height of the water slide is 11.8 m. If the kinetic frictional force does -5.5 × 103 J of work, how fast is the student going at the bottom of the slide?

Answer:

<em>The velocity with which the student goes down the bottom of glide is 12.48m/s.</em>

Explanation:

The Non conservative force is defined as a force which do not store energy or get he energy dissipate the energy from the system as the system progress with the motion.

Given are

   <em>  mass of the student 73 kg</em>

<em>      height of water glide 11.8 m</em>

<em>      work done as -5.5*10³ J</em>

Have to find speed at which the student goes down the glide.

According to<em> Law of Conservation of energy</em>,

          K.E =P.E+Work Done

 mv²/2=mgh +W

Rearranging the above eqn for v

v = √2(gh+W/m)

Substituting values,

V =  12.48 m/s.

<em>The velocity with which the student goes down the bottom of glide is 12.48m/s.</em>

Singly charged gas ions are accelerated from rest through a voltage of 10.3 V. At what temperature (in K) will the average kinet
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

Temperature of the gas molecules is 7.96 x 10⁴ K

Explanation:

Given :

Ions accelerated through voltage, V = 10.3 volts

The work done to change the position of singly charged gas ions is given by the relation :

W = q x V

Here q is charge of the ions and its value is 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C.

Average kinetic energy of gas molecules is given by the relation:

K.E. = \frac{3}{2}kT

Here T is temperature and k is Boltzmann constant and its value is 1.38 x 10⁻²³ J/K.

According to the problem, the average kinetic energy of gas is equal to the work done to move the singly charged ions, i.e. ,

K.E. = W

\frac{3}{2}kT = qV

Rearrange the above equation in terms of T :

T= \frac{2qV}{3k}

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

T=\frac{2\times1.6\times10^{-19}\times10.3 }{3\times1.38\times10^{-23} }

T = 7.96 x 10⁴ K

The diagram below represents the rock cycle.
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

C. Heat and Pressure

Explanation:

The arrow which is labeled A points from igneous rock to metamorphic rock.

There are three types of Rocks:

1. Igneous Rock

2. Metamorphic Rock

3. Sedimentary Rock

Rock cycle:

Rock cycle is the process that describes the transition between these three types of rocks. Each type has its own form and its own equilibrium condition. The rock type alters when it is pushed out of its equilibrium conditions.

Transition of Igneous rock to Metamorphic rock:

Igneous rock forms when magma cools down. The transition of Igneous Rock to Metamorphic Rock is a result of a process called Metamorphism. Metamorphism is the alteration in the structure of rock as a result of certain heat and pressure conditions. Inside Earth heat comes from pressure. Heat with pressure does not melt the rock but it bakes the rock. Baking is not melting but it changes the shape of the rock while it is still solid. It actually forms crystals. Because the rock changes its structure, it is called Metamorphic Rock.
