Answer:

<em>The net force acting on the object is 72.8 Nw</em>

Explanation:

<u>Net Force in Free Falling Objects</u>

When an object is falling in the air, the default force applied to it is the gravitational force or its weight. If air resistance is considered, then the net force acting on the object must take into consideration two opposed forces

$F_n=W-F_a$

Where $F_n$ is the net force, $F_a$ is the air resistance, and W is the weigh of the object

$W=mg$

$F_n=mg-F_a$

$F_n=(11)(9.8)-35=72.8\ N$

The net force acting on the object is $\boxed{72.8 Nw}$

How much work would have to be done to bring a 1150kg automobile traveling at 86km/h to a stop?

krok68 [10]

Explanation:

We have,

Mass of an automobile is 1150 kg

The automobile traveling at 86 km/h and then it comes to stop.

86 km/h = 23.88 m/s

It is required to find work done by the automobile.

Concept used : Work energy theorem

Th change in kinetic energy of an object is equal to the work done by it. The work done is then given by :

$W=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)$

Here, v = 0

$W=-\dfrac{1}{2}mu^2\\\\W=-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1150\times (23.88)^2\\\\W=-327896.28\ J$

or

$W=3.27\times 10^5\ J$

Therefore, the work done by the automobile is $-3.27\times 10^5\ J$ .

Water flows through a cylindrical pipe of varying cross-section. The velocity is 3.0 m/s at a point where the pipe diameter is 1

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

The flow rate is $R =2.357 *10^{-4} \ m^3/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The velocity is $v = 3.0 \ m/s$

The diameter of the pipe is $d = 1.0 \ cm = 0.01 \ m$

The radius of the pipe is mathematically represented as

$r = \frac{d}{2}$

substituting values

$r = \frac{0.01}{2}$

$r = 0.005 \ m$

The flow rate is mathematically represented as

$R = v * A$

Where is the cross-sectional area of the pipe which is mathematically evaluated as

$A = \pi r^2$

substituting values

$A = 3.142 * (0.005)^2$

$A = 7.855 * 10^{-5} \ m^2$

So

$R = 3.0 * 7.855 *10^{-5}$

$R = 2.357*10^{-4} \ m^3 /s$

When stated as a percentage, the useful energy transferred by a device divided by the total energy supplied to the device is kno

Verdich [7]

Efficiency

Explanation:

Efficiency is a ratio/percentage that is useful in comparing the energy transferred by a device to the total energy supplied to it.

Percentage efficiency = $\frac{energy input}{total energy supplied}$ x 100

As with most system, none is 100% efficient.
During energy is transferred some are lost and only a little portion is used in doing actual work by the machine.
This validates the third law of thermodynamics which proposes that no system is 100% efficient.
A 100% efficiency implies total energy input is used doing all the work.
This is impossible. The bulk of the energy goes into heating the system.
