The change in internal energy of the system is +30 J

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the first law of thermodynamics, which states that the change in internal energy of a system is given by the equation:

$\Delta U = Q -W$

where

$\Delta U$ is the change in internal energy

Q is the heat absorbed by the system (positive if it is absorbed, negative if it is released)

W is the work done by the system (positive if it is done by the system, negative if it is done by the surroundings on the system)

Therefore, in this problem, we have

$Q=-60 J$ (heat released by the system)

$W=-30 J$ (work done on the system)

Therefore, the change in internal energy is

$\Delta U = -60 - (-30) = +30 J$

A man pushed a cabinet with a force of 200N. What is the mass of the cabinet that accelerates 4 m/s/s?

ELEN [110]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 50 \ kg}}$

Explanation:

We are asked to find the mass of a cabinet, given the force and acceleration. According to Newton's Second Law of Motion, force is the product of mass and acceleration. The formula for this is:

$F= m \times a$

The force is 200 Newtons, but we should convert the units to make unit cancellation easier. 1 Newton is equal to 1 kilogram meter per second squared, so the force of 200 Newtons is 200 kilogram meters per second squared.

The mass is unknown and the acceleration is 4 meters per second per second or 4 meters per second squared.

F= 200 kg*m/s²
a= 4 m/s²

Substitute the values into the formula.

$200 \ kg *m/s^2 = m \times 4 \ m/s^2$

We are solving for the mass, m, so we must isolate the variable. It is being multiplied by 4 meters per second squared. The inverse operation of multiplication is division. Divide both sides by 4 m/s²

$\frac {200 \ kg *m/s^2}{4 \ m/s^2}= \frac{m \times 4\ m/s^2}{4 \ m/s^2}$

$\frac {200 \ kg *m/s^2}{4 \ m/s^2} =m$

The units of meters per second squared cancel.

$\frac {200 \ kg }{4 }=m$

$50 \ kg =m$

The mass of the cabinet is <u>50 kilograms.</u>

A 53.0-kg skater is traveling due east at a speed of 2.90 m/s. A 72.0-kg skater is moving due south at a speed of 6.20 m/s. They

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

a. $\thta=71^{\circ}$

b. $v_f=3.78 m/s$

Explanation:

We are given that

$m_1=53 kg$

$v_1=2.9 m/s$

$m_2= 72 kg$

$v_2=6.2 m/s$

a.We have to find the angle

$\theta=tan^{-1}{\frac{m_2v_2}{m_1v_1}=\frac{72(6.2)}{53(2.9)}=71^{\circ}$

$\theta=71^{\circ}$

b. We have to find the speed $v_f$

According to law of conservation of momentum

$m_1v_1=(m_1+m_2)v_fcos\theta$

$53(2.9)=(53+72)v_fcos 71^{\circ}=40.7 v_f$

$v_f=\frac{153.7}{40.7}=3.78 m/s$
