A person pulls a bucket of water up from a well with a rope. Assume the initial and final speeds of the bucket are zero (Vi-Vf-0

), and that the person lifted the bucket a vertical distance h. By looking at energy changes in the bucket-Earth physical system, we can make sense of the force the person must exert to pull the bucket up and the amount of work the person does. a) Think about whether this is an open or closed system. What energy systems undergo a change in energy during the process? Construct a particular Energy-System Diagram for this process and include the algebraic expression of energy conservation (in terms of AE's and if open, any Heat or Work). b) Substitute the algebraic expression we use for the change in gravitational potential energy and solve algebraically for the work done by the person on the rope/bucket. c) Use the definition of work in terms of force and distance (see p.39-40 of Chapter 2 in the Course Notes) to find the average force exerted by the person on the rope and bucket while they are lifting it up.

Answer:

a

This a closed system because the mass of the system is conserved

The energy system that undergoes change is the Potential energy system

The energy system diagram is shown on the first uploaded image

b

Work done = Change in gravitational potential energy

So solving algebraically for work done would be

    Work done   = m*g*h

where m is mass

          g is acceleration due to gravity

          and h is the height

c

Work done in terms of force and distance is = mg

where  m is mass of bucket and

            g is acceleration due to gravity  

Explanation:

a) At the start, potential and kinetic energy were zero. so, energy is zero.

As the person pulls the bucket up, the potential energy becomes mgh.

so,final energy will be consisting of only potential energy.

B) Here work done is equal to change in gravitational potential energy.

W = \Delta P.E

W = m*g*h

where g = 9.9 m/s^2

C) Work = force * distance

mgh = force * h

force = mg

force = weight of bucket

The cannon on a battleship can fire a shell a maximum distance of 26.0 km.
Alla [95]
It is possible to demonstrate that the maximum distance occurs when the angle at which the projectile is fired is \theta = 45^{\circ}.
In fact, the laws of motions on both x- and y- directions are
S_x(t)= v_0 cos \theta t
S_y(t)= v_0 \sin \theta t -  \frac{1}{2} gt^2
From the second equation, we get the time t at which the projectile hits the ground, by requiring S_y(t)=0, and we get:
t= \frac{2 v_0 \sin \theta}{g}
And inserting this value into Sx(t), we find
S_x(t) = 2  \frac{v_0^2}{g}  \sin \theta \cos \theta= \frac{v_0^2}{g} \sin (2\theta)
And this value is maximum when \theta=45^{\circ}, so this is the angle at which the projectile reaches its maximum distance.

So now we can take again the law of motion on the x-axis
S_x(t)=  \frac{v_0^2}{g} \sin (2\theta)
And by using S_x = 26 km=26000 m, we find the value of the initial velocity v0:
v_0 =  \sqrt{ \frac{S_x g}{\sin (2\theta)} } = \sqrt{ \frac{(26000m)(9.81m/s^2)}{\sin (2\cdot 45^{\circ})} } =505 m/s

Drag each circle to the correct location on the image. Each circle can be used more than once, but not all circles will be used.
Valentin [98]

Based on the given information, the type of boundaries these two new plates would share with each other and the Arabian Plate are divergent boundaries.

<h3>Who are geologists?</h3>

A geologist is a scientist who studies the solid, liquid, and gaseous matter that constitutes Earth and other planets.

Geologists have observed that a portion of Africa is breaking away from the main continent. This is happening because the African Plate is in the process of splitting up into two parts. Scientists have named the two new tectonic plates the Nubian Plate and Somalian Plate. Both of these plates are not only moving away from each other but also away from the Arabian Plate.

There are 3 types of boundaries.

At convergent boundaries, the two tectonic plates comes closer to each other.

At divergent boundaries,  the plates move away from each other.

At transform boundaries,  the plates are moving parallel to their boundary.

Based on this, all boundaries will be divergent boundaries.
