Answer:

<h2><u>Joule</u><u>:</u></h2>

1 Joule of work is said to be done when a force of 1 Newton is applied to move/displace a body by 1 metre.

1 Joule= 1 Newton × 1 metre

1 Newton is the amount of force required to accelerate body of mass 1 kg by 1m/s²

So units of N is kgm/s²

So,

1 Joule

=1kgm/s² × m

=1kgm²/s²

<h2><u>Erg</u><u>:</u></h2>

1 erg is the amount of work done by a force of 1 dyne exerted for a distance of one centimetre.

1 Erg =1 Dyne × 1 cm

1 dyne is the force required to cause a mass of 1 gram to accelerate at a rate of 1cm/s².

1 Erg=1 gmcm/s² × cm

1 Erg=1 gmcm/s² × cm=1gmcm²/s²

this is what you need to convert 1gmcm²/s² to 1kgm²/s²

<h3><u>what you need to know for conversion</u></h3>

[1gm=0.001kg

1cm²

=1cm ×1cm

=0.01 m × 0.01 m

=0.0001m²

second remains constant

]

So,

1gmcm²/s²

=0.001kg×0.0001m²/s²

=0.001kg×0.0001m²/s² =0.0000001kgm²/s²

Hence,

<h3><u>1 Erg</u><u>=</u><u>0.0000001</u><u> </u><u>Joule</u></h3><h3><u>1</u><u> </u><u>Joule</u><u>=</u><u>1</u><u>0</u><u>,</u><u>0</u><u>0</u><u>0</u><u>,</u><u>0</u><u>0</u><u>0</u><u> </u><u>Erg</u></h3>

<h2>⇒15 J=15×10000000 Erg</h2><h2> =150000000 Erg</h2><h2> =1.5×10⁶ Erg</h2>

A playground slide is inclined 40°. If a boy with a mass of 32 kg slides down for -3meters. How much work is done by gravity on
telo118 [61]

Answer:

the work done by gravity on the boy is 604.62 J

Explanation:

Given;

distance the boy slides, d = 3 m

angle of inclination of the playground, θ = 40⁰

mass of the boy, m = 32 kg

The vertical height, h, above the ground through which the boy falls represents the height of the triangle which is the opposite side.

The distance through which the boy slides, d, represents the hypotenuse side of the right triangle.

sin \theta = \frac{opposite }{hypotenuse} \\\\sin \theta = \frac{h}{d} \\\\h = dsin\theta\\\\h = 3 \times sin(40^0)\\\\h = 1.928 \ m

The work done by gravity on the boy is calculated as;

W = P.E = mgh

             = 32kg x 9.8m/s² x 1.928m

             = 604.62 J

Therefore, the work done by gravity on the boy is 604.62 J

A firefighter with a weight of 707 N slides down a vertical pole with an acceleration of 2.79 m/s2, directed downward. (a) What
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

The vertical force acting on the firefighter = 908.27 N

Explanation:

Force: Force of a body is defined as the product of mass and its acceleration. The S.I unit of force is Newton (N)

The vertical force acting on the firefighter = Force due to the weight of the firefighter + force due to acceleration.

Ft = Fw - Fa

Where Ft = The vertical force acting on the firefighter, Fw = Force due to the weight of the firefighter, Fa = force due to acceleration.

Fw = mg

Making m the subject of formula in the equation above

m = Fw/g................... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the firefighter, g = acceleration due to gravity,

<em>Given: Fw = 707 N, </em>

<em> Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²</em>

Substituting these values into eqaution 1

m = 707/9.8

m = 72.14 kg.

But, Fa = ma

Where a = acceleration of the firefighter.

<em>Given: a = 2.79 m/s², </em>

<em>And m = 72.14 kg</em>

Fa = 72.14 × 2.79

Fa = 201.27 N

Therefore, Ft = 707 + 201.27  = 908.27 N

Ft = 908.27 N

The vertical force acting on the firefighter = 908.27 N

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

There is a loss of fluid in the  container of 0.475L

Explanation:

To solve the problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to the change of voumen in a substance depending on the temperature.

The formula that describes this thermal expansion process is given by:

\Delta V = \beta V_0 \Delta T

Where,

\Delta V =Change in volume

V_0 =Initial Volume

\Delta T = Change in temperature

\beta = coefficient of volume expansion (Coefficient of copper and of the liquid for this case)

There are two types of materials in the container, liquid and copper, so we have to change the amount of Total Volume that would be subject to,

\Delta V_T = \Delta V_l - \Delta V_c

Where,

\Delta V_l= Change in the volume of liquid

\Delta V_c= Change in the volume of copper

Then replacing with the previous equation we have:

\Delta V = \beta_l V_0 \Delta T- \beta_c V_0 \Delta T

\Delta V = (\beta_l-\beta_c)V_0\Delta T

Our values are given as,

Thermal expansion coefficient for copper and the liquid to 20°C is

\beta_c = 51*10^{-6}/\°C

\beta_l = 400*10^{-6}/\°C

V_0 = 16L

\Delta T = (95\°C-10\°C)

Replacing we have that,

\Delta V = (\beta_l-\beta_c)V_0\Delta T

\Delta V = (400*10^{-6}/\°C-51*10^{-6}/\°C)(16L)(95\°C-10\°C)

\Delta V = 0.475L

Therefore there is a loss of fluid in the container of 0.475L
