A) +5 J

B) +1 J

Explanation:

A)

The internal forces (interaction forces) acting on a system do not change the mechanical energy (sum of potential and kinetic energy) of the system.

However, these forces are responsible for converting the energy from one form into another; the work done by these forces is equal to the amount of energy converted from one form into the other.

In this problem, we have:

\Delta U=-5 J is the loss in potential energy of the system

\Delta K=+6 J is the gain in kinetic energy of the system

By looking at these numbers, this means that the internal forces have converted 5 J of energy from potential energy into kinetic energy (while the additional +1 J missing is due to external forces, as explained in part B).

Therefore, the work done by internal forces is

W = +5 J

B)

First of all, we calculate the change in mechanical energy of the system.

The mechanical energy of a system is the sum of its kinetic energy (K) and its potential energy (U):

E=K+U

So, the change in mechanical energy is equal to the sum of the changes of kinetic energy and the changes of potential energy:

\Delta E= \Delta K + \Delta U

In this problem:

\Delta K=+6 J

\Delta U=-5 J

So, the change in mechanical energy is:

\Delta E=+6+(-5)=+1 J

According to the work-energy theorem, the work done by external forces on a system is equal to the change in mechanical energy of the system: therefore in this case, the work done by external forces is

W=\Delta E=+1 J

The blades of a metal cutter are shorter than the blades of paper cutter scissor. Give reason​
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

Metal is a tougher material to cut though, so the blades must be shorter to create more pressure to break through the metal. Paper on the other hand is easier to cut through so the blades can be longer in order to cut more in each snip.

How much heat is required to convert 0.3 kilogram of ice at 0°C to water at the same temperature
Grace [21]

Answer:

100,200J of heat is required to convert 0.3kg of ice of 0°C to water at same temperature.

Explanation:

Heat = mass * lf

Latent heat of fusion (lf) of water is 334J/g

Heat = 300g * 334 J/g

Heat = 100,200J of heat

Two concentric current loops lie in the same plane. The smaller loop has a radius of 3.4 cmcm and a current of 12 AA. The bigger
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Current in loops are

i1 = 12A

i2 = 20A

The loops are 3.4cm apart

The magnetic field at the center is found to be zero, so when want to find the radius of bigger loop

Magnetic Field is given as

B= μoi/2πr

Where,

μo is a constant = 4π×10^-7 Tm/A

r is the distance between the two wires

i is the current in the wires

B is the magnetic field

NOTE

Field due to large loop should be equal to the smaller loop.

B1 = B2

μo•i1 / 2π•r1 = μo•i2 / 2π•r2

Then, μo, 2π cancels out, so we have

i1 / r1 = i2 / r2

Make r2 subject of formula

i1•r2 = i2•r1

r2 = i2•r1 / i2

r2 = 20×3.4/12

r2 = 5.67cm

The radius of the bigger loop is 5.67cm.
