A girl is shown at position A on a swing when the seat is directly below the support bar. The seat is then at height A as shown

by a grey arrow and grey line. When she swings up and to the right to position B when the seat is at height B as shown by a grey arrow and grey line. At which position, A or B, is the potential energy of the swing the greatest? As the swing moves from point B to point A, which form of energy is increasing, kinetic or potential?

Answer:

<u></u>

  • <u>1. The potential energy of the swing is the greatest at the position B.</u>

  • <u>2. As the swing moves from point B to point A, the kinetic energy is increasing.</u>

Explanation:

Even though the syntax of the text is not completely clear, likely because it accompanies a drawing that is not included, it results clear that the posittion A is where the seat is at the lowest position, and the position B is upper.

The gravitational <em>potential energy </em>is directly proportional to the height of the objects with respect to some reference altitude. Thus, when the seat is at the position A the swing has the smallest potential energy and when the seat is at the <em>position B the swing has the greatest potential energy.</em>

Regarding the forms of energy, as the swing moves from point B to point A, it is going downward, gaining kinetic energy (speed) at the expense of the potential energy (losing altitude). When the seat passes by the position A, the kinetic energy is maximum and the potential energy is miminum. Then the seat starts to gain altitude again, losing the kinetic energy and gaining potential energy, up to it gets to the other end,

Air expands isentropically from 2.2 MPa and 77°C to 0.4 MPa. Calculate the ratio of the initial to the final speed of sound.
djyliett [7]

Answer:

The ratio of initial to final speed of sound is given as 1.28.

Explanation:

As per the thermodynamic relation of isentropic expansion

\frac{T_2}{T_1}=(\frac{P_2}{P_1})^{\frac{k-1}{k}}

Here

  • P_1 is the pressure at point 1 which is given as 2.2 MPa
  • T_1 is the temperature at point 1 which is given as 77 °C  or 273+77=350K
  • P_2 is the pressure at point 1 which is given as 0.4 MPa
  • T_2 is the temperature at point 2 which is to be calculated
  • k is the ratio of specific heats given as 1.4

Substituting values in the equation

                                      \frac{T_2}{350}=(\frac{0.4}{2.2})^{\frac{1.4-1}{1.4}}\\\frac{T_2}{350}=(0.18)^{0.2857}\\T_2=(0.18)^{0.2857} \times 350 \\T_2=0.61266 \times 350\\T_2=214.43 K

As speed of sound c is given as

c=\sqrt{kRT}

for initial to final values it is given as

\frac{c_i}{c_f}=\frac{\sqrt{k_1R_1T_1}}{\sqrt{k_2R_2T_2}}

As values of k and R is constant so the ratio is given as

\frac{c_i}{c_f}=\sqrt{\frac{T_1}{T_2}}

Substituting values give

\frac{c_i}{c_f}=\sqrt{\frac{350}{214.43}}\\\frac{c_i}{c_f}=\sqrt{1.63}}\\\frac{c_i}{c_f}=1.277  \approx 1.28

So the ratio of initial to final speed of sound is 1.28.

What is the total moved without regard to direction​
soldi70 [24.7K]

The entire motion of an object, regardless of direction.

In physics, motion is that the phenomenon in which an object changes its position with respect to time. Motion is mathematically described in terms of displacement, distance, velocity, acceleration, speed, and frame of regard to an observer and measuring the change in position of the body relative to that frame with change in time. The branch of physics describing the motion of objects without regard to their cause is called kinematics, while the branch studying forces and their effect on motion are named dynamics.

If an object isn't changing relative to a given frame of reference,  the thing is said to be at rest, motionless, immobile, stationary, or to possess a constant or time-invariant position with reference to its surroundings. Modern physics holds that, as  there's no absolute frame of reference, Newton's concept of absolute motion can't be  determined

A process generates 250 watts of useful energy and 600 watts of waste energy. WhT is the efficiency of the process?
Cloud [144]

The efficiency of the process is 42%

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Useful energy = 250 watt

Wasteful energy = 600 watt

<h3>Efficiency =? </h3>

The efficiency of the process can be obtained as illustrated below:

efficiency \:  =  \frac{useful \: energy}{wasteful \: energy}  \times 100 \\  \\ efficiency \:  =  \frac{250}{600}  \times 100 \\

<h3>Efficiency = 42%</h3>

Therefore, the efficiency of the process is 42%

28. Which of the following correctly shows the order of highest amount of friction to the lowest amount of
Bad White [126]

Answer:

\mathrm{d.\:Static,\: Sliding,\:Rolling}

Explanation:

Static friction occurs when an object initially starts at rest. When the surfaces of the materials touch, the microscopic unevenness interlock greatest with each other, causing the most friction out of the three.

During sliding friction, an object is already moving or in motion. The microscopic surfaces still interlock, but because the object is in motion, it has a momentum. Therefore, the magnitude of sliding friction is less than that of static friction.

Rolling friction occurs when an object rolls across some surface. Rather than surfaces interlocking, rolling friction is caused by the constant distortion of surfaces. As it rolls, the surfaces of the object are constantly wrapping and changing. This distortion causes the rolling friction. However, it is much less in magnitude when compared to static or sliding friction.
