A constant force of 45 N directed at angle θ to the horizontal pulls a crate of weight 100 N from one end of a room to another a

Rasek [7]

Answer:

$W=173.48J$

Explanation:

information we know:

Total force: $F=45N$

Weight: $w=100N$

distance: $4m$

vertical component of the force: $F_{y}=12N$

-------------

In this case we need the formulas to calculate the components of the force (because to calculate the work we need the horizontal component of the force).

horizontal component: $F_{x}=Fcos\theta$

vertical component: $F_{y}=Fsen\theta$

but from the given information we know that $F_{y}=12N$

so, equation these two $F_{y}=Fsen\theta$ and $F_{y}=12N$

$Fsen\theta =12N$

and we know the force $F=45N$ , thus:

$45sen\theta=12$

now we clear for $\theta$

$sen\theta =12/45\\\theta=sin^{-1}(12/45)\\\theta =15.466$

the angle to the horizontal is 15.466°, with this information we can calculate the horizontal component of the force:

$F_{x}=Fcos\theta$

$F_{x}=45cos(15.466)\\F_{x}=43.37N$

whith this horizontal component we calculate the work to move the crate a distance of 4 m:

$W=F_{x}*D\\W=(43.37N)(4m)\\W=173.48J$

the work done is W=173.48J

The inner planets are different from the outer planets mainly because they are:.

amm1812

Answer:

The inner planets are closer to the Sun and are smaller and rockier. The outer planets are further away, larger and made up mostly of gas. The inner planets (in order of distance from the sun, closest to furthest) are Mercury, Venus , Earth and Mars.

The collision between a hammer and a nail can be considered to be approximately elastic. estimate the kinetic energy acquired by

Setler [38]

Here we can use momentum conservation as in this type of collision there is no external force on it

$m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1 v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}$

now here we can say

$m_1 = 10 g$

$v_{1i} = 0$

$m_2 = 550 g$

$v_{2i} = 3.5 m/s$

now here we can say

$10*0 + 550 * 3.5 = 10 v_{1f} + 550 v_{2f}$

$192.5 = v_{1f} + 55 v_{2f}$

now by coefficient of restitution

for elastic collision we know that e = 1

$v_{2f} - v_{1f} = e(v_{1i} - v_{2i})$

$v_{2f} - v_{1f} = 0 - 3.5$

now by solving the two equation

$56v_{2f} = 189$

$v_{2f} = 3.375 m/s$

also we know that

$v_{1f} = v_{2f} + 3.5 = 3.375 + 3.5 = 6.875 m/s$

so final speed of the nail is 6.875 m/s

An air compressor compresses 6 L of air at 120 kPa and 22°C to 1000 kPa and 400°C. Determine the flow work, in kJ/kg, required b

Mariana [72]

Answer:

The work flow required by the compressor = 100.67Kj/kg

Explanation:

The solution to this question is obtained from the energy balance where the initial and final specific internal energies and enthalpies are taken from A-17 table from the given temperatures using interpolation .

The work flow can be determined using the equation:

M1h1 + W = Mh2

U1 + P1alph1 + ◇U + Workflow = U2 + P2alpha2

Workflow = P2alpha2 - P1alpha1

Workflow = (h2 -U2) - (h1 - U1)

Workflow = ( 684.344 - 491.153) - ( 322.483 - 229.964)

Workflow = ( 193.191 - 92.519)Kj/kg

Workflow = 100.672Kj/kg

A system gains 1500 J of heat, while the internal energy of the system increases by 4500 J and the volume decreases by . Assume

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Hence the pressure is $3\times 10^5 Pa$

Explanation:

Given data

Q=1500 J system gains heat

ΔV=- 0.010 m^3 there is a decrease in volume

ΔU= 4500 J internal energy decrease

We know work done is

W= Q- ΔU

=1500-4500= -3000 J

The change in the volume at constant pressure is

ΔV= W/P

there fore P = W/ΔV= -3000/-0.01= 3×10^5

Hence the pressure is $3\times 10^5 Pa$
