A 20000 kg subway train initially traveling at 18.5 m/s slows to a stop in a station and then stays there long enough for its br

akes to cool. The station's dimensions are 65.0 m long by 20.0 m wide by 12.0 m high.Assuming all the work done by the brakes in stopping the train is transferred as heat uniformly to all the air in the station, by how much does the air temperature in the station rise? Take the density of the air to be 1.20 kg/m3 and its specific heat to be 1020 J/(kg*K).

Answer:

rise the air temperature is 0.179241 K

Explanation:

Given data

mass = 20000 kg

velocity  = 18.5 m/s

long = 65 m

wide = 20 m

height = 12 m

density of the air = 1.20 kg/ m³

specific heat = 1020 J/(kg*K)

to find out

how much does the air temperature in the station rise

solution

we know here Energy lost by the train that is calculated by  

loss in the kinetic energy that is = 1/2 m v²

loss in the kinetic energy = 0.5 × 20000 ×18.5²

loss in the kinetic energy  is 3422500 J

and

this energy is used here to rise the air temperature that is KE / ( specific hat × mass )

so here  

air volume = 65 ×20×12

air volume = 15600 m³

air mass  =  ρ × V = 1.2 × 15600

air mass = 18720 kg

so

rise the air temperature = 3422500 / ( 1020 × 18720)

rise the air temperature is 0.179241 K

raketka [301]

Answer:s=0.68 m

Explanation:

Given

Inclination \theta =11.1^{\circ}

Speed of block(u)=1.6 m/s

Coefficient of kinetic Friction \mu _k=0.39

deceleration provided by friction=g\sin \theta -\mu _kg\cos \theta [/tex]

Using v^2-u^2=2as

Final velocity v=0

0-1.6^2=2(g\sin \theta -\mu _kg\cos \theta )s

s=\frac{-1.6^2}{2\cdot (9.8\sin 11.1-0.39\times 9.8\times \cos 11.1)}

s=0.68 m

) a 1.0 kilogram laboratory cart moving with a velocity of 0.50 meter per second due east collides with and sticks to a similar
ZanzabumX [31]
Momentum would be the same before and after the collision
 Before the collision:
 Momentum of the single cart: 1 * 0.50 = 0.50
 After the collision
 velocity = 0.25m / s
 1 * 0.25 + 1 * 0.25 =
 0.25 * (1 + 1) =
 0.25 * 2 =
 0.50
 Now new momentum will be 0.5

David is investigating the properties of soil using the sample shown.
xenn [34]

Although the sample is not shown in this question, we can conclude that it would be reasonably easy for David to provide evidence of the color, consistency, temperature, and texture of the soil.

<h3 />

<h3>What are these properties an example of?</h3>

These are all examples of the physical properties of a sample. Since we cannot see the sample that David is using, it would be safest to assume that he would have no trouble providing evidence as to the physical properties of the soil, the:

  • Color
  • Consistency
  • Temperature
  • Texture

are all examples of this.

Therefore, we can confirm that David can provide evidence of the color, consistency, temperature, and texture of the soil.
