Answer:

(a) W=1.20×10⁴J

(b) U= -5.46×10⁴J

(c) Q= -4.26×10⁴J

Explanation:

Given that student does 1.20×10⁴J work

(a) W=1.20×10⁴J

Work done by student,so positive sign

During the process, his internal energy decreases by 5.46×10⁴J.

(b) U= -5.46×10⁴J.

As the Energy decreases therefore negative sign

For (c) Q

We know the formula

Q=W+U\\Q=1.2*10^{4}+(-5.46*10^{4} )\\ Q=-4.26*10^{4}J

A girl rides her bike 5.4 km due east. While riding she experiences a resistive force from the air that has a magnitude of 3.1 N
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

(A) = 34,560 J

(B) Work done during the round trip is not zero, hence the resistive force is not a conservative force.

Explanation:

This question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

A girl rides her bike 5.4 km due east. While riding she experiences a resistive force from the air that has a magnitude of 3.1 N and points due west. She then turns around and rides due west, back to her starting point. The resistive force from the air on the return trip has a magnitude of 3.3 N and points due east.? (a) Find the work done by the resistive force during the round trip. (b) Based on your answer to part (a), is the resistive force a conservative force? Explain.

SOLUTION:

distance covered by the girl due east (De) = 5.4 km = 5400 m

magnitude of resistive force by the air (Fw) = 3.1 N due west

distance covered by the girl due west (Dw) = 5.4 km = 5400 m

magnitude of resistive force by the air (Fe) = 3.3 N due east

(A) to find the work done by the resistive force during the round trip we have to get the work done by the resistive force due west and add it to the work done by the resistive force due east

  • work done by the resistive force due west = (Fw.cosθ) x De

        where θ is the angle between the displacement and the force. The    

        displacement is due east while the force is due west, hence θ = 180°

       work done (W1) = (3.1 x cos 180) x 5400 = -16,740 j

  • work done by the resistive force due east = (Fe.cosθ) x Dw

        where θ is the angle between the displacement and the force. The    

        displacement is due west while the force is due east, hence θ = 180°

       work done (W2) = (3.3 x cos 180) x 5400 = -17,820 j

Hence work done during the round trip = W1 + W2 = (-16,740 ) + (-17,820)

= 34,560 J

(B) A conservative force is a force in which the work done by the force in moving an object around a closed path is zero. From part (A) above the work done during the round trip is not zero, hence the resistive force is not a conservative force.

A small solid sphere and a small thin hoop are rolling along a horizontal surface with the same translational speed when they en
torisob [31]
This situation has a basis such that the solid sphere and the hoop has the same mass. The analysis could be made<span> backwards . The ball will decelerate fastest, so not roll as high. The sphere will accelerate faster, but this also means it decelerates faster on the way up. Hence the answer is the hoop if the masses are equal </span>

I need help answering 30A and B. Help a guy out?
dmitriy555 [2]

Uh so I'm no master at this subject, but all stuffs accelerate at 9.8 m/s squared. So you multiply the 9.8 and the 0.20 it's given for reasons unknown other than that's what I see in my notes... and that gives you 1.96 m/s squared.

As for B, I have no idea. I think you may multiply the 1.96 by 4. Tell me your thoughts and maybe we can work it out together
