vichka [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:-683 cal

Explanation:

Given

Heat released by system Q=-255 cal

as heat released is taken as negative and vice-versa

Work done by system W=428 cal

From First law of thermodynamics

Q=\Delta +W , where \Delta U=change in internal Energy

\Delta U=-255-428=-683

The electric potential at the surface of a charged conductor _______.
frez [133]

Answer:

The electric potential at the surface of a charged conductor<u> is always such that the potential is zero at all points inside the conductor.</u>

Explanation:

Each point on the surface of a balanced charged conductor has the same electrical potential.

The surface on any charged conductor in electrostatic equilibrium is an equipotential surface. Since the electric field is equal to zero inside the conductor, the electric potential at any point inside and on the surface is equivalent to its value.

A street light is mounted at the top of a 15-ft-tall pole. A man 6 ft tall walks away from the pole with a speed of 4 ft/s along
babymother [125]

Answer:

Explanation:

height of pole = 15 ft

height of man = 6 ft

Let the length of shadow is y .

According to the diagram

Let at any time the distance of man is x.

The two triangles are similar

\frac{y-x}{y}=\frac{6}{15}

15 y - 15 x = 6 y

9 y = 15 x

y=\frac{5}{3}x

Differentiate with respect to time.

\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{5}{3}\frac{dx}{dt}

As given, dx/dt = 4 ft/s

\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{5}{3}\times 4

\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{20}{3} ft/s

A tank contains 350 liters of fluid in which 10 grams of salt is dissolved. Brine containing 1 gram of salt per liter is then pu
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

A(t) = -340e^{-t/70} + 350

Explanation:

Since fluid is pumping in and out at the same rate (5L/min), the total fluid volume in the tank stays constant at 350L. Only the amount of salt and its concentration changed overtime.

Let A(t) be the amount of salt (g) at time t and C(t) (g/L) be the concentration at time t

A(0) = 10 g

Brine with concentration of 1g/L is pouring in at the rate of 5L/min so the salt income rate is 5 g/min

The well-mixed solution is pouring out at the rate of 5L/min at concentration C(t) so the salt outcome rate is 5C g/min

But the concentration is total amount of salt over 350L constant volume

C = A / 350

Therefore our rate of change for salt A' is

A' = 5 - 5A/350 = 5 - A/70

This is a first-order linear ordinary differential equation and it has the form of y' = a + by. The solution of this is

y = ce^{bt} + \frac{a}{b}

So A = ce^{\frac{-t}{70}} + \frac{5}{1/70} = ce^{-t/70} + 350

with A(0) = 10

c + 350 = 10

c = 10 - 350 = -340

A(t) = -340e^{-t/70} + 350

A piece of plastic with a mass of 15 g is
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

The density of plastic is equal to 0.6 g/mL.

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of piece of plastic, m = 15 g

It is placed in a graduated cylinder. The water  level in the graduated cylinder rises from  30 mL to 55 mL when the plastic is added.

We need to find the density of plastic.

Rise in volume = 55 mL - 30 mL

= 25 mL

The density of an object is given by :

d=\dfrac{m}{V}\\\\d=\dfrac{15\ g}{25\ mL}\\\\d=0.6\ g/mL

So, the density of plastic is equal to 0.6 g/mL.

The force P is applied to the 45-kg block when it is at rest. Determine the magnitude and direction of the friction force exerte
cluponka [151]

Answer:

Check attachment for free body diagram of the question.

I used the free body diagram and the angles given in the diagram missing in the question above, but I used the data given in the above question.

Explanation:

Let frictional force be Fr acting down the plane

Let analyze the structure before inserting values

Using Newton's second law along the y-axis

ΣFy = Fnet = m•ay

Since the body is not moving in the y-direction, then ay = 0

N+PSinβ — WCosθ = 0

N+PSin20—441.45Cos15 = 0

N+PSin20—426.41 = 0

N = 426.41 — PSin20 , equation 1

The maximum Frictional force to be overcome is given as

Fr(max) = μsN

Fr(max) = 0.25(426.41 — PSin20)

Fr(max)= 106.6 —0.25•PSin20

Fr(max) = 106.6 — 0.08551P, equation 2

This is the maximum force that must be overcome before the body starts to move

Using Newton's law of motion in the x direction

Note, we took the upward direction up the plane as the direction of motion since the force want to move the block upward

Fnetx = ΣFx

Fnetx = P•Cosβ —W•Sinθ — Fr

Fnetx = P•Cos20—441.45•Sin15—Fr

Fnetx = 0.9397P — 114.256 — Fr

Equation 3

When Fnetx is positive, then, the body is moving up the plane, if Fnetx is negative, then, the maximum frictional force has not yet being overcome and the object is still i.e. not moving

a. When P = 0

From equation 2

Fr(max) = 106.6 — 0.08551P

Fr(max) = 106.6 — 0.08551(0)

Fr(max)= 106.6 N

So, 106.6N is the maximum force to be overcome

So, here the only force acting on the body is the weight and it acting down the plane, trying to move the body downward.

Wx = WSinθ

Wx = 441.45× Sin15

Wx = 114.256 N.

Since the force trying to move the body downward is greater than the maximum static frictional force, then the body is not in equilibrium, it is moving downward.

So, finding the magnitude of frictional force

From equation 1

N = 426.41 — PSin20 , equation 1

N = 426.41 N, since P=0

Then, using law of kinetic friction

Fr = μk • N

Fr = 0.22 × 426.41

Fr = 93.81 N.

b. Now, when P = 190N

From equation 2

Fr(max) = 106.6 — 0.08551(190)

Fr(max) = 106.6 —16.2469

Fr(max)= 90.353 N

So, 90.353 N is the maximum force to be overcome

Now the force acting on the x axis is the horizontal component of P and the horizontal component of the weight

Fnetx = P•Cosβ —W•Sinθ

Fnetx = 190Cos20 — 441.45Sin15

Fnetx = 64.29N

So the force moving the body up the incline plane is 64.29N

Fnetx < Fr(max)

Then, the frictional force has not being overcome yet.

Then, the body is in equilibrium.

Then, applying equation 3.

Fnetx = 0.9397P — 114.256 — Fr

Fnetx = 0, since the body is not moving

0 = 0.9397(190) —114.246 — Fr

Fr = 64.297 N

Fr ≈ 64.3N

c. When, P = 268N

From equation 2

Fr(max) = 106.6 — 0.08551(268)

Fr(max) = 106.6 —16.2469

Fr(max)= 83.68 N

So, 83.68 N is the maximum force to be overcome

Now the force acting on the x axis is the horizontal component of P and the horizontal component of the weight

Fnetx = P•Cosβ —W•Sinθ

Fnetx = 268Cos20 — 441.45Sin15

Fnetx = 137.58 N

So the force moving the body up the incline plane is 137.58 N

Fnetx > Fr(max)

Then, the frictional force has being overcome.

Then, the body is not equilibrium.

So, finding the magnitude of frictional force

From equation 1

N = 426.41 — 268Sin20 , equation 1

N = 334.75 N, since P=268N

Then, using law of kinetic friction

Fr = μk • N

Fr = 0.22 × 334.75

Fr = 73.64 N

d. The required force to initiate motion is the force when the block want to overcome maximum frictional force.

So, Fnetx = Fr(max)

Px — Wx = Fr(max)

From equation 1

Fr(max) = 106.6 — 0.08551P,

P•Cosβ-W•Sinθ = 106.6 — 0.08551P

P•Cos20 — 441.45•Sin15 = 106.6 — 0.08551P

P•Cos20—114.256=106.6 - 0.08551P

PCos20+0.08551P =106.6 + 114.256

1.025P=220.856

P = 220.856/1.025

P = 215.43 N
