After the box comes to rest at position x1, a person starts pushing the box, giving it a speed v1. when the box reaches position

x2 (where x2>x1), how much work wp has the person done on the box? assume that the box reaches x2 after the person has accelerated it from rest to speed v1. express the work in terms of m, v0, x1, x2, and v1.

As we know by work energy theorem

total work done = change in kinetic energy

so here we can say that wok done on the box will be equal to the change in kinetic energy of the system

W_p = KE_f - KE_i

initial the box is at rest at position x = x1

so initial kinetic energy will be ZERO

at final position x = x2 final kinetic energy is given as

KE_f = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2

now work done is given as

W_p = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2 - 0

so we can say

W_p = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2

so above is the work done on the box to slide it from x1 to x2

What happens to your kinectic energy when your gravitational potential energy decreases?
leonid [27]

Answer:

As r decreases, we lose gravitational potential energy - in other words, U G U_G UG​U, start subscript, G, end subscript becomes more negative. Because energy is conserved, the velocity must increase, resulting in an increase in kinetic energy.

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

There is a loss of fluid in the  container of 0.475L

Explanation:

To solve the problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to the change of voumen in a substance depending on the temperature.

The formula that describes this thermal expansion process is given by:

\Delta V = \beta V_0 \Delta T

Where,

\Delta V =Change in volume

V_0 =Initial Volume

\Delta T = Change in temperature

\beta = coefficient of volume expansion (Coefficient of copper and of the liquid for this case)

There are two types of materials in the container, liquid and copper, so we have to change the amount of Total Volume that would be subject to,

\Delta V_T = \Delta V_l - \Delta V_c

Where,

\Delta V_l= Change in the volume of liquid

\Delta V_c= Change in the volume of copper

Then replacing with the previous equation we have:

\Delta V = \beta_l V_0 \Delta T- \beta_c V_0 \Delta T

\Delta V = (\beta_l-\beta_c)V_0\Delta T

Our values are given as,

Thermal expansion coefficient for copper and the liquid to 20°C is

\beta_c = 51*10^{-6}/\°C

\beta_l = 400*10^{-6}/\°C

V_0 = 16L

\Delta T = (95\°C-10\°C)

Replacing we have that,

\Delta V = (\beta_l-\beta_c)V_0\Delta T

\Delta V = (400*10^{-6}/\°C-51*10^{-6}/\°C)(16L)(95\°C-10\°C)

\Delta V = 0.475L

Therefore there is a loss of fluid in the container of 0.475L

miv72 [106K]

Answer: The bond that hold water molecules together are due to shared electrons. The bond of shared electrons is known as a covalent bond.

Explanation:  Water is held together by bonds known as covalent bonds, in which electrons are shared by the elements. In this case, the two hydrogen atoms and the one oxygen atom share a bond in which they share electrons, attaining a full outer shell.
