A bowling ball of mass 5 kg rolls down a slick ramp 20 meters long at a 30 degree angle to the horizontal. What is the work done

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

The work done by gravity during the roll is 490.6 J

Explanation:

The work (W) is:

$W = F*d$

<em>Where</em>:

F: is the force

d: is the displacement = 20 m

The force is equal to the weight (W) in the x component:

$F = W_{x} = mgsin(\theta)$

<em>Where:</em>

m: is the mass of the bowling ball = 5 kg

g: is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²

θ: is the degree angle to the horizontal = 30°

$F = mgsin(\theta) = 5 kg*9.81 m/s^{2}*sin(30) = 24.53 N$

Now, we can find the work:

$W = F*d = 24.53 N*20 m = 490.6 J$

Therefore, the work done by gravity during the roll is 490.6 J.

I hope it helps you!

A 50-kg copper block initially at 140Â°c is dropped into an insulated tank that contains 90 l of water at 10Â°c. Determine the f

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

$T_f=24.71$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass of block $m=50$

Temperature of block $T_b =140 \textdegree C$

Volume of water $V= 90L$

Temperature of water $T_w=10 \textdegree C$

Density of water $\rho=1000kg/m^3$

Specific heat of water $C_w=4.18KJ/kg-k$

Specific heat of copper $C_p=0.96KJ/kg-k$

Generally the equation for equilibrium stage is mathematically given by

$mC_p(T_b-T_f)=\rho*VV*c(T_f-T_w)$

$50*0.96(140-T_f)=1000*90*10^-3*c_w(T_f-10)$

$48(140-T_f)=376.2(T_f-10)$

$140-T_f=7.8375(T_f-10)$

$140-T_f=7.8375T_f-78.375$

$-8.8375T_f=-218.375$

$T_f=\frac{-218.375}{-8.8375}$

$T_f=\frac{-218.375}{-8.8375}$

$T_f=24.71$
