Answer:

(a) max. height = 3.641 m

(b) flight time = 1.723 s

(c) horizontal range = 31.235 m

(d) impact velocity = 20 m/s

Above values have been given to third decimal.  Adjust significant figures to suit accuracy required.

Explanation:

This problem requires the use of kinematics equations

v1^2-v0^2=2aS .............(1)

v1.t + at^2/2 = S ............(2)

where

v0=initial velocity

v1=final velocity

a=acceleration

S=distance travelled

SI units and degrees will be used throughout

Let

theta = angle of elevation = 25 degrees above horizontal

v=initial velocity at 25 degrees elevation in m/s

a = g = -9.81 = acceleration due to gravity (downwards)

(a) Maximum height

Consider vertical direction,

v0 = v sin(theta) = 8.452 m/s

To find maximum height, we find the distance travelled when vertical velocity = 0, i.e. v1=0,

solve for S in equation (1)

v1^2 - v0^2 = 2aS

S = (v1^2-v0^2)/2g = (0-8.452^2)/(2*(-9.81)) = 3.641 m/s

(b) total flight time

We solve for the time t when the vertical height of the object is AGAIN = 0.

Using equation (2) for vertical direction,

v0*t + at^2/2 = S    substitute values

8.452*t + (-9.81)t^2 = 3.641

Solve for t in the above quadratic equation to get t=0, or t=1.723 s.

So time for the flight = 1.723 s

(c) Horiontal range

We know the horizontal velocity is constant (neglect air resistance) at

vh = v*cos(theta) = 25*cos(25) = 18.126 m/s

Time of flight = 1.723 s

Horizontal range = 18.126 m/s * 1.723 s = 31.235 m

(d) Magnitude of object on hitting ground, Vfinal

By symmetry of the trajectory, Vfinal = v = 20, or

Vfinal = sqrt(v0^2+vh^2) = sqrt(8.452^2+18.126^2) = 20 m/s

Okay let me walk you through this, a resistor resists right? its in the name. so you can guess that it would be 4th one down, because if you resist you don't stop, you just slow down. So you should definitely know current is energy, and since electrons is energy you know that current is the second one down. You already have two. Heres a good test taking strategy, the first one says "materials that do conduct electricity just not as well as conductors" so you know that something that conducts electricity well is a conductor, the third one down. now you have 3/5 and you haven't used any real knowledge. So now you are stuck between something that blocks electricity and something that is okay with it. Since you know a conductor does good, wouldnt a semi-conductor be the first one? since it is semi or partially a conductor. Then you are left with insulators to block them out. I hope I left a decent enough explanation. :)

insens350 [35]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

First Law of Thermodynamics - Sign Convention The first law of thermodynamics applies the conservation of energy principle to systems where heat transfer and doing work are the methods of transferring energy into and out of the system. The first law of thermodynamics states that the change in internal energy of a system equals the net heat transfer into the system minus the net work done by the system. In equation form, the first law of thermodynamics is AU = Q-W. Here AU is the change in internal energy U of the system. Q is the net heat transferred into the system that is, Q is the sum of all heat transfer into (positive) and out of (negative) the system. W is the net work done by the system—that is, W is the sum of all work done by (positive) and on (negative) the system. We use the following sign conventions: if Q is positive, then there is a net heat transfer into the system; if W is positive, then there is net work done by the system. So positive Q adds energy to the system and positive W takes energy from the system. Thus AU = Q-W. Note also that if more heat transfer into the system occurs than work done, the difference is stored as internal energy. The first law of thermodynamics AU = 9 - W Ur-U, Heat Work System AU--W system w Qin: talu Qout:

What is the net heat transfer? 20 Correct (100.0%) Submit What is the total work? Enter a number Submit (5 attempts remaining) What is the net change in internal energy of the system? Enter a number

What is the net change in internal energy of the system? Enter a number Submit (5 attempts remaining) (b) What is the change in internal energy of a system when a total of 140 J of heat transfer occurs out of (from) the system and 165 ) of work is done on the system? Enter a number Submit (5 attempts remaining) (c) An athlete doing push-ups performs 645 kJ of work and loses 440 kJ of heat. What is the change in the internal energy (in kJ) of the athlete? Enter a number Submit (5 attempts remaining) kJ (d) An athlete doing push-ups performs 690 kJ of work and loses 450 kJ of heat. Then he takes in 830 kJ of energy from eating food, What is the total change in the internal energy (in kJ) of the athlete? Enter a number kJ.

Solution :

a). Given :

$Q_1 = 42 \ J$ , $Q_2 = -22 \ J , \ W_1 = 6 \ J, \ W_2 = -6 \ J $

Net heat transfer

$Q= Q_1+Q_2$

   = 42 + (-22)

   = 20 J

Total work

$W= W_1+W_2$

   = 6 + (-6)

   = 0 J    

∵ ΔU = Q - W

       = 20 - 0

        = 20 J

This is the net change in the internal energy of the system.

b). ΔU = Q + W

           = (-140) + (-165)

           = -305 J

c). ΔU = Q + W

           = (-440) + (645)

           = 205 J

d). ΔU = Q + W

           = (-450) + (690)

           = 240 J

What is the difference between speed and velocity?
Wittaler [7]
It’s C) because we know that velocity is a vector quantity with direction and speed is only quantity. For example, velocity could be 5 m/s to the east but speed would only be 5 m/s

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

b.) Length

Explanation:

The length of the string can be changed by removing it from the slotted bracket and placing it back  in. You can change the mass by varying the number of washers on the mass hanger. The amplitude  can be changed by varying the starting angle of the pendulum (low, medium, and high angle). sorry if wrong
