Kelli weighs 440 N, and she is sitting on a playground swing that hangs 0.41 m above the ground. Her mom pulls the swing back an

d releases it when the seat is 1.00 m above the ground. Assume that air resistance is negligible. If Kelli moves through the lowest point at 2.0 m/s, how much work was done on the swing by friction

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial height from the ground = .41 m

Final height = 1m

Height by which Kelli was raised ( h )= .59 m

When she passes through the lowest point , she loses P E

= mgh

= 440 x .59

= 259.6 J

kinetic energy possessed by her

= 1/2 mv²

= .5 x (440/9.8) x 2²

= 89.8 J

Difference of energy is lost due to work by  air friction

work done by  friction = 89.8 - 259.6

= - 169.8 J

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

7160.2812 s or 1.988 hours

Explanation:

m = Mass of person

R = Radius of Earth = 6.37\times 10^{6}\ m

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

\omega = Angular speed

Force at equator would be

F_e=m(g-\omega^2R)

Force at pole

F_p=mg

From the question

F_e=\dfrac{1}{2}F_p\\\Rightarrow m(g-\omega^2R)=\dfrac{1}{2}F_p\\\Rightarrow \omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{g}{2R}}

Time period is given by

T=\dfrac{2\pi}{\omega}\\\Rightarrow T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{2R}{g}}\\\Rightarrow T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 6.37\times 10^6}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow T=7160.2812\ s=1.988\ hours

The rotational period of the planet is 7160.2812 s or 1.988 hours

Even under the most ideal conditions, only about 8% of the internal energy of the steam produced in a steam engine can be conver
Anna71 [15]
As per the law of conservation of energy, no energy is created or destroyed. Therefore, we can conclude that the remaining 92% of energy released in electricity generation from steam power plants is converted to other, non-utilizable forms of energy. Such forms include sound energy or thermal energy between the moving parts of the plant.

Which process produces the energy radiated by the star when it becomes a main sequence star?
inysia [295]
The process that produces the energy radiated by stars is nuclear fusion in the core.
For a star on the main sequence, it's the fusion of hydrogen nuclei into helium.

I need help asap. #3, 12points
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

-10C= Solid

10C= Liquid

50C= Liquid

90C= Liquid

110C= Gas

120C= Gas

Explanation:

Below 0 degree C (Celsius), water is frozen means it is in the form of ice. After 0 degree, once we keep it in room temperature, the ice starts becoming liquid (water), and once we heat water, after 100 degree C (Celsius) water starts boiling and thus starts entering gaseous state.
