Answer:

0.225 KJ kinetic energy is used for a person of mass 50 Kg running at speed of 3 m/s.

Explanation:

Given:

mass = 50 kg

velocity = v = 3 m/s

To Find :

Kinetic energy = ?

Solution:

Kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion.

The formula for kinetic energy is given as

$\textrm{kinetic energy} = \frac{1}{2}\times mass\times velocity^{2}\\= \frac{1}{2}\times m\times v^{2}\\= \frac{1}{2}\times 50\times 3^{2}\\= 25\times 9\\= 225\ Joules.$

But we required kinetic energy in KiloJoules i.e KJ

1 K = 1000 = $10^{3}$

$\textrm{kinetic energy} = 225\ J\\= 0.225\times 1000\\= 0.225 \times 10^{3}\\= 0.225\ KJ$

A Carnot heat engine has an efficiency of 0.400. If it operates between a deep lake with a constant temperature of 298.0k and a

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

496.7 K

Explanation:

The efficiency of a Carnot engine is given by the equation:

$\eta = 1 - \frac{T_H}{T_L}$

where:

$T_H$ is the temperature of the hot reservoir

$T_C$ is the temperature of the cold reservoir

For the engine in the problem, we know that

$\eta = 0.400$ is the efficiency

$T_C = 298.0 K$ is the temperature of the cold reservoir

Solving for $T_H$ , we find:

$\frac{T_C}{T_H}=1-\eta\\T_H = \frac{T_C}{1-\eta} =\frac{298.0}{1-0.400}=496.7 K$

Answer:

The transverse component of acceleration is 26.32 $m/s^2$ where as radial the component of acceleration is 8.77 $m/s^2$

Explanation:

As per the given data

u=π/4 rad

ω=u'=2 rad/s

α=u''=4 rad/s

$r=e^u$

So the transverse component of acceleration are given as

$a_{\theta}=(ru''+2r'u')\\$

Here

$r=e^u\\r=e^{\pi/4}\\r=2.1932 m$

$r'=e^u.u'\\r'=2.1932 \times 2\\r'=4.3864 m$

$a_{\theta}=(ru''+2r'u')\\a_{\theta}=(2.1932\times 4+2\times 4.3864 \times 2)\\a_{\theta}=26.32 m/s\\$

The transverse component of acceleration is 26.32 $m/s^2$

The radial component is given as

$a_r=r''-r\theta'^2$

Here

$r''=e^u.u'^2+e^u u''\\r''=2.1932 \times (2)^2+2.1932\times 4\\r''=17.5456 m$

$a_r=r''-ru'^2\\a_r=17.5456-2.1932\times (2)^2\\a_r=8.7728 m/s^2$

The radial component of acceleration is 8.77 $m/s^2$

Consider two ideal gases, A & B, at the same temperature. The rms speed of the molecules of gas A is twice that of gas B. Ho

uysha [10]

Answer:

option (d)

Explanation:

The relation between the rms velocity and the molecular mass is given by

v proportional to \frac{1}{\sqrt{M}} keeping the temperature constant

So for two gases

$\frac{v_{A}}{v_{B}}=\sqrt{\frac{M_{B}}{M_{A}}}$

$\frac{2v_{B}}{v_{B}}=\sqrt{\frac{M_{B}}{M_{A}}}$

${\frac{M_{B}}{M_{A}}} = 4$

${\frac{M_{B}}{4}} = M_{A}$
