<h2>The elastic potential energy gained by the rubber band is the work done by you in elongating it. Positive work is done on the rubber band, so it gains energy. While work is done by you (i.e. negative work is done on you), so you lose some energy. The total energy is conserved. </h2><h2> </h2><h2>In simple words, the energy gained by the rubber band is the energy lost by you while elongating it.</h2>

Which transition represents a time when water molecules are moving closer together?
oee [108]
The best transition between the four options presented to represent a time when water molecules are moving closer together would be A. Frost forms on a window pane.

The closest distance that the water molecules can do is when the water is in the state of being solid. It is known that the solid state of matter has the closest distance from molecule to molecule that when a molecule tries to move, the others move as well creating a vibration and thus producing heat in the process. When they are in a liquid state, they are quite far from each other. In a gas state, they really are far from each. This explains the difference in their characteristics.

force is mass * acceleration  

so 2kg * 2m/s^2 = 4 N

In severe head-on automobile accidents, a deceleration of 60 g’s or more (1 g 5 32.2 ft/s2) often results in a fatality. What fo
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

The resulting force on the child is 3000 lbf

Explanation:

To find the force that acts on a child of 50 lb with a deceleration of 60 g's, we can use the formula:

Force = mass * acceleration

To find the force in lbf, we need to use the mass in lb and the acceleration in g (standard unit of gravity).

So we have that:

Force = 50 * 60

Force = 3000 lbf

So the resulting force on the child is 3000 lbf.

A machine exerts a 100 N force to the right over a 5.00 meter length in 4.00 seconds. Calculate the power output of this machine
bixtya [17]

125 W is the power output of this machine.

Answer:

Explanation:

Power is defined as the amount of work done on the system to move that system from its original state within the given time interval. So it can be determined by the ratio of work done with time interval. As work done is the measure of force required to move a system to a certain distance. Work done is calculated as product of force with displacement.

So in the present case, the force is given as 100 N, the displacement is given as 5 m and the time is given as 4 s, then power is

Power = \frac{Work done}{Time}

As Work done = Force acting on the machine × Displacement

So Power = \frac{(Force * Displacement)}{Time}

Power = \frac{(100*5)}{4}=125 W

So, 125 W is the power output of this machine.

A vertical piston-cylinder device contains water and is being heated on top of a range. During the process, 63 Btu of heat is tr
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

The water would have a change in the energy of 50 BTU

Explanation:

  1. Under the assumption that the piston-cylinder system is a closed system, then the conservation law of the system would be: E_{in}-E_{out}=E_{change}, where E_{in} is all the energy that goes into the system, E_{out} is all the energy that leaves the system and, E_{change} is the change of the energy of the system.
  2. For this case the energy that is feeded to the system is heat: 63 BTU.
  3. There is two ways that energy is leaving this system: 8 BTU of heat as losses through the side walls and, 5 BTU of work done by the vapor on the piston.
  4. Then the change of energy of the system is: E_{change}=E_{in}-E_{out}=63 BTU-(8BTU+5BTU)=50BTU.
