Hi there!

We know that:

U = Potential Energy (J)
K = Kinetic Energy (J)
E = Total Energy (J)
At 10m, the total amount of energy is equivalent to:
U + K = 50 + 50 = 100 J
To find the highest point the object can travel, K = 0 J and U is at a maximum of 100 J, so:
100J = mgh
We know at 10m U = 50J, so we can solve for mass. Let g = 10 m/s².
50J = 10(10)m
m = 1/2 kg
Now, solve for height given that E = 100 J:
100J = 1/2(10)h
100J = 5h
<u>h = 20 meters</u>
Answer: the sample of solid has less energy than the sample of gas
Explanation:
APEX
Answer:
Explanation:
a ) Thermal efficiency = work output / heat input
= .38 MW / 1 MW = .38
OR 38%
Heat rejected at cold reservoir = heat input - work output
1 MW - .38 MW
= 0.62 MW.
b ) For reversible power output
efficiency = T₂ - T₁ / T₂ ; T₂ is temperature of hot reservoir and T₁ is temperature of cold reservoir.
= 1200 - 300 / 1200 = 900 / 1200
= .75
or 75%
rate at which heat is rejected
= 1 - .75 x 1
= .25 MW .
