Which law states that absolute zero cannot be reached?

2 answers:

5 0

The third law of thermodynamics,the principle of temperature.

This law states that the entropy at 0 is always equel to 0.
This means that it is impossible to cool down a perfect 0 or absolute 0(-273.15 C)

A) 1.2-kg ball is hanging from the end of a rope. The rope hangs at an angle 20° from the vertical when a 19 m/s horizontal wind

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Part a)

$F_v = 4.28 N$

Part B)

$L = 1.02 m$

Part C)

$v = 1.25 m/s$

Explanation:

Part A)

As we know that ball is hanging from the top and its angle with the vertical is 20 degree

so we will have

$Tcos\theta = mg$

$T sin\theta = F_v$

$\frac{F_v}{mg} = tan\theta$

$F_v = mg tan\theta$

$F_v = 1.2\times 9.81 (tan20)$

$F_v = 4.28 N$

Part B)

Here we can use energy theorem to find the distance that it will move

$-\mu mg cos\theta L + mg sin\theta L = -\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$(-(0.37)m(9.81) cos15 + m(9.81) sin15)L = - \frac{1}{2}m(1.4)^2$

$(-3.5 + 2.54)L = - 0.98$

$L = 1.02 m$

Part C)

At terminal speed condition we know that

$F_v = mg$

$bv^2 = mg$

$2.5 v^2 = 3.9$

$v = 1.25 m/s$

A rollercoaster car has 2500 J of potential energy and 160 J of

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

E_{k2}=2660 [J] kinetic energy.

Explanation:

The energy in the initial state i.e. when the rollercoaster is at the top is equal to the energy in the final state i.e. when it is at the bottom of the hill.

These states can be represented by means of the second equation.

$E_{k1}+E_{p1}=E_{k2}\\160 + 2500 = E_{k2}\\E_{k2}=2660 [J]$

Since the rollercoaster is located in the bottom of the hill where the potential energy level is zero, therefore there is only kinetic energy in the second state.

A pickup truck is being driven down the highway carrying eight 100 gallon fish tank full of water. A hole is punctured in each t

irakobra [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

The velocity of the vehicle would increase because the the tanks (when filled with water) must have exerted a force which would reduce the velocity of the vehicle at a certain pressure on the gas pedal. Note that force equals mass multiplied by acceleration; as the mass decreases, so the force decreases. Thus, when the mass exerted by this tanks (on the vehicle) decrease as a result of the hole punctured in them, the force exerted by the tanks would also decrease causing an increase in velocity of the pick up truck when the same pressure is applied on the gas pedal throughout (before and after the puncture).

The conservation law that applied here is the law of conservation of energy which states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another. This is because the energy the vehicle used in carrying the load (the tanks) was transformed to the energy that resulted in increasing it's velocity (no new energy was formed as the pressure on the gas pedal remained the same).

How much work is required to lift a 2 kilogram mass to a height of 10 meters

Semmy [17]

Given mass = 2kg, height = 10m,g = 9.8.

We know that Work done W = FD

= > W = (mg)(D)

= > W = (2 * 9.8)(10)

= > W = 196 Joules.

Hope this helps!
