A horizontal force of magnitude 30.2 N pushes a block of mass 3.50 kg across a floor where the coefficient of kinetic friction i

s 0.646. (a) How much work is done by that applied force on the block-floor system when the block slides through a displacement of 2.96 m across the floor? (b) During that displacement, the thermal energy of the block increases by 35.2 J. What is the increase in thermal energy of the floor? (c) What is the increase in the kinetic energy of the block?

Answer:

A) 89.39 J

B) 30.39J

C) 23.8 J

Explanation:

We are given;

F = 30.2N

m = 3.5 kg

μ_k = 0.646

d = 2.96m

ΔEth (Block) = 35.2J

A) Work done by the applied force on the block-floor system is given as;

W = F•d

Thus, W = 30.2 x 2.96 = 89.39 J

B) Total thermal energy dissipated by the whole system which includes the floor and the block is given as;

ΔEth = μ_k•mgd

Thus, ΔEth = 0.646 x 3.5 x 9.8 x 2.96 = 65.59J

Now, we are given the thermal energy of the block which is ΔEth (Block) = 35.2J.

Thus,

ΔEth = ΔEth (Block) + ΔEth (floor)

Thus,

ΔEth (floor) = ΔEth - ΔEth (Block)

ΔEth (floor) = 65.59J - 35.2J = 30.39J

C) The total work done is considered as the sum of the thermal energy dissipated as heat and the kinetic energy of the block. Thus;

W = K + ΔEth

Therefore;

K = W - ΔEth

K = 89.39 - 65.59 = 23.8J

No, they usually will not. It also depends why you're going/why you went the first time.

If you get a ticket for speeding, it is based on your average speed or instantaneous speed? Explain
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

Instantaneous speed

Explanation:

Usually the speed measuring guns are used to measure the speed at a certain instant, so the measured speed is instantaneous.

The average speed is determined by the expression final distance minus initial distance divided by time

v_{aver} =\frac{x_{f}- x_{i}}{t}

The instantaneous speed is determined in the same way as the average, but with the exception that the travel displacements are shorter (very close one each other).

what voltage would produce a current of 100A through an aluminum wire that has a resistance of 3.44x10^-4 ohm?
Serga [27]
Voltage = Current x Resistance 
<span>Voltage(?) = 100 x 1.98x10^-4 ohms </span>

<span>Voltage = Current x Resistance </span>
<span>Voltage(?) = 250 x 2.09x10^-4 ohms </span>

<span>Voltage = Current x Resistance </span>
<span>Voltage(?) = 100 x 3.44x10^-4 ohms</span>

Calculate the amount of heat liberated (in kj) from 411 g of mercury when it cools from 88.0°c to 12.0°c.
Katen [24]
You should note that the melting point of mercury is -38.83°C, while the boiling point is at 356.7°C. Then, that means that there is no latent heat involved here. We only compute for the sensible heat.

ΔH = mCpΔT
The Cp of mercury is 0.14 J/g·°C
Thus,
ΔH = (411 g)(0.14 J/g·°C)(88 - 12°C)
<em>ΔH = 4,373.04 J</em>
