Which equation represents the total energy of a system?

Physics

C) Total Energy = Potential Energy + Kinetic Energy

Explanation:

The total energy of a system (also called mechanical energy) is given by:

E=PE+KE

where

PE is the potential energy

KE is the kinetic energy

The two types of energy have a different origin:

  • Potential energy (PE) is the energy possessed by an object due to its position. It is commonly in the form of gravitational potential energy, which is the energy due to the position of the object in the gravitational field, defined as:

PE=mgh

where m is the mass of the system, g the acceleration of gravity, h the heigth of the object relative to the ground

  • Kinetic energy (KE), which is the energy possessed by an object due to its motion. It is calculated as

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where m is the mass of the system and v is its speed.

7) Se calcula dividiendo distancia entre tiempo
sveta [45]

Answer:

A) Rapidez

Explanation:

Speed is a scalar quantity and it is found by dividing the distance traveled by the time taken.

 Speed  = \frac{distance}{time}  

Distance is the length of path covered whereas time is the duration of the travel.

Unlike velocity which is a vector, speed is a scalar quantity with only magnitude but no direction.

An object travels along a straight, horizontal surface with an initial speed of 2 ms. The position of the object as a function o
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

The options are not provided, so i will answer in a general way.

We know that:

The movement is along a straight horizontal surface, then we have one-dimensional motion.

The speed is 2m/s

We want a graph of position vs time.

Now, remember the relation:

Distance = Speed*Time

Then we can write the position as a function of time as:

P(t) = 2m/s*t + P0

Where t is our variable, that represents time in seconds, and P0 is the position at time t = 0seconds, we can assume that this is zero.

Then the equation is:

P(t) = 2m/s*t

And the graph is something like:

Solution A has a specific heat of 2.0 J/g◦C. Solution B has a specific heat of 3.8 J/g◦C. If equal masses of both solutions start
fgiga [73]

Answer: 2. Solution A attains a higher temperature.

Explanation: Specific heat simply means, that amount of heat which is when supplied to a unit mass of a substance will raise its temperature by 1°C.

In the given situation we have equal masses of two solutions A & B, out of which A has lower specific heat which means that a unit mass of solution A requires lesser energy to raise its temperature by 1°C than the solution B.

Since, the masses of both the solutions are same and equal heat is supplied to both, the proportional condition will follow.

<em>We have a formula for such condition,</em>

Q=m.c.\Delta T.....................................(1)

where:

  • \Delta T= temperature difference
  • Q= heat energy
  • m= mass of the body
  • c= specific heat of the body

<u>Proving mathematically:</u>

<em>According to the given conditions</em>

  • we have equal masses of two solutions A & B, i.e. m_A=m_B
  • equal heat is supplied to both the solutions, i.e. Q_A=Q_B
  • specific heat of solution A, c_{A}=2.0 J.g^{-1} .\degree C^{-1}
  • specific heat of solution B, c_{B}=3.8 J.g^{-1} .\degree C^{-1}
  • \Delta T_A & \Delta T_B are the change in temperatures of the respective solutions.

Now, putting the above values

Q_A=Q_B

m_A.c_A. \Delta T_A=m_B.c_B . \Delta T_B\\\\2.0\times \Delta T_A=3.8 \times \Delta T_B\\\\ \Delta T_A=\frac{3.8}{2.0}\times \Delta T_B\\\\\\\frac{\Delta T_{A}}{\Delta T_{B}} = \frac{3.8}{2.0}>1

Which proves that solution A attains a higher temperature than solution B.
