$\frac{415}{f} = \frac{346- \frac{745}{36} }{346+0}$
f=441.40

Why do you not come to thermal equilibrium on a cold day

Tju [1.3M]

Two physical systems are in thermal equilibrium if no heat flows between them when they are connected by a path permeable to heat. Thermal equilibrium obeys the zeroth law of thermodynamics. A system is said to be in thermal equilibrium with itself if the temperature within the system is spatially and temporally uniform.

Systems in thermodynamic equilibrium are always in thermal equilibrium, but the converse is not always true. If the connection between the systems allows transfer of energy as heat but does not allow transfer of matter or transfer of energy as work, the two systems may reach thermal equilibrium without reaching thermodynamic equilibrium.

At the end of a race a runner decelerates from a velocity of 8.90 m/s at a rate of 1.70 m/s2. (a) How far in meters does she tra

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

x=22.33m

Explanation:

Kinematics equation for constant deceleration:

$x =v_{o}*t - 1/2*at^{2}=8.9*6.3-1/2*1.70*6.3^{2}=22.33m$

Your Lead Teaching Assistant is initially seated on the top of a hemispherical ice mound of radius R = 30 m. Approximate the ice

saw5 [17]

Answer:

<em>Height = 5.65 km</em>

Explanation:

$3\pi r^2$ is the circumference or we can say measures the boundary of hemisphere of friction-less ice that he is sitting on.

So, the height will be = 2 x 3.14 x (30)^2 = 5654.7 m = 5.65 km

A mass is oscillating with amplitude A at the end of a spring.

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

A) $x=\pm \frac{A}{2\sqrt{2}}$

The total energy of the system is equal to the maximum elastic potential energy, that is achieved when the displacement is equal to the amplitude (x=A):

$E=\frac{1}{2}kA^2$ (1)

where k is the spring constant.

The total energy, which is conserved, at any other point of the motion is the sum of elastic potential energy and kinetic energy:

$E=U+K=\frac{1}{2}kx^2+\frac{1}{2}mv^2$ (2)

where x is the displacement, m the mass, and v the speed.

We want to know the displacement x at which the elastic potential energy is 1/3 of the kinetic energy:

$U=\frac{1}{3}K$

Using (2) we can rewrite this as

$U=\frac{1}{3}(E-U)=\frac{1}{3}E-\frac{1}{3}U\\U=\frac{E}{4}$

And using (1), we find

$U=\frac{E}{4}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}kA^2}{4}=\frac{1}{8}kA^2$

Substituting $U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2$ into the last equation, we find the value of x:

$\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{8}kA^2\\x=\pm \frac{A}{2\sqrt{2}}$

B) $x=\pm \frac{3}{\sqrt{10}}A$

In this case, the kinetic energy is 1/10 of the total energy:

$K=\frac{1}{10}E$

Since we have

$K=E-U$

we can write

$E-U=\frac{1}{10}E\\U=\frac{9}{10}E$

And so we find:

$\frac{1}{2}kx^2 = \frac{9}{10}(\frac{1}{2}kA^2)=\frac{9}{20}kA^2\\x^2 = \frac{9}{10}A^2\\x=\pm \frac{3}{\sqrt{10}}A$
