Imagine a system where a block rests on an inclined plane. The block is then given an initial push so that it starts sliding dow

n along the plane. After traveling some distance down the inclined plane it comes to rest due to frictional forces. In the simplest case, there are three forces acting upon the motion of the block—the initial push, gravity, and friction. Which of these statements about the work done by these three forces is true?
-The work done by gravity is equal to the sum of the work done by friction and the initial push.

-All three forces contribute an equal amount of work.

-The work done by friction is equal to the sum of the work done by gravity and the initial push.

-The work done by the initial push is equal to the sum of the work done by friction and gravity.

Answer:

the correct affirmation is the 3

Explanation:

Let's analyze the problem with Newton's second law before looking at the claims.

X axis parallel to the plane, positive down

      F -fr + Wₓ = ma

Y Axis perpendicular to the plane

      N -Wy = 0

With trigonometry

     Wₓ = W sin θ

     Wy = w cos θ

Let's multiply by the displacement along the plane, to relate to the work, which has as expression W = F d

     F d -fr d + Wx d = ma d

Push                  W₁ = Fd

frictional force  W₂ = -fr d

gravity               W₃ = Wx d

    W₁ + W₃ -W₂ = m a d

Analysis affirmations:

R1) false. The work of gravity is the subtraction    

R2) false. Each force contributes according to its magnitude

R3) true. In the equation we see that, if the acceleration is zero, W2 = W1 + W3

R4) False. It equals the difference

the correct affirmation is the 3

Is a magnetic reversal a threat to life on Earth ? Whay do you say?
KATRIN_1 [288]
I would say yes, a magnetic reversal a threat to life on Earth. Base on articles, it is the end of the world if that happens. <span>Some people believe global cataclysm will occur when Earth's magnetic poles reverse. When north goes south, they say, the continents will lurch in one direction or the other, triggering massive earthquakes, rapid climate change and species extinctions.</span>

A small, closed chamber of gas is heated. When the gas in the chamber expands,it does 5 J of work on a piston. The gas has an in
Anestetic [448]

Given:

Work done, W = 5 J

Initial energy = 8J

Final energy = 30J

Let's determine if the work done have a positive or nrgative value.

Appy the equation for the first lae of thermodynamics:

\Delta U=Q-W

Where:

U is the change in internal energy

Q is the added heat

W is the work done

To find the work done here, we have:

Rewrite the formula for W

W=Q-\Delta U

Where:

ΔU = 30J - 8J = 22J

Q = 5J

Thus, we have:

\begin{gathered} W=5J-22J \\  \\ W=-17J \end{gathered}

Therefore, the work done here is -17J.

This means the work done in this scenario has a negative value.

ANSWER:

The work done in this scenario has a negative value
