Answer:

Explanation:

(a) Work done, W = 1.82 x 10^4 J

(b) internal energy, U = - 4.07 x 10^4 J ( as it decreases)

(c) According to the first law of thermodynamics  

Q = W + U

Q = 1.82 x 10^4 - 4.07 x 10^4

Q = - 2.25 x 10^4 J

It is night. Someone who is 4 feet tall is walking away from a street light at a rate of 8 feet per second. The street light is
KiRa [710]

Answer: 4 ft/s

Explanation:

Given

height of man=4 ft

speed of person v=8 ft/s

height if street light=12 ft

Let x be the distance between person and street light and y be the length of his shadow

From diagram

as the two triangle ADE and ABC are similar therefore we can say that

\frac{4}{12}=\frac{y}{x+y}

\frac{1}{3}=\frac{y}{x+y}

x+y=3y

x=2y

differentiate above Equation w.r.t time we get

\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=2\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}

\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}=\frac{8}{2}=4 ft/s

A stone is dropped from rest from the top of a cliff into a pond below. If its initial height is 10 m, what is its speed when it
Brut [27]

Answer:

14 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the stone is a free fall motion, so an accelerated motion with constant acceleration g = 9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground. So, we can use the following SUVAT equation:

v^2 -u^2 = 2gh

where

v is the final speed of the stone as it reaches the water

u = 0 is the initial speed

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration

h = 10 m is the distance covered by the stone

Solving for v, we find

v=\sqrt{u^2+2gh}=\sqrt{0+2(9.8 m/s^2)(10 m)}=14 m/s

You hold glider AA of mass 0.125 kgkg and glider BB of mass 0.375 kgkg at rest on an air track with a compressed spring of negli
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

The magnitude of the velocity of glider B is 0.2m/s and the direction is the negative direction  

Explanation:

Inelastic Collision

Given data

mass of glider A m1= 0.125kg

initial velocity u1=0

final velocity v1= 0.600 m/s

mass of glider B m2= 0.375kg

initial velocity u2=0

final velocity v2=?

We know that the expression for the conservation of momentum is given as

m1u1+m2u2=m1v1+m2v2

since u1=u2=u=0m/s

u(m1+m2)=m1v1+m2v2

substituting we have

0(0.125+0.0375)=0.125*0.6+0.375*v2

0=0.075+0.375v2

0.375v2=-0.075

v2=-0.075/0.375

v2=-0.2m/s

 The magnitude of the velocity of glider B is 0.2m/s and the direction is the negative direction
