Two horses on opposite sides of a narrow stream are pulling a barge up the stream. Each hors pulls with a force of 720N. The rop

es from the horses meet at a common point on the front of he barge. What is the resultant force exerted by the two horses if the angle between the rope is 60 degrees?

For the answer to the question above, each horse's force forms a right angle triangle with the barge and subtends an angle of 60/2 = 30°. The resultant in the direction of the barge's motion is:
Fx = Fcos(∅)
We can multiply this by 2 to find the resultant of both horses.
Fx = 2Fcos(∅)
Fx = 2 x 720cos(30)
Fx = 1247 N

In an engine, an almost ideal gas is compressed adiabatically to half its volume. In doing so, 2820 J of work is done on the gas
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

  1. Q=0
  2. U=2820
  3. Energy increases

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Work done W=2820

a)Generally the heat flow for an adiabatic process is 0 (zero)

Q= U + W =>0

Q=0

b)Generally Change in internal energy of gas is mathematically given by

Since W=-2820J

Therefore

U=2820

Giving

Q= 2820 -2820

Q=O

c)With increases in internal energy brings increase in temperature

Therefore

Energy increases
