A fly travels along the x-axis. His starting point is x = 16 m and his ending point 15x = - 25 m. His flight lasts 4.0 seconds H
1 answer:
Explanation:
Starting position at x = 16m
Ending position at x = -25m
Time of flight = 4s
Unknown:
Distance flown = ?
Displacement = ?
Speed = ?
Velocity = ?
Solution:
To find the distance flown, we should understand that the body is moving on the x - plane;
So distance = 16 + 25 = 41m
Displacement is 41m to the left or -x axis
Speed is the distance divided by the time taken;
Speed = =
= 10.25m/s
Velocity is 10.25m/s along -x axis

Answer:
24) W = 75 [J]; 25) W = 1794[J]; 26) n = 8.8 (times) or 9 (times)
Explanation:
24) This problem can be solved by means of the following equation.
where:
DU = internal energy difference [J]
Q = Heat transfer [J]
W = work [J]
Since there are no temperature changes the internal energy change is equal to zero
DU = 0
therefore:
The work is equal to the heat transfered, W = 75 [J].
25) The heat transfer can be calculated by means of the following equation.
Q = 0.4*897*5 = 1794[J]
Work is equal to heat transfer, W = 1794[J]
26) Each time the bag falls the potential energy is transformed into heat energy, which is released into the environment. In this way the potential energy is equal to the developed heat.
where:
m = mass = 0.5[kg]
g = gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]
h = 1.5 [m]
The heat developed can be calculated by means of the following equation.
The number of times will be calculated as follows
n = 65/7.36
n = 8.8 (times) or 9 (times)
