Answer:

The correct answer is <u>option (A) that is KEA > KEB .</u>

Explanation:

Let us calculate -

If the object is straighten up and inclined plane , the work done is

W=F_d- F_f_r_id-F_gh

W=F_d-\mu_kmgdcos\theta-mgdsin\theta

The change in kinetic energy is ,

   \Delta K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2-\frac{1}{2}m\nu_0^2

At the top of the inclined plane , the velocity is zero

So,

\Delta K=\frac{1}{2} m(0)^2-\frac{1}{2}m\nu_0^2

\Delta KE=-\frac{1}{2}m\nu_0^2

From the work energy theorem , we have W=-\Delta K in case of friction , so

\frac{1}{2}m\nu_0^2=Fd-\mu_kmgdcos\theta-mgdsin\theta

KE=Fd-\mu_kmgdcos\theta-mgdsin\theta

For object A-

KE_A=Fd-\mu_kmgdcos\theta-mgdsin\theta

For object B

KE_B= Fd -2\mu_kMgdcos\theta-2Mgdsin\theta

KE_B= Fd -2(\mu_kMgdcos\theta-Mgdsin\theta)

Thus , larger mass is going to mean less total work and a lower kinetic energy .

From the above results , we get

KE_A >KE_B

<u>Therefore , option A is correct .</u>

Answer:

1.84 kJ  (kilojoules)

Explanation:

A specific heat of 0.46 J/g Cº means that it takes 0.46 Joules of energy to raise the temperature of 1 gram of iron by 1 Cº.

If we want to heat 50 g of iron from 20° C to 100° C, we can make the following calculation:

Heat = (specific heat)*(mass)*(temp change)

Heat = (0.46 J/g Cº)*(50g)*(100° C -  20° C)

[Note how the units cancel to yield just Joules]

Heat = 1840 Joules, or 1.84 kJ

[Note that the number is positive:  Energy is added to the system.  If we used cold iron to cool 50g of 100° C water, the temperature change would be (Final - Initial) or (20° C - 100° C).  The number is -1.84 kJ:  the negative means heat was removed from the system (the iron).

Juan measured the temperature of salt water. He then added 273 to the measured value. Which conversion is Juan most likely doing
Semmy [17]
If Juan used a Celsius thermometer, it would tell him the Celsius temperature.

If he added 273 to that number, he'd have the "absolute" or Kelvin temperature.

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

\omege_A=\omega_M

v_M=1.6v_A

Explanation:

A denotes Alex

M denotes Mary

r = Distance from center

Mary and Alex will have the equal displacements in equal interval of time as they are in uniform circular motion. So,

\omega_A=\omega_M

Tangential speed speed is given by

\dfrac{v_M}{v_A}=\dfrac{r_M\omega_M}{r_A\omega_A}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{v_M}{v_A}=\dfrac{r_M}{r_A}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{v_M}{v_A}=\dfrac{8}{5}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{v_M}{v_A}=1.6\\\Rightarrow v_M=1.6v_A

The tangential speed of Mary is v_M=1.6v_A
