Two metal bricks are held off the edge of a balcony from the same height above the ground. The bricks are the same size but one

is made of Titanium (density of 4.5 g/cm%) and one is made of Lead (density of 11.3 g/cm3) so the Lead is about twice as heavy as the Titanium. The time it takes the bricks to reach the ground will be:________.
a. less but not necessarily half as long for the heavier brick
b. about half as long for the lighter brick
c. less but not necessarily half as long for the lighter brick
d. about half as long for the heavier brick
e. about the same time for both bricks

Answer:

e.

Explanation:

  • Assuming that the air resistance is neglectable, both bricks are only accelerated by gravity, which produces a constant acceleration on both bricks, which is the same, according  Newton's 2nd Law, as we can see below:
  • F_{g}  = m*g = m*a  (1)
  • ⇒a = g = 9.8m/s² (pointing downward)
  • Since acceleration is constant, if both fall from the same height, we can apply the following kinematic equation:

       \Delta y = v_{o} * t - \frac{1}{2} *g*t^{2}  (2)

  • Since both bricks are held off the edge, the initial speed is zero, so (2) reduces to the following equation:

        h =\frac{1}{2} *g*t^{2}  (3)

  • Since h (the height of the balcony) is the same, we conclude that both bricks hit ground at exactly the same time.
  • If the air resistance is not negligible, due both bricks have zero initial speed, and have the same shape, they will be affected by the drag force in similar way, so they will reach the ground at approximately the same time.

A real heat engine operates between temperatures tc and th. during a certain time, an amount qc of heat is released to the cold
tino4ka555 [31]

q_{c} = Heat released to cold reservoir

q_{h} = Heat released to hot reservoir

W_{max} = maximum amount of work

t_{c} = temperature of cold reservoir

t_{h} = temperature of hot reservoir

we know that

\frac{q_{c}}{q_{h}}=\frac{t_{c}}{t_{h}}

q_{h} = (\frac{t_{h}}{t_{c}})q_{c}                                eq-1

maximum work is given as

W_{max} = q_{h} - q_{c}

using eq-1

W_{max} =  (\frac{t_{h}}{t_{c}})q_{c} - q_{c}

A weight of 30.0 N is suspended from a spring that has a force constant of 220 N/m. The system is undamped and is subjected to a
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

F_0 = 393 N

Explanation:

As we know that amplitude of forced oscillation is given as

A = \frac{F_0}{ m(\omega^2 - \omega_0^2)}

here we know that natural frequency of the oscillation is given as

\omega_0 = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

here mass of the object is given as

m = \frac{W}{g}

\omega_0 = \sqrt{\frac{220}{\frac{30}{9.81}}}

\omega_0 = 8.48 rad/s

angular frequency of applied force is given as

\omega = 2\pi f

\omega = 2\pi(10.5) = 65.97 rad/s

now we have

0.03 = \frac{F_0}{3.06(65.97^2 - 8.48^2)}

F_0 = 393 N

An ideal refrigerator does 130. 0 j of work to remove 780. 0 j of heat from its cold compartment during each cycle. what is the
zheka24 [161]

The refrigerator's coefficient of performance is 6.

The heat extracted from the cold reservoir Q cold (i.e., inside a refrigerator) divided by the work W required to remove the heat is known as the coefficient of performance, or COP, of a refrigerator (i.e., the work done by the compressor). The required inside temperature and the outside temperature have a significant impact on the COP.

As the inside temperature of the refrigerator decreases, its coefficient of performance decreases. The coefficient of performance (COP) of refrigeration is always more than 1.

The heat produced in the cold compartment, H = 780.0 J

Work done in ideal refrigerator, W = 130.0 J

Refrigerator's coefficient of performance = H/W

                                                                     = 780/130

                                                                     = 6

Therefore, the refrigerator's coefficient of performance is 6.

Energy conservation requires the exhaust heat to be = 780 + 130

                                                                                          = 910 J
