Answer:
First law: kinetic energy is used to turn an electric generator
Second law: some thermal energy is lost to the environment as it travels through the system
Explanation:
The first law of thermodynamics is known as the law of conservation of energy. It states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can only be transferred or changed from one form to another. When thermal energy is used to generate electricity, the kinetic energy of the steam is used to turn the electric generator (thereby producing electrical energy).
The second law of thermodynamics states that energy transfer or transformation leads to an increase in entropy resulting in the loss of energy. This law also states that as energy is transferred or transformed, some is lost in a form that is unusable. When thermal energy is used to generate electricity, some of the thermal energy is lost to the environment as it travels through the system.
<span>The property that matter has that energy does not is that matter has size, shape and occupies space. Matter also has inertia. Energy does not have any of these.</span>
The answer would be half court I think
There are two forces acting on the teacher:
Force due to weight/gravity (Fg)
Force due to drag (Fd), which is a resistance opposite to the direction of motion. Think of an airplane flying through the sky: there will be air that tries to oppose the plane's direction of motion AKA air-resistance.
The force of gravity is always downward (the direction of gravity).
Like we said before, the force of drag is always opposite to the direction of motion. Since the teacher is falling down, the force of drag is exerted upward.
Look at the attached diagram. The teacher is the circle in the middle. The two arrows indicate the two forces and their directions.
Now let's look at numbers:
Fg = mg = 65kg * 9.81 m/s^2 = ??N
Fd = 320N
To find the "Net Force" we must add up all of the forces exerted on the teacher, BUT we have to take into account the direction of forces.
Let's define downward as our "positive" direction. Since downward is positive, that means our force due to gravity is positive = +Fg
But since our force due to drag is UPWARD that means our force is NEGATIVE = -Fd.
So our total net force is
Answer:
20 m
Explanation:
We'll begin by calculating the kinetic energy of the mass. This can be obtained as follow:
Mass (m) = 10 kg
Velocity (v) = 20 m/s
Kinetic energy (KE) =?
KE = ½mv²
KE = ½ × 10 × 20²
KE = 5 × 400
KE = 2000 J
Finally, we shall the height to which the mass must be located in order to have potential energy that is the same as the kinetic energy. This can be obtained as follow:
Mass (m) = 10 kg
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²
Potential energy (PE) = Kinetic energy (KE) = 2000 J
Height (h) =..?
PE = mgh
2000 = 10 × 10 × h
2000 = 100 × h
Divide both side by 100
h = 2000 / 100
h = 20 m
Thus, the object must be located at a height of 20 m in order to have potential energy that is the same as the kinetic energy.
