Complete question:

A college dormitory room measures 14 ft wide by 13 ft long by 6 ft high. Weight density of air is 0.07 lbs/ft3. What is the weight of air in it under normal conditions?

Answer:

the weight of the air is 76.44 lbs

Explanation:

Given;

dimension of the dormitory, = 14 ft by 13 ft by 6 ft

density of the air, = 0.07 lbs/ft³

The volume of the air in the dormitory room = 14 ft x 13 ft x 6 ft

= 1092 ft³

The weight of the air = density x volume

= 0.07 lbs/ft³ x 1092 ft³

= 76.44 lbs

Therefore, the weight of the air is 76.44 lbs

A solid sphere of weight 42.0 N rolls up an incline at an angle of 36.0°. At the bottom of the incline the center of mass of the

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Part a)

$KE = 77.95 J$

Part b)

$L = 3.16 m$

Part c)

distance L is independent of the mass of the sphere

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that rotational kinetic energy of the sphere is given as

$KE = \frac{1}{2}I\omega_2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

so we will have

$KE = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{2}{5}mR^2)(\frac{v}{R})^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

so we will have

$KE = \frac{1}{5} mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$KE = \frac{7}{10} mv^2$

$KE = \frac{7}{10}(\frac{42}{9.81})(5.10^2)$

$KE = 77.95 J$

Part b)

By mechanical energy conservation law we know that

Work done against gravity = initial kinetic energy of the sphere

So we will have

$mgLsin\theta = KE$

$\frac{42}{9.81}(9.81)L sin36 = 77.95$

$L = 3.16 m$

Part c)

by equation of energy conservation we know that

$\frac{7}{10}mv^2 = mgL sin\theta$

so here we can see that distance L is independent of the mass of the sphere

g100num [7]

Answer:

54 km/hr

Explanation:

m/s to km/hr => 18/5

15 m/s to km/hr => 15 x 18/5 =>3 x 18 => 54km/hr
