A boy on a 1.9 kg skateboard initially at rest tosses a(n) 7.8 kg jug of water in the forward direction. if the jug has a speed

of 3.2 m/s relative to the ground and the boy and skateboard move in the opposite direction at 0.65 m/s, find the boy's mass. answer in units of kg.

For this case we first think that the skateboard and the child are one body.
 We have then:
 1 = jug
 2 = skateboard + boy
 By conservation of the linear amount of movement:
 M1V1i + M2V2i = M1V1f + M2V2f
 Initial rest:
 v1i = v2i = 0
 0 = M1V1f + M2V2f
 Substituting values
 0 = (7.8) (3.2) + (M2) (- 0.65)
 0 = 24.96 + M2 (-0.65)
 -24.96 = (-0.65) M2
 M2 = (-24.96) / (- 0.65) = 38.4 kg
 Then, the child's mass is:
 M2 = Mskateboard + Mb
 Clearing:
 Mb = M2-Mskateboard
 Mb = 38.4 - 1.9
 Mb = 36.5 Kg
 answer:
 the boy's mass is 36.5 Kg

1. All the relevant resistors are in series, so the total (or equivalent) resistance is the sum of the resistances of the resistors: 20 Ω + 80 Ω + 50 Ω = 150 Ω [choice A].

2. The ammeter will read the current flowing through this circuit. We can find the ammeter reading using Ohm's law in terms of the electromotive force provided by the battery: I = ℰ/R = (30 V)(150 Ω) = 0.20 A [choice C].

3. The voltmeter will measure the potential drop across the 50 Ω resistor, i.e., the voltage at that resistor. We know from question 2 that the current flowing through the resistor is 0.20 A. So, from Ohm's law, V = IR = (0.20 A)(50 Ω) = 10. V, which will be the voltmeter reading [choice F].

4. Trick question? If the circuit becomes open, then no current will flow. Moreover, even if the voltmeter were kept as element of the circuit, voltmeters generally have a very high resistance (an ideal voltmeter has infinite resistance), so the current moving through the circuit will be negligible if not nil. In any case, the ammeter reading would be 0 A [choice B].

A gas at a pressure of 2.10 atm undergoes a quasi static isobaric expansion from 3.70 to 5.40 L. How much work is done by the ga
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

Total work done in expansion will be 3.60\times 10^5J

Explanation:

We have given pressure P = 2.10 atm

We know that 1 atm =1.01\times 10^5Pa

So 2.10 atm =2.10\times 1.01\times 10^5=2.121\times 10^5Pa

Volume is increases from 3370 liter to 5.40 liter

So initial volume V_1=3.70liter

And final volume V_2=5.40liter

So change in volume dV=5.40-3.70=1.70liter

For isobaric process work done is equal to W=PdV=2.121\times 10^5\times 1.70=3.60\times 10^5J

So total work done in expansion will be 3.60\times 10^5J
