You lift a 10-N physics book up in the air a distance of 1.0 m, at a constant velocity

Physics

Anarel [89]3 years ago
5 0

The book is lifted upward, but gravity points down, so the work done by gravity must be negative (so you can eliminate options 1 and 3).

The force exerted on the book by gravity has magnitude

<em>F</em> = <em>mg</em> = (10 N) (9.80 m/s^2) = 9.8 N ≈ 10 N

You raise the book 1.0 m in the opposite direction, so the work done is

<em>W</em> = (10 N) (-1.0 m) = -10 J

Describe an imaginary process that satisfies the second law but violates the first law of thermodynamics.
N76 [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

First last of thermodynamics, just discusses the changes that a system is undergoing and the processes involved in it. It explains conservation of energy for a system undergoing changes or processes.

Second law of thermodynamics helps in defining the process and also the direction of the processes. It tells about the possibility of a process or the restriction of a process. It states that the entropy of a system always increases.

For this to occur the energy contained by a body has to diminish without converting to work or internal energy. So imagine a machine which works with less than efficiency, this means there are losses but they don’t show up anywhere. But the energy is obtained from a higher energy source to lower.

The easy way to do this is with an imaginary device that extracts zero-point energy to heat a quantity of gas. Energy is being created, so the first law is violated, and the entropy of the system is increasing as the gas heats up.

First law is violated since the energy conversion don't apply but the direction of work is applied so second law is satisfied.

. (a) How long can you play tennis on the 800 kJ (about 200 kcal) of energy in a candy bar? (b) Does this seem like a long time?
galina1969 [7]

(a). The power of the candy bar is,

P=440\text{ W}

The time taken to play on 800 kJ energy of the candy bar is,

t=\frac{E}{P}

where E is the energy.

Substituting the known values,

\begin{gathered} t=\frac{800\times10^3}{440} \\ t=1.818\times10^3\text{ s} \\ t=1818\text{ seconds} \end{gathered}

As 1 minute is equal to 60 seconds,

Thus,

\begin{gathered} t=1818\text{ seconds} \\ t=\frac{1818}{60} \\ t=30.3\text{ min} \end{gathered}

Thus, the time taken to play tennis on the 800 kJ energy is 30.3 minutes.

(b). By doing the exercise, the process of digestion of food inside our body increases. Thus, the exercise does not helps us to burn the calories. But it helps us to diggest the heavy meal like candy bar easily.

The time taken to digest the canndy bar or to utilise its energy is large because it takes a lot of time to burn small amount of food and make it digest quickly.

Explain how the removal of heat energy affects the speed of the particles in a substance
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

The removal of heat energy slows the speed of particles

Explanation:

When you add heat to a substance, the heat energy gets transferred to kinetic energy, and the molecules began to move a greater distance at a greater speed. When you remove heat, the opposite happens.
