An object is thrown horizontally from the open
window of a building. If the initial speed of the
object is 20 m/s and it hits the ground 2.0 s later,
from what height was it thrown? (Neglect air
resistance and assume the ground is level.)
Initial vertical velocity = 0
formula: s = ut + (1/2)*g*t^2
s = 0 + 1/2*9.8*2^2
s = 9.8*2 = 19.6 m

A 53 kg person is being dragged in their sleeping bag to the lake by a 401 N force at an angle of 30°
masha68 [24]

In the horizontal direction, the forces acting on the person are

• friction with magnitude <em>f</em>, opposing motion, and

• the horizontal component of the pulling force (itself with mag. <em>p</em> ) with mag. <em>p</em> cos(30º), in the direction of motion.

There is no friction in the vertical direction, so we omit any discussion of the vertical forces.

By Newton's second law, we then have

<em>p</em> cos(30º) - <em>f</em> = <em>m</em> <em>a</em> cos(30º)

where <em>m</em> is the person's mass, and <em>a</em> is their acceleration so that <em>a</em> cos(30º) is the magnitude of the horizontal component of acceleration. The person is pulled by a force of <em>p</em> = 401 N, so solve for <em>f</em> :

(401 N) cos(30º) - <em>f</em> = (53 kg) (0.59 m/s²) cos(30º)

<em>f</em> ≈ 320 N

A mixture of helium and argon gas is expanded from a volume of 29.0L to a volume of 82.0L, while the pressure is held constant a
finlep [7]

Answer:

322 kJ

Explanation:

The work is the energy that a force produces when realizes a displacement. So, for a gas, it occurs when it expands or when it compress.

When the gas expands it realizes work, so the work is positive, when it compress, it's suffering work, so the work is negative.

For a constant pressure, the work can be calcutated by:

W = pxΔV, where W is the work, p is the pressure, and ΔV is the volume variation. To find the work in Joules, the pressure must be in Pascal (1 atm = 101325 Pa), and the volume in m³ (1 L = 0.001 m³), so:

p = 60 atm = 6.08x10⁶ Pa

ΔV = 82.0 - 29.0 = 53 L = 0.053 m³

W = 6.08x10⁶x0.053

W = 322x10³ J

W = 322 kJ
