Answer: 294J

Explanation:

U_g=mg(y_f-y_i)

U_g=(15)(9.8)(2-0)=294J

Answer:

294.3 J

Explanation:

U = mgh

U = energy

m = mass

g = gravity

h = height

so

U = 15kg * 9.81 m/s^2 * 2m

294.3 J (joules) [kg *m^2/s^2]

What happens to the object if the line crosses the x-axis from the positive portion of a velocity versus time diagram?
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

A velocity time graph shows the change of velocity of an object with respect ot time. If the slope of the graph is increasing in the postive region, it means that the velocity is changing, if the slope is decreasing, it means the the velocity is decreasing, but the object is moving in the same direction (positve direction).

If this slope intersects the graph at x-axis, it means that the body has 0 velocity and has become still. After that, if the line enters in the negative region, it means that its velocity is started to increases again, but the body is movinging in the opposite direction (negative direction)

Secondary evidence is the basis for drawing scientific conclusions is this true ir false
Leto [7]
The statement: "secondary evidence is the basis for drawing scientific conclusions" is definitely false. Secondary evidence is the body of information obtained to prove the existence of unknown or missing primary evidence. In drawing scientific conclusions, primary evidence is needed.

During each cycle, a refrigerator ejects 610 kJ of energy to a high-temperature reservoir, and takes in 505 kJ of energy from a
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer

A. the work done on the refrigerant in each cycle is 105kJ

B the coefficient of performance of the refrigerator is 4.8

Explanation

Given data

Work done at high temperature T2 Qh=610kJ

Work done at low temperature T1 Ql=505kJ

We know that the net work done by the refrigerator is expressed as

Wnet= Qh-Ql

=610-505

=105kJ

Also we know that the coefficient of performance is expressed as

COP= Ql/Wnet

COP= 505/105

= 4.8

For exercise, an athlete lifts a barbell that weighs 400 N from the ground to a height of 2.0 m in a time of 1.6 s. Assume the e
Sati [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

(ΔK + ΔUg + ΔUs + ΔEch + ΔEth = W)

ΔK is increase in kinetic energy . As the athelete is lifting the barbell at constant speed change in kinetic energy is zero .

ΔK = 0

ΔUg  is change in potential energy . It will be positive as weight is being lifted so its potential energy is increasing .

ΔUg = positive

ΔUs is change in the potential energy of sportsperson . It is zero since there is no change in the height of athlete .

ΔUs = 0

ΔEth is change in the energy of earth . Here earth is doing negative work . It is so because it is exerting force downwards and displacement is upwards . Hence it is doing negative work . Hence

ΔEth = negative .

b )

work done by athlete

= 400 x 2 = 800 J

energy output = 800 J

c )

It is 25% of metabolic energy output of his body

so metalic energy output of body

= 4x 800 J .

3200 J

power = energy output / time

= 3200 / 1.6

= 2000 W .

d )

1 ) Since he is doing same amount of work , his metabolic energy output is same as that in earlier case .

2 ) Since he is doing the same exercise in less time so his power is increased . Hence in the second day his power is more .

Answer: The correct statements are:

  • The atoms are very attracted to one another.
  • The atoms are held tightly together.

Explanation:

Solid state: In this state, the molecules are closely packed and cannot move freely from one place to another that means no space between them and the intermolecular force of attraction between the molecules are strong.

In solid substance, the particles are very close to each other due to this the intermolecular forces of attraction are strongest.

The key point about solid are:

  • The atoms are very attracted to one another.
  • The atoms are not moving freely.
  • It will not spread out evenly to fill any container.
  • The atoms are held tightly together.
  • The forces of attraction are strong to bring molecules together.
  • The atoms are close and in fixed positions.
