Answer: The formula used to solve the problems related to first law of thermodynamics is
Explanation:
First law of thermodynamics states that the total energy of the system remains conserved. Energy can neither be destroyed, nor be created but it can only be transformed into one form to another.
Its implication is any change in the internal energy will be either due to heat energy or work energy.
Mathematically,
where, Q = heat energy
W = work energy
= Change in internal energy
Sign convention for these energies:
For Q: Heat absorbed will be positive and heat released will be negative.
For W: Work done by the system is negative and work done on the system is positive.
For : When negative, internal energy is decreasing and when positive, internal energy is increasing.
Hence, the formula used to solve the problems related to first law of thermodynamics is
Answer:
a) Ep = 5886[J]; b) v = 14[m/s]; c) W = 5886[J]; d) F = 1763.4[N]
Explanation:
a)
The potential energy can be found using the following expression, we will take the ground level as the reference point where the potential energy is equal to zero.
b)
Since energy is conserved, that is, potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy, the moment the harpsichord touches water, all potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy.
c)
The work is equal to
W = 5886 [J]
d)
We need to use the following equation and find the deceleration of the diver at the moment when he stops his velocity is zero.
By performing a sum of forces equal to the product of mass by acceleration (newton's second law), we can find the force that acts to reduce the speed of the diver to zero.
m*g - F = m*a
F = m*a - m*g
F = (60*39.2) - (60*9.81)
F = 1763.4 [N]
