A 55-kg block, starting from rest, is pushed a distance of 5.0 m across a floor by a horizontal force Fp whose magnitude is 140

N. Fp is parallel to the displacement of the block. The final speed of the block is 2.35 m/s.

Answer:

The answer is "151.25 J and -547.64 J".

Explanation:

u = 0\\\\v = 2.35\  \frac{m}{sec}\\\\d = 5.0 \ m\\\\

Using formula:

v^2 = u^2 + 2 \times a \times d\\\\2.35^2 = 0^2 + 2 \times a \times 5\\\\a = \frac{2.35^2}{10} \\\\

   = 0.55 \ \frac{m}{sec^2}\\\\

F_{net} = m \times a\\\\F_{net} = 55 \times 0.55 = 30.25\ N\\\\

Calculating the Work by net force

W = F_{net}\times d\\\\W = 30.25 \times 5 = 151.25 \ J\\\\

The above work is converted into thermal energy.

Now,

F_{net} = F_p - F_f\\\\F_p = 140 \ N\\\\F_f = u_k\times m \times g = u_k \times 55 \times 9.81\\\\F_f = 539.55 \times u_k\\\\30.25 = 140 - u_k \times 55 \times 9.81\\\\u_k = \frac{(140 - 30.25)}{(55\times 9.81)}\\\\uk = 0.203 = \text{Coefficient of friction}\\\\W_f = -F_f \times d\\\\W_f = -0.203 \times 55 \times 9.81 \times 5\\\\Work\ done\  by\ friction = -547.64 \ J

Nady [450]

Answer:

(a) 1.939 m/h

(b) 0.926 m/h

(c) -0.315 m/h

(d) -1.21 m/h

Explanation:

Here, we have the water depth given by the function of time;

D(t) = 7 + 5·cos[0.503(t-6.75)]

Therefore, to find the velocity of the depth displacement with time, we differentiate the given expression with respect to time as follows;

D'(t) = \frac{d(7 + 5\cdot cos[0.503(t-6.75)])}{dt}

= 5×(-sin(0.503(t-6.75))×0.503

= -2.515×(-sin(0.503(t-6.75))

= -2.515×(-sin(0.503×t-3.395))

Therefore we have;

(a) at 5:00 AM = 5 -  0:00 = 5

D'(5) =  -2.515×(-sin(0.503×5-3.395)) = 1.939 m/h

(b) at 6:00 AM = 6 -  0:00 = 6

D'(5) =  -2.515×(-sin(0.503×6-3.395)) = 0.926 m/h

(c) at 7:00 AM = 7 -  0:00 = 7

D'(5) =  -2.515×(-sin(0.503×7-3.395)) = -0.315 m/h

(d) at Noon 12:00 PM = 12 -  0:00 = 12

D'(5) =  -2.515×(-sin(0.503×12-3.395)) = -1.21 m/h.

The bar graph shows energy data taken from a roller coaster at a theme park. Analyze the data and assess its validity. In 3–5 se
alexdok [17]

The data given in the bar graph is valid because it follows the law of conservation of energy, since the GPE at top of 2nd hill plus KE at top of 2nd hill equals KE at bottom of 1st hill.

<h3>What is law of conservation of energy?</h3>

The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another.

Based on the law of conservation of energy, kinetic energy of a roller coaster can be converted into potential energy of the roller coaster and vice versa.

ΔK.E = ΔP.E

where;

  • ΔK.E is change in kinetic energy
  • ΔP.E is change in potential energy

The kinetic energy of the coaster is greatest at the bottom of the hill, as the coaster moves upward, the kinetic energy decreases and will be converted into potential energy. The potential energy of the coaster increases as the coaster moves up the hill and will become maximum at the highest point of the hill.

From the given data;

GPE at top of 2nd hill + KE at top of 2nd hill = KE at bottom of 1st hill
