I was reading an old thermodynamics textbook and came across this equation describing change in internal energy. What does the (

dU/dT)V and (dU/dV)T mean? I think it’s partial derivatives, but I’ve never seen a derivative sub (something). Please help

Answer:

Indication that the input of a multivariable function can change in many directions. Neither one of these derivatives tells the full story of how our function f ( x , y ) f(x, y) f(x,y)f, left parenthesis, x, comma, y, right parenthesis changes when its input changes slightly, so we call them partial derivatives.

Which airplane has more potential energy, a boeing 787 dreamliner having a mass of 2,450kg at 11,500 m above Earth, or a boeing
Readme [11.4K]

Explanation:

For 787 dreamliner airplane,

Mass, m_1=2450\ kg

Height, h_1=11500\ m

Potential energy of 787 dreamliner airplane is given by :

E_1=m_1gh_1\\\\E_1=2450\times 9.8\times 11500\\\\E_1=2.76\times 10^8\ J

For a boeing 747,

Mass, m_2=3150\ kg

Height, h_2=9000 \ m

:

Potential energy of a boeing 747 airplane is given by

E_2=m_2gh_2\\\\E_2=3150\times 9.8\times 9000\\\\E_2=2.77\times 10^8\ J

So, the potential energy of a boeing 747 airplane is more than the 787 dreamliner airplane.

Question 6 (10 points)
horsena [70]

Answer:

a= g = - 9.81 m/s2.

The following equations will be helpful:

a = (vf - vo)/t d = vot + 1/2 at2 vf2 = vo2 + 2ad

When you substitute the specific acceleration due to gravity (g), the equations are as follows:

g = (vf - vo)/t d = vot + 1/2 gt2 vf2 = vo2 + 2gd

If the object is dropped from rest, the initial velocity ("vi") is zero. This further simplifies the equations to these:

g = vf /t d = 1/2 gt2 vf2 = 2gd

The sign convention that we will use for direction is this: "down" is the negative direction. If you are given a velocity such as -5.0 m/s, we will assume that the direction of the velocity vector is down. Also if you are told that an object falls with a velocity of 5.0 m/s, you would substitute -5.0 m/s in your equations. The sign convention would also apply to the acceleration due to gravity as shown above. The direction of the acceleration vector is down (-9.81 m/s2) because the gravitational force causing the acceleration is directed downward.

hope this info helps you out!

Answer:

The person has no displacement

Explanation:

The given parameters are

The location of the person = The equator

The distance covered in one revolution = Total distance around the body

The total distance around the Earth = The circumference of the Earth = 40.075 kilometres

The total distance moved by the person standing at the equator during the Earths complete revolution = 40,075 kilometres

The initial location of the person in relation to a fixed point in space outside Earth at the start of the revolution = x km

The final location of the person in relation to the fixed point in space outside Earth at the completion of the revolution = x km

The displacement = Change in position = Final location - Initial location  

∴ The displacement = x km - x km = 0 km.
