Equilibrium of forces

Physics
2 answers:
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

<em><u>If the size and direction of the forces acting on an object are exactly balanced, then there is no net force acting on the object and the object is said to be in equilibrium. Because the net force is equal to zero, the forces in Example 1 are acting in equilibrium.</u></em>

Equilibrium of forces means that the net force is 0. It can either be when there is no force acting on the object or when the force acting on the object are balanced.

When a hot and cold object are placed in contact, the hot one loses energy. Does this violate energy conservation? Why or why no
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

This does not violate the conservation of energy.

Explanation:

This does not violate the conservation of energy because the hot body gives energy in the form of heat to the colder body, this second absorbs energy. This will be the case until both bodies reach the same temperature, reaching thermal equilibrium and reducing the transfer of thermal energy. In this way the energy was only transferred from one body to another but the total energy of the system (body 1 plus body 2) will be the same as in the beginning, respecting the principle of conservation of energy or also called the first principle of thermodynamics .

The part of physics that studies these processes is in turn called heat transfer or heat transfer or thermal transfer. Heat transfer occurs whenever there is a thermal gradient or when two systems with different temperatures come into contact. The process persists until thermal equilibrium is reached, that is, until temperatures are equalized. When there is a temperature difference between two objects or regions close enough, the heat transfer cannot be stopped, it can only be slowed down.

Describe the difference between a soil horizon and a soil profile
mario62 [17]

Soil profile includes all the sections/ horizons of the vertical soil depth from top to bottom including the transitions from one horizon to another. A soil horizon is a distinct layer/section of soil with more or less the same texture. Therefore, a soil profile is made of soil horizons.

2 m3 of an ideal gas are compressed from 100 kPa to 200 kPa. As a result of the process, the internal energy of the gas increase
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

work done is -150 kJ

Explanation:

given data

volume v1 = 2 m³

pressure p1 = 100 kPa

pressure p2 = 200 kPa

internal energy = 10 kJ

heat is transferred  = 150 kJ

solution

we know from 1st law of thermodynamic is

Q = du +W    ............1

put here value and we get

-140 = 10 + W

W = -150 kJ

as here work done is -ve so we can say work is being done on system

four children pull on the same stuffed toy at the same time , yet there is no net force on the toy.how is this possible?
Kay [80]
There was no net force on the stuffed toy, because the kids might have the same strength,  The same force is on both sides of it.  T<span>hey cancel each other out. They exert a force on the stuffed toy equal in strength but opposite in direction. The forces are balanced and the stuffed toy does not move.  </span>Its like a game of tug-o-war, but you and I have the same strength. the rope would be still and not moving.
