Water is used as a coolant in automobiles radiators because it has high specific heat capacity. So, it absorbs a large amount of heat for a degree rise in temperature.

Answer: Gradient Wind

Explanation:

Gradient wind, is the wind that accounts for air flow along a curved trajectory. It is an extension of the concept of geostrophic wind; for example the wind assumed to move along straight and parallel isobars (lines of equal pressure). The gradient wind represents the actual wind better than the geostrophic wind, especially when both wind speed and trajectory curvature are large, because they are in hurricanes and jet streams.

2. A person applies a force of 66 N to a fridge as they push it across the length of a standard tennis court. So far today, the

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

$P=39.2205\, watt$

$E=374.948 \,cal$

Explanation:

Given that:

force applied, $F=66\,N$

displacement, $s=23.77\,m$ (length of a tennis court)

time taken for pushing, t = 40 s

Since, work is given by:

$W=F.s$

$W=66\times 23.77$

$W=1568.82\,J$

Now, power is given as:

$P=\frac{W}{t}$

$P=\frac{1568.82}{40}$

$P=39.2205 \,watt$

Calories consumed is:

$E= 1568.82\times 0.239$

$E=374.948\, cal$

At what displacement of a sho is the energy half kinetic and half potential? what fraction of the total energy of a sho is kinet

expeople1 [14]

As we know that KE and PE is same at a given position

so we will have as a function of position given as

$KE = \frac{1}{2}m\omega^2(A^2 - x^2)$

also the PE is given as function of position as

$PE = \frac{1}{2}m\omega^2x^2$

now it is given that

KE = PE

now we will have

$\frac{1}{2}m\omega^2(A^2 - x^2) = \frac{1}{2}m\omega^2x^2$

$A^2 - x^2 = x^2$

$2x^2 = A^2$

$x = \frac{A}{\sqrt2}$

so the position is 0.707 times of amplitude when KE and PE will be same

Part b)

KE of SHO at x = A/3

we can use the formula

$KE = \frac{1}{2}m\omega^2(A^2 - x^2)$

now to find the fraction of kinetic energy

$f = \frac{KE}{TE} = \frac{A^2 - x^2}{A^2}$

$f = \frac{A^2 - (\frac{A}{3})^2}{A^2}$

$f_k = \frac{8}{9}$

now since total energy is sum of KE and PE

so fraction of PE at the same position will be

$f_{PE} = 1 - f_k$

$f_{PE} = 1 - (8/9) = 1/9$
