Answer:

Explanation:
As we know by first law of thermodynamics that for ideal gas system we have
Heat given = change in internal energy + Work done
so here we will have
Heat given to the system = 2.2 kJ
Q = 2200 J
also we know that work done by the system is given as

so we have



Answer:
The maximum speed of sonic at the bottom of the hill is equal to 19.85m/s and the spring constant of the spring is equal to (497.4xmass of sonic) N/m
Energy approach has been used to sole the problem.
The points of interest for the analysis of the problem are point 1 the top of the hill and point 2 the bottom of the hill just before hitting the spring
The maximum velocity of sonic is independent of the his mass or the geometry. It is only depends on the vertical distance involved
Explanation:
The step by step solution to the problem can be found in the attachment below. The principle of energy conservation has been applied to solve the problem. This means that if energy disappears in one form it will appear in another.
As in this problem, the potential and kinetic energy at the top of the hill were converted to only kinetic energy at the bottom of the hill. This kinetic energy too got converted into elastic potential energy .
x = compression of the spring = 0.89
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.
Answer: in the smaller/ thinner pieces.
