Risk of not being able to reduce their weight
If a boat is going East at 15mph and there is a water current going southeast at 45° then the boat is being drifted southward. So since the current is going at an angle then it has a x and y component. So Rx refers to the x-component force of the current and Ry refers to the y-component of the current, and |R| refers to the magnitude of these forces.
Answer:
Explanation:
a )
change in the gravitational potential energy of the bear-Earth system during the slide = mgh
= 45 x 9.8 x 11
= 4851 J
b )
kinetic energy of bear just before hitting the ground
= 1/2 m v²
= .5 x 45 x 5.8²
= 756.9 J
c ) If the average frictional force that acts on the sliding bear be F
negative work done by friction
= F x 11 J
then ,
4851 J - F x 11 = 756.9 J
F x 11 = 4851 J - 756.9 J
= 4094.1 J
F = 4094.1 / 11
= 372.2 N
Answer: work must be done on the system (Option A)
Explanation:
The second law of thermodynamics is the fundamental law of nature; it states that energy can be transferred from cold objects to hot objects only, if work is done on the system. If energy is added to the system then as a result the thermal energy would increase. Second law of thermodynamics is used to determine whether a process is spontaneous or not. Moreover,the second law of thermodynamics is also used in refrigerators.
