A total of 1.1 × 10⁵Joules energy was dissipated by friction

\texttt{ }

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

<em>Let's recall </em><em>Kinetic Energy</em><em> Formula as follows:</em>

Ek = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

Ek = Kinetic Energy ( Joule )

m = mass of the object ( kg )

v = speed of the object ( m/s )

Let us now tackle the problem !

<u>Complete Questions:</u>

A 66-kg skier starts from rest at the top of a 1200-m long trail which drops a total of 170 m from top to bottom. at the bottom, the skier is moving 11.0 m/s. How much energy was dissipated by friction?

<u>Given:</u>

mass of skier = m = 66 kg

height of trail = h = 170 m

velocity of skier = v = 11.0 m/s

<u>Asked:</u>

work done by friction = W = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

W = Ep - Ek

W = mgh - \frac{1}{2}mv^2

W = 66(9.8)(170) - \frac{1}{2}(66)(11.0)^2

W = 109956 - 3993

W = 105963 \texttt{ J}

W \approx 1.1 \times 10^5 \texttt{ J}

\texttt{ }

<h3>Conclusion:</h3>

A total of 1.1 × 10⁵ Joules energy was dissipated by friction

I believe this question ask for the energy dissipated by friction.

The overall energy equation for this is:

F = PE – KE

where F is friction loss, PE is potential energy = m g h, KE is kinetic energy = 0.5 m v^2

 

<span>F = 66 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * 170 m – 0.5 * 66  kg * (11 m/s)^2</span>

<span>F = 105,963 J  ~  106,000 J </span>

Indica qué es una propiedad específica de la materia. Además explica por qué son útiles las propiedades específicas de la materi

Explanation:

English Translation

Indicate what a specific property of matter is. Also explain why the specific properties of matter are useful compared to the general ones.

Solution

The specific properties of matter are properties that describes the intensive properties of the system. They are properties that do not depend on or change with the extent or size of the system. They are usually obtained by dividing the generalised properties or extensive properties by the extent or size of matter to make them independent of size/extent/Mass.

Examples of specific properties include specific heat capacity, specific volume etc. They usually have units of general units/Mass units.

The specific properties of matter are more important than the general ones because

- They help in general comparisons of the properties of different materials. They are used to rank, classify and compare properties of different materials.

- They are used in reference table/data to easily record easily accessible properties of matter. It helps to record standards that are general and independent of sizes/extents/Mass, thereby keeping the reference table/data/chart precise and concise.

- They provide us with values that are easy to memorize and remember, unlike trying to cram the different properties of different masses/sizes of matter.

In Spanish/En español

Las propiedades específicas de la materia son propiedades que describen las propiedades intensivas del sistema. Son propiedades que no dependen ni cambian con la extensión o el tamaño del sistema. Por lo general, se obtienen dividiendo las propiedades generalizadas o las propiedades extensivas por la extensión o el tamaño de la materia para hacerlas independientes del tamaño / extensión / masa.

Los ejemplos de propiedades específicas incluyen capacidad calorífica específica, volumen específico, etc. Usualmente tienen unidades de unidades generales / unidades de masa.

Las propiedades específicas de la materia son más importantes que las generales porque

- Ayudan en las comparaciones generales de las propiedades de diferentes materiales. Se utilizan para clasificar, clasificar y comparar propiedades de diferentes materiales.

- Se utilizan en la tabla / datos de referencia para registrar fácilmente propiedades de materia fácilmente accesibles. Ayuda a registrar estándares que son generales e independientes de tamaños / extensiones / masa, manteniendo así la tabla / datos / tabla de referencia precisa y concisa.

- Nos proporcionan valores que son fáciles de memorizar y recordar, a diferencia de tratar de agrupar las diferentes propiedades de diferentes masas / tamaños de materia.

Hope this Helps!!!

How does a sound wave transfer energy to your ears ?
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

A. Particles in air move in circles as the wave moves forward.

B. Particles in air move forward but not backward as the wave moves

forward.

C. Particles in air move up and down as the wave moves forward.

✔ D. Particles in air move forward and backward as the wave moves

forward.

Explanation:

The waves transfer energy from the source of the sound, e.g. a drum, to its surroundings. Your ear detects sound waves when vibrating air particles cause your ear drum to vibrate. The bigger the vibrations the louder the sound.
