Explain why does the bowling ball decelerate as it travels along the lane

Physics
1 answer:
frutty [35]3 years ago
5 0

The main cause of this is Friction. The more oil that is laid down, the less friction there is between the ball and the lane surface. The less friction, the harder it is for the bowler to send the ball in a curved path imparted by the spin that the bowler puts on the ball at the instant of release.

A 66.5kg astronaut is doing a repair in space on the orbiting space station. She throws a 2.30kg tool away from her at 3.10m/s r
MrRa [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of astronaut, M = 66.5 kg

mass of tool, m = 2.3 kg

velocity of tool, v = 3.10 m/s

Let the velocity of astronaut is V.

(A) According to the conservation of moemntum

Momentum of astronaut = Momentum of tool

M x V = m x v

66.5 x V = 2.3 x 3.10

V = 0.107 m/s

(B) The direction of motion of astronaut is opposite to the direction of motion of tool.

A Carnot engine operates between two heat reservoirs at temperatures THTH and TCTC. An inventor proposes to increase the efficie
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

e_12=1-Tc/Th

This is same as the original Carnot engine.  

Explanation:

For original Carnot engine, its efficiency is given by

e = 1-Tc/Th

For the composite engine, its efficiency is given by

e_12=(W_1+W_2)/Q_H1

where Q_H1 is the heat input to the first engine, W_1 s the work done by the first engine and W_2 is the work done by the second engine.  

But the work done can be written as  

W= Q_H + Q_C with Q_H as the heat input and Q_C as the heat emitted to the cold reservoir. So.  

e_12=(Q_H1+Q_C1+Q_H2+Q_C2)/Q_H1

But Q_H2 = -Q_C1 so the second and third terms in the numerator cancel  

each other.

 e_12=1+Q_C2/Q_H1

but, Q_C2/Q_H2= -T_C/T'

⇒ Q_C2 = -Q_H2(T_C/T')

               = Q_C1(T_C/T')

(T1 is the intermediate temperature)  

But, Q_C1 = -Q_H1(T'/T_H)

so, Q_C2 =  -Q_H1(T'/T_H)(T_C/T') = Q_H1(T_C/T_H) So the efficiency of the composite engine is given by  

e_12=1-Tc/Th

This is same as the original Carnot engine.

How is thermal energy transferred during conduction? Check all that apply.
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

B, C, F

Explanation:

Conduction is heat transfer by means of molecular agitation within a material without any motion of the material as a whole. If one end of a metal rod is at a higher temperature, then energy will be transferred down the rod toward the colder end because the higher speed particles will collide with the slower ones with a net transfer of energy to the slower ones.

I would provide the source, but this is not allowed as it seems the website does not encourage learning of well-established materials.

Let me know if you require a further explanation
