In the winter activity of tubing, riders slide down snow covered slopes while sitting on large inflated rubber tubes. To get to

the top of the slope, a 2.50 kg tube, is pulled at a constant speed by a tow rope that maintains a constant tension of 12.0 N along the direction of the slope. How much thermal energy is created in the slope and the tube during the ascent of a 6.31-m-high, 52.3-m-long slope, in Joule

Answer:

≈ 473 J

Explanation:

m ( mass ) = 2.5 kg

T ( tension ) = 12 N

v = constant

h ( height ) = 6.31 m

d ( diameter ) = 52.3 m

<u>Determine how much thermal energy is created </u>

considering that external force acts on the system

ΔE = W    and this can be rewritten as

mgh + ΔEth = W --------- ( 1 )

where ΔEth  = amount of thermal energy created

also ; W = Fd cos ∅,  hence Work done by Tension force (w) = Td cos 0 = Td

back to equation ( 1 )

mgh + ΔEth = Td

ΔEth  = Td - mgh

         = ( 12 * 52.3 ) - ( 2.5 * 9.8 * 6.31 )

         ≈ 473 J

A car travels across Texas m miles at the rate of t miles per hour. How many hours does the trip take??
Marianna [84]

Answer: The trip takes \frac{m}{t}hours

Explanation:

Velocity V is the variation of the position of a body (distance traveled d) with time T:

V=\frac{d}{T}

In this case, the car travels a distance d=m miles at a velocity V=t \frac{miles}{hour} and we need to find the time it takes the trip.

Isolating  T:

T=\frac{d}{V}=\frac{m miles}{t \frac{miles}{hour}}

Finally:

T=\frac{m}{t}hours

A planet orbits a start with the path shown below.
kvv77 [185]

PART a)

As we know that gravitational potential energy is given by the formula

U = -\frac{Gm_1m_2}{r}

here we can see that gravitational potential energy inversely varies with the distance

so here when distance from the sun is minimum then magnitude of gravitational potential energy is maximum while since it is given with negative sign so its overall value is minimum at that position

So gravitational potential energy is minimum at the nearest point and maximum at the farthest point

PART b)

Since we know that sum of kinetic energy and potential energy is constant here

so the points of minimum potential energy is the point where kinetic energy is maximum which means speed is maximum

So here speed is maximum at the nearest point

Part C)

since gravitational potential energy inversely varies with distance so it's graph will be like hyperbolic graph with distance

if a torque of 55.0 N/m is required and the largest force that can be exerted by you is 135 N what is th e length of the lever a
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

r=0.41m

Explanation:

Torque is defined as the cross product between the position vector ( the lever arm vector connecting the origin to the point of force application) and the force vector.

\tau=r\times F

Due to the definition of cross product, the magnitude of the torque is given by:

\tau=rFsin\theta

Where \theta is the angle between the force and lever arm vectors. So, the length of the lever arm (r) is minimun when sin\theta is equal to one, solving for r:

r=\frac{\tau}{F}\\r=\frac{55\frac{N}{m}}{135N}\\r=0.41m
