initial velocity=u=15m/s
Final velocity=v=75m/s
Time=t=5s

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=\dfrac{v-u}{t}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=\dfrac{75-15}{5}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=\dfrac{60}{5}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Acceleration=12m/s^2$

A vinyl record is played by rotating the record so that an approximately circular groove in the vinyl slides under a stylus. Bum

Fed [463]

Answer:

983.400345675 hits per second

Explanation:

Radius = 14.2 cm

Record turn rate = 33 rev/min

Bump separation = 0.499 mm

Circumference of the record = $2\pi 0.142=0.89221231362\ m$

Number of bumps in the groove = $\dfrac{0.89221231362}{0.499\times 10^{-3}}=1788.0006285\ bumps$

The rate which the bumps hit the stylus = $33\times\dfrac{1788.0006285}{60}=983.400345675$

The rate at which the bumps hit the stylus 983.400345675 hits per second

A gas expands at a constant pressure of 3 atm from a volume of 0.02 cubic meters to 0.10 cubic meters. In the process it experie

Nonamiya [84]

a) $2.4\cdot 10^4 J$

For a gas transformation occuring at a constant pressure, the work done by the gas is given by

$W=p(V_f -V_i)$

where

p is the gas pressure

V_f is the final volume of the gas

V_i is the initial volume

For the gas in the problem,

$p=3 atm = 3\cdot 1.013\cdot 10^5 Pa = 3.039\cdot 10^5 Pa$ is the pressure

$V_i = 0.02 m^2$ is the initial volume

$V_f = 0.10 m^3$ is the final volume

Substituting,

$W=(3.039\cdot 10^5 Pa)(0.10 m^3-0.02m^2)=24312 J = 2.4\cdot 10^4 J$

b) $3.24\cdot 10^5 J$

The heat absorbed by the gas can be found by using the 1st law of thermodynamics:

$\Delta U = Q-W$

where

$\Delta U$ is the change in internal energy of the gas

Q is the heat absorbed

W is the work done

Here we have

$\Delta U = 3.0\cdot 10^5 J$

$W=2.4\cdot 10^4 J$

So we can solve the equation to find Q:

$Q=\Delta U + W = 3.0\cdot 10^5 J +2.4\cdot 10^4 J = 3.24\cdot 10^5 J$

And this process is an isobaric process (=at constant pressure).

PLEASE HELP!!! When you lift a book from the ground to your desk, what kind of work do you do, negative or positive? By lifting

Snowcat [4.5K]

When someone lifts a book from the ground, the work you use is positive. By lifting the book, you change it's energy and it's original place The book gains, kinectic energy.

Hope I helped.
