Answer: please see attached work.
Explanation: please see attached work. Assuming 500 sheets of paper = 20 lb. (typicical value).
Answer:
684J
Explanation:
So basically the formula for gravitational potential energy is Mass X Gravity X height. That is G.p.e = mgh
We don't have the mass but since we have the height, we multiply directly with the height since the quantity of weight is already given.
so G.p.e = 360 X 1.9 = 684J
Note that; The answer is in joules because g.p.e is work done.
Hope that was helpful!!
Answer:
C) 100 joules
Explanation:
The kinetic energy of an object is given by:
where m is the mass of the object and v its speed.
In this problem, we have an object of mass m = 50 kg and v = 2 m/s, so by using the formula we can find its kinetic energy:
Answer: A. Work is done on the system and heat is transferred from the system for a net decrease in internal energy.
Explanation:
A refrigerator is a device which dispenses heat from the close system to a warmer area or in the surrounding. By dispensing the heat the internal temperature of the refrigerator drops. The system of refrigerator violates the second law of thermodynamics. As it performs the work to cool the region instead of heating the region. The work is done on the system and the internal energy decreases and the heat energy is liberated to the surrounding area. A refrigerator is an open system.
Answer:
Explanation:
To solve this problem we use the Hooke's Law:
(1)
F is the Force needed to expand or compress the spring by a distance Δx.
The spring stretches 0.2cm per Newton, in other words:
1N=k*0.2cm ⇒ k=1N/0.2cm=5N/cm
The force applied is due to the weight
We replace in (1):
We solve the equation for m:
