Answer:

Explanation:

ASSUMING your speed is constant

f₀ = f(v + vo)/(v + vs)

   Δf = f approach - f depart

69.5 = (769(343 + vo)/(343 + 0)) - (769(343 - vo)/(343 + 0))

69.5 = 769(2vo/343)

  vo = 15.5 m/s

A boy shoves his stuffed toy zebra down a frictionless chute. It starts at a height of 1.69 m above the bottom of the chute with
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

x = 6.94 m

Explanation:

For this exercise we can find the speed at the bottom of the ramp using energy conservation

Starting point. Higher

            Em₀ = K + U = ½ m v₀² + m g h

Final point. Lower

            Em_{f} = K = ½ m v²

            Em₀ = Em_{f}

            ½ m v₀² + m g h = ½ m v²

            v² = v₀² + 2 g h

             

Let's calculate

             v = √(1.23² + 2 9.8 1.69)

             v = 5.89 m / s

In the horizontal part we can use the relationship between work and the variation of kinetic energy

            W = ΔK

            -fr x = 0- ½ m v²  

               

Newton's second law

              N- W = 0

     

The equation for the friction is

               fr = μ N

               fr = μ m g

We replace

             μ m g x = ½ m v²

             x = v² / 2μ g

Let's calculate

            x = 5.89² / (2 0.255 9.8)

            x = 6.94 m

A box slides down a 30.0° ramp with an acceleration of 1.20 m/s^2. Determine the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box
Zielflug [23.3K]

m = mass of the box

N = normal force on the box

f = kinetic frictional force on the box

a = acceleration of the box

μ = coefficient of kinetic friction

perpendicular to incline , force equation is given as

N = mg Cos30                                         eq-1

kinetic frictional force is given as

f = μ N

using eq-1

f = μ mg Cos30    


parallel to incline , force equation is given as

mg Sin30 - f = ma

mg Sin30 - μ mg Cos30  = ma

"m" cancel out

a = g Sin30 - μ g Cos30

inserting the values

1.20 = (9.8) Sin30 - (9.8) Cos30 μ

μ = 0.44

A girl is floating in a freshwater lake with her head just above the water. If she weighs 610 N, what is the volume of the subme
Elden [556K]

Answer:

The volume of the submerged part of her body is 0.0622m^{3}

Explanation:

Let's define the buoyant force acting on a submerged object.

In a submerged object acts a buoyant force which can be calculated as :

B=ρ.V.g

Where ''B'' is the buoyant force

Where ''ρ'' is the density of the fluid

Where ''V'' is the submerged volume of the object

Where ''g'' is the acceleration due to gravity

Because the girl is floating we can state that the weight of the girl is equal to the buoyant force.

We can write :

W_{girl}=B (I)

Where ''W'' is weight

⇒ If we consider ρ = 1000\frac{kg}{m^{3}} (water density) and g=9.81\frac{m}{s^{2}} and replacing this values in the equation (I) ⇒

B=W_{girl}

B=610N

ρ.V.g = 610N

1000\frac{kg}{m^{3}}.V.(9.81\frac{m}{s^{2}})=610N (II)

The force unit ''N'' (Newton) is defined as

N=kg.\frac{m}{s^{2}}

Using this in the equation (II) :

(9810\frac{N}{m^{3}}).V =610N

V=\frac{610N}{9810\frac{N}{m^{3}}}

V=0.0622m^{3}

We find that the volume of the submerged part of her body is 0.0622m^{3}

A 150 g copper bowl contains 210 g of water, both at 24.0°C. A very hot 430 g copper cylinder is dropped into the water, causing
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

A. 15969.22 cal

B. 1052,22 cal

C. 528,87 °C

Explanation:

To solve this kind of question, a proper method is to work from the data that you have towards the data that you need. Also, it is recommended to analyze related equations as they could give us clues on how to find the missing information or the information that the problem is asking us.

Let us start with Question A. It is important to remember that energy transfers with the environment are being neglected; this means that all the energy that the cylinder lose is picked up by the water and the copper bowl. To find the amount of energy transferred to the water, we first find the amount of energy necessary to raise the water’s temperature to 100°C and then we find the amount of energy necessary to evaporate the 17.1 g of water indicated by the question. This would be:

Q = m_water * CP_water *∆T =210g *1 cal/(g K) * (100°C-24°C) = 15960 cal

Q_evap = m_wat * L = 17,1 g * 539 cal/kg* (1 kg)/(1000 g) =9.2169 cal

Therefore, the total energy that was transferred to the water is the sum of these components, that would be Q_tot = 15960 cal + 9.2159 cal = 15969.22 cal.  Let´s also remember that a temperature difference in K is equal to a temperature difference in ° C

To solve Question B, we use the same method. We must find the amount of energy necessary to raise the temperature from its initial temperature to the one stated by the problem to be the equilibrium temperature of the system (100°C):

Q= m_copper *CP_copper *∆T = 150g * 0.0923 cal/(g K) * (100°C-24°C) = 1052,22 cal

If we add the components we just found in questions A and B, we can find the amount of energy than the Copper cylinder lost, this would be: Q_tot = 15969.22 cal + 1052.22 cal = 17021.44 cal.

The question C asks us to find the initial temperature of the cylinder and Q_tot will help us to find it.

We know that Q_tot is the energy lost by the cylinder and we also know that Q_tot = m_cylinder * CP_copper * ∆T. Therefore, what we need to do  is clear the last term of the equation and find the initial temperature.

Q_tot = m_cylinder *CP_copper *∆T → T_fin-T_initial = Q_tot/(m_cylinder*CP_copper ) = (-17021.44 cal)/(430g*0.0923 cal/(g K))

→ T_initial = 100°C + (-17021.44 cal)/(430g * 0.0923 cal/(g K)) = 528,87 °C

If we convert the 100°C to K before we do the calculation, the result would be the same one, You would only need to add 273,15 to the final result to check it out.  

Hope everything was clear. If you have any further question, I'll be happy to help :D
