Answer:

Thermal energy of an isolated system changes with time If the mechanical energy of that system is constant according to the first law of thermodynamics, which states that thermal energy of an isolated system can still change as long as the total energy of that system does not change.

A bucket weighing 5 lbs is lifted at a constant rate from the bottom of a 100 ft well by a rope which weighs 5 lbs. The bucket h

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

$W_{bucket} = 24934.85\,lbf\cdot ft$

Explanation:

The system is modelled after the Principle of Energy Conservation and the Work-Energy Theorem:

$W_{bucket} = U_{g,B, bucket} - U_{g,A,bucket} +U_{g, B, water}-U_{g,A,water} +U_{g, B, rope} -U_{g,A,rope}$

$W_{bucket} = (5\,lb) (32.174\,\frac{ft}{s^{2}})\cdot (100\,ft-0\,ft) + (25\,lb)\cdot (32.174\,\frac{ft}{s^{2}})\cdot (100\,ft) - (30\,lb)\cdot (32.174\,\frac{ft}{s^{2}})\cdot (0\,ft)+(5\,lb) (32.174\,\frac{ft}{s^{2}})\cdot (100\,ft-50\,ft)$

$W_{bucket} = 24934.85\,lbf\cdot ft$

Is energy made or lost over time

Ann [662]

Well basically in physics and chemistry, the law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant, it is said to be conserved over time. This law means that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, it can only be transformed or transferred from one form to another.

Hope this helps (:

What is the wavelength of an FM radio

AleksandrR [38]

V = 3.0 x 10⁸ m/s (This is the same for all types of electromagnetic waves)

f = 88.6 MHz = 8.86 x 10⁷ Hz

λ = ?

V = fλ

λ = V/f = (3 x 10⁸)/(8.86 x 10⁷)

= 3.4 m [Ans]

Hope this helps!
