A 55 kg skier is at the top of a slope. The vertical distance between start and finish is 10m. (a) What is her Potential Energy? (b) How fast is she moving at the bottom of the hill?

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a skier, m = 55 kg

The vertical distance between start and finish is 10 m.

(a) The potential energy of a skier is given by :

[tex]E=mgh\\\\E=55\times 9.8\times 10\\\\=5390\ J[/tex]

(b) When she reaches the bottom of the hill, the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy. So,

[tex]5390=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 5390}{55}} \\\\v=14\ m/s[/tex]

Hence, her potential energy is 5390 J and at the bottom of the hill she is moving with a speed of 14 m/s.

The energy the Sun gives off is caused by nuclear reactions in its core. The extreme pressure from the weight of the gases that make up the Sun raises the temperature of the core enough for the nuclear reactions to take place. Which law best describes this behavior of gases in the Sun?

Answers

Answer:

The law which describes the behavior of gases in the Sun is Gay-Lussac's Law

Explanation:

The states that the extremely high pressure of the gases in the Sun produces extremely high temperature;

Therefore, the relationship between the pressure, 'P', of the gas and the temperature, 'T', of the gas is a direct relationship, which can be expressed mathematically as follows;

P ∝ T

The law which best describes the behavior of gases in the Sun is Gay-Lussac's Law, which states that the pressure of a given volume of gas varies directly as the absolute temperature of the gas, as follows;

P = K·T

∴ P/T = K (Constant)

[tex]\therefore \dfrac{P_1}{T_1} = \dfrac{P_2}{T_2}[/tex]

A group of friends are going bowling. They discuss how ball weight and speed can change the amount of
kinetic energy transferred to the pins.
They can use a 6 pound, 10 pound or 12 pound ball.
They can roll the ball at 10 miles per hour (beginner), 14 miles per hour (intermediate) or 18 miles per hour (professional) speed.

A. Describe a strategy that they could use to transfer the greatest amount of kinetic energy to the pins.

B. Explain the relationship between kinetic energy and strategy that you chose in part A.

C. Draw a model that demonstrates the energy transfers that occurred in the system.

Answers

Answer:

A. you would want to use the 12 ound ball and the 18 mph speed in order to transfer the most kinetic energy

B. KE= 1/2 MV^2 so you would want to maximize both your Mass(weight of the ball) and Velocity(speed of the roll) in order to achive the greatest KE.

C. see image

27° north of east
45 ° north of east
24° north of east
66° north of east

Answers

Answer:

24° north of east

Explanation:

tan(x)=90/200 ie x=arctan(90/200)=24°

So the plane took off 24° east.

Answer:

24° north of east

Gravitational force

Solution

Newton's Gravity Law:  

[tex]\rm F=G.\dfrac{m_1.m_2}{r^2}[/tex]

with F = gravitational force,  

G = gravitational constant,  

m1, m2 = mass of object,  

r = distance between two objects.  

Input the value :

F = (6.67.10⁻¹¹N.m² / kg² x 1500²) :  50²

F = 6.0 x 10⁻⁸ N

what is the approximate increase in thermal energy in joules when the temperature of 15 grams of water is raised from 20° to 35° C. the specific heat of water is 4.19 j/g degrees Celsius​

Answers

Answer:

942.75J

Explanation:

Change in thermal energy is equal to the mass of the given substance times the specific heat capacity times the temperature change.

We've already been given the specific heat capacity, the mass as well as the initial and final temperatures.

So change in temperature will be 35° - 20° = 15°

Thermal energy change = 15 × 15 × 4.19

The final answer is 942.75J

Hope that helped.
