n the railroad accident, a boxcar weighting 200 kN and traveling at 3 m/s on horizontal track slams into a stationary caboose weighting 400 kN. The collision connects the caboose to the car, and then both move together and you have found the final velocity. Apparently, initial kinetic energy of the system changes (in part, because of friction present). How much energy (in kJ) is transferred from kinetic energy to other forms of energy (e..g., thermal) in the collision

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

ΔK = -6 10⁴ J

Explanation:

This is a crash problem, let's start by defining a system formed by the two trucks, so that the forces during the crash have been internal and the moment is preserved

initial instant. Before the crash

        p₀ = m v₁ + M 0

final instant. Right after the crash

        p_f = (m + M) v

        p₀ = p_f

        mv₁ = (m + M) v

        v = [tex]\frac{m}{m+M} \ v_1[/tex]

     

we substitute

        v = [tex]\frac{20}{20+40}[/tex]   3

        v = 1.0 m / s

having the initial and final velocities, let's find the kinetic energy

        K₀ = ½ m v₁² + 0

        K₀ = ½ 20 10³ 3²

        K₀ = 9 10⁴ J

        K_f = ½ (m + M) v²

        K_f = ½ (20 +40) 10³  1²

        K_f = 3 10⁴ J

the change in energy is

       ΔK = K_f - K₀

       ΔK = (3 - 9) 10⁴

       ΔK = -6 10⁴ J

The negative sign indicates that the energy is ranked in another type of energy

En un recipiente con mercurio (13.6 gr/cm3) se sumerge completamente un cuerpo de 900 gramos de masa. AL medir su peso aparente este marca 2.94 newton en el dinamómetro. Cual es la densidad del cuerpo (kg/m3)

Answers

Answer:

      ρ = 20.4 kg / m³

Explanation:

For this exercise we use Archimedes' principle, the thrust on a submerged body is equal to the weight of the released liquid

           B = ρ g V_liquid           (1)

let's write the equilibrium equation

           F -W + B = 0

           B = W -F

let's calculate

           B = 0.900 9.8 - 2.94

            B = 5.88 N

From equation 1

            V_{liquid} =  [tex]\frac{B}{\rho_{Hg} g}[/tex]

            V_{liquid} = [tex]\frac{5.88}{13.6 \ 10^3 \ 9.8}[/tex]

            V_{liquid} = 4.41176 10⁻⁵ m³

       

in this case it is indicated that the body is completely submerged

           V_body = V_liquid = V

     the definition of density is

           ρ = m / V

           ρ = [tex]\frac{0.900 \ 10^{-3}}{ 4.41176 \ 10^{-5} }[/tex]

           ρ = 2.04 10¹ kg / m³

           ρ = 20.4 kg / m³

Ocean breezes are due to which method of heat transfer?
A. conduction
B. convection
C. greenhouse gases
D. radiation
E. geothermal energy

Answers

It’s convection. Land warms and cools faster than water, so At night the heat moves from the land into the ocean. That kind of movement is called convection, where heat moves to cool places.

Ocean breezes are primarily due to convection, which is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids or gases.  The correct option is B.

What is convection?

Convection is a method of heat transfer that occurs in fluids (liquids and gases) and involves the movement of material carrying thermal energy. In convection, heat is transferred by the movement of hot fluid from one place to another, which then causes the transfer of heat from the hot fluid to the cooler fluid or surface it comes into contact with.

Convection can occur in two ways:

Natural convection: It occurs due to the density differences caused by temperature variations within a fluid. When a fluid is heated, its density decreases, making it lighter and causing it to rise. As it rises, it cools, becomes denser and falls back down, creating a cycle that is known as a convection current.

Forced convection: In this type of convection, a fluid is forced to flow over a surface or through a channel, by an external agent like a fan or pump. The forced flow enhances the rate of heat transfer from the surface or through the channel, as compared to natural convection, where the fluid flow is driven only by buoyancy forces.

Convection is a very important process for heat transfer in many natural and industrial applications, including heating and cooling systems, meteorology, oceanography, and more.

Here in the Question,

Ocean breezes are primarily due to convection, which is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids or gases. As the sun heats up the surface of the ocean, the air above it also heats up and rises. This creates a low pressure area that draws in cooler air from over the land, resulting in a breeze that blows from the ocean towards the shore. This is why sea breezes are generally felt during the day, when the land is warmer than the sea, and why they tend to die down at night, when the opposite occurs.

Therefore, The correct answer is B i.e convection.

A car drives 30 m north in 1.5 seconds and drives 60 east in 2 seconds. What is the average velocity

Answers

Answer:

19.2 m/s

Explanation:

From the question,

Velocity = displacement/time = d/t

V = d/t.................................. Equation 1

Average velocity = Total displacement/ total time

Total dispalcement = √(30²+60²) = √4500 = 67.08 m

Total time = 1.5+2 = 3.5 s.

Substitute these value into equation 1

V = 67.08/3.5

V = 19.2 m/s.

Hence the average velocity is 19.2 m/s

The parameter given for the car during transit is 30 m north in 1.5 seconds and drives 60 east in 2 seconds, we want to find the average velocity.

average velocity is 19.2 m/s

Solution

The expression for Average velocity is

Average velocity = Total Displacement/ Total time Taken...............Eqn 1

Total Displacement = √(30²+60²) = √4500 = 67.08 m

Total time = 1.5+2 = 3.5 s.

From the Equation 1

Average Velocity = 67.08/3.5

V = 19.2 m/s.

Therefore, the average velocity is 19.2 m/s

What three factors affect the acceleration of an object?

Answers

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object depends directly upon the net force acting upon the object, and inversely upon the mass of the object. As the force acting upon an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is increased. As the mass of an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is decreased

The three factors are net force, the mass of the object and the direction of the force.

What is acceleration?

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity. It is also defined as the ratio of the net force acting on the body to the mass of the body.

The acceleration of an object depends directly upon the net force acting upon the object, and inversely upon the mass of the object. and the direction of the force.

As the force acting upon an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is increased. As the mass of an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is decreased.

The acceleration of gravity is 9.8m/s 2 .

Answers

Answer:

 μ = 0.179

Explanation:

For this exercise we use the rotational equilibrium condition, where we set a reference system at the top of the ladder where it is in contact with the parent, we will assume the counterclockwise rotations as positive

         ∑ τ = 0

         W_stairs x/2 + W_man x’+ fr y - N x = 0

          fr y = -W_stairs x/2 - W_man x’ + N x

let's use trigonometry for distances

* the man up the ladder 78%

            l ’= 0.78 L

            cos 59 = x ’/ l’

            x’= 0.78 L cos 59

* the horizontal distance

           cos 59 = x / L

            x = L cos 59

* vertical distance

            sin 59 = Y / L

            y = L sin 59

we substitute

           fr L sin 59 = -W_stairs Lcos59 / 2 - W_man 0.78 L cos59 + N L cos59

           fr sin 59 = - ½ W_stairs cos 59 - 0.78 W_man cos 59 + N cos 59

           fr = ctan 59  (N - ½ W_stairs - 0.78 W_man)     (1)

Let's write the translational equilibrium equations

Y axis  

           N -W_stairs - W_man = 0

           N = W_stairs + W_man

           N = 85 + 21.5 9.8

           N = 295.7 N

we substitute in 1

           fr = ctg 59 (295.7 - ½ 85 - 0.78 21.5 9.8)

           fr = 0.6 (295.7 - 42.5 - 164.346)

           fr = 52.89 N

the expression for the friction force is

            fr = μ N

            μ = fr / N

             μ = 52.89 / 295.7  

             μ = 0.179

Cual es la rapidez media de un guepardo que recorre 100 metros en 4 segundos? ¿Y si recorre 50 m en 2 s?

Answers

Answer:

La rapidez media es 25 m/s en ambos casos.

Explanation:

Podemos definir como rapidez media al cociente entre la distancia total recorrida y el tiempo que se tardó en recorrer dicha distancia.

Así tenemos:

Rapidez media = Distancia/tiempo.

Entonces si el guepardo recorre 100m en 4 segundos, su rapidez media es:

Rapidez media = 100m/4s = 25 m/s

En el caso de que el guepardo recorre 50 metros en 2 segundos, su rapidez media será:

rapidez media = 50m/2s = 25m/s

Es el mismo resultado, pues recorrió la mitad de distancia en la mitad de tiempo.

An experiment is carried out to measure the extension of a rubber band for different loads.

Answers

Complete question is;

An experiment is carried out to measure the extension of a rubber band for different loads.

The results are shown in the image attached.

What figure is missing from the table?

Answer:

17.3 cm

Explanation:

The image attached showed values for load, extension and initial length.

Now, the first length there is 15.2 cm and as such it's corresponding extension is 0 because it has no preceding measured length.

The second measured length is 16.2 cm. Since it's initial measured length is 15.2 cm, then the extension has a formula; final length - initial length.

This gives: 16.2 - 15.2 = 1 cm

This corresponds to what is given in the table.

For the next measured length, it is blank but we are given the extension to be 2.1 cm. Now, since the initial measured length is 15.2 cm.

Thus;

2.1 cm = Final length - 15.2 cm

Final length = 15.2 + 2.1

Final length = 17.3 cm
