Andrew skis down a hill.



Andrew starts from the top of the hill and his speed increases as he goes downhill.

He controls his speed and direction by using his skis.

He brings himself to a stop at the bottom of the hill.

Describe the energy changes that happen between starting and stopping.

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation:

gravitational potential energy at the top of the hill, which transforms into kinetic energy as he moves bottom of the hill

that's mean potential energy transfoms into kinetic energy

Answer 2

His potential energy is converted into kinetic energy when his speed increases as he goes downhill.

What is mechanical energy?

Mechanical energy is the combination of all the energy in motion represented by total kinetic energy and the total potential energy stored energy in the system which is represented by total potential energy.

Total mechanical energy is s the sum of all the kinetic as well as potential energy stored in the system.

ME = KE + PE

When Andrew skis down a hill then he had stored potential energy due to the height of the hill and his gravitational weight,

Due to the height of the slope and his weight, Andrew had potential energy stored when he skied down it.

As he descended the hill, his speed increased, transforming this potential energy into kinetic energy.

The time (t) required to empty a tank varies inversely as the rate (r) of pumping. If a
pump can empty a tank in 3 hours at a rate of 400 gallons per minute, how long will it
take to empty a tank at 600 gallons per minute?

Answers

Answer:

T = C / R      t = time, C =constant of proportionality, R = rate

180 min = C / 400 gal/min      

C = 72000 gal      to empty tank

T = 72000 gal / 600 gal/min = 120 min = 2 hrs

The student investigates how the resistance of a thermistor varies with temperature. The student has a power supply, a thermistor, an ammeter, a voltmeter and some connecting leads. Describe an investigation the student could carry out to measure the resistance of a thermistor between –10 °C and 70 °C.

Your answer should include:

1. Any other apparatus the student will need
2. The measurements to be taken
3. How the data should be processed.

(This question is worth 6 marks on my assignment so I just really want to get down the best possible answer for it.)

Answers

The characteristics of the thermistors allow to design an experiment to analyze the dependence of resistance with temperature;

      1) We set up the circuit

      2) We look for the current of the circuit and we keep it fixed.

      3) We look for the thermistor resistances for each temperature.

      4) Plot Resistance versus Temperature.

A Thermitor is an element whose resistance changes with temperature, for example a platinum resistance.

An experiment that we can carry out to measure is to set up the attached circuit where we have:

A DC power supply. A resistor to control the maximum current in the circuit and avoid thermal problems in the thermistor. A thermistor. A thermometer placed next to the thermistor. A source of heat under the thermistor under a glass with ice and water, but without affecting the other elements of the circuit.

Let's start by looking for the current in the circuit.

In thermistors, the resistance for room temperature is given, so if we measure the voltage across the fixed resistor, we can shrink the voltage across the thermistor.

         

           [tex]V_{source} = V_R + V_{therm} \\V_{therm} = V_{source} - V_R \\ i = \frac{V_{therm} }{R_{therm}}[/tex]

This current remains fixed, since the fixed resistance is greater than the resistance of the thermistor throughout the range.

Second step.

Now we can change the temperature that is measured in the thermometer, for each temperature the voltage in the fixed resistance is measured, the resistance in the thermistor is calculated.

        [tex]R_{therm} = \frac{V_{source} - V_R}{i}[/tex]  

Third step.

We end with a graph of resistance versus temperature of the curve obtained, it is possible to understand the behavior of the resistance of the thermistor with temperature.

In conclusion with the characteristics of thermistors we can design an experiment to analyze the dependence of resistance with temperature:

      1) We set up the circuit

      2) We look for the current of the circuit and we keep it fixed.

      3) We look for the thermistor resistances for each temperature.

      4) Plot Resistance versus Temperature.

Fill in the blank: In the Northern Hemisphere, June 21 has ______________ than December 21.
A. longer days and more direct sunlight
B. longer days and less direct sunlight
C. shorter days and more direct sunlight
D. shorter days and less direct sunlight

Answers

Answer:

A. longer days and more direst sunlight

Explanation:

In the Northern Hemisphere, June 21 has longer days and more direct sunlight than December 21, so option A is correct.

What is Hemisphere?

Essentially, it alludes to a person's half-divisions. The Earth can be split up into many equal divisions. Latitudinal or longitudinal divisions may be used. Based on a hypothetical equator line, it can be either the northern or Southern Hemisphere, and based on the prime meridian, it can be either the eastern or western hemisphere. When viewed from a latitudinal perspective, the Northern and Southern Hemispheres are essentially hemispheres of the Earth.

The Northern Hemisphere is the region of the Earth that lies above the equator, which is an imaginary line. This hemisphere includes anything that is above this 0° line. It is the half of the planet that has the most people on the planet and more land than water.

The summer solstice falls on June 21 in the Northern Hemisphere and the winter solstice falls on June 21 in the Southern Hemisphere. The solstices are reversed around December 21 and winter officially starts in the Northern Hemisphere.

Therefore, in the Northern Hemisphere, June 21 has longer days and more direct sunlight than December 21.

A ball is dropped from a 20.0 m high tower.

a. How long will it take the ball to reach the ground?

b. What is the velocity of the ball just before it hits the ground?

Answers

Hi there!

We can begin by using the derived kinematic equation:

[tex]t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}[/tex]

Plug in the given values and let g = 9.8 m/s²:

[tex]t = \sqrt{\frac{2(20)}{g}} = \boxed{2.02 s}[/tex]

Now, we can solve for its final velocity using the equation:

[tex]v_f = v_i + at[/tex]

It is dropped from rest, so vi = 0 m/s.

[tex]v_f = at[/tex]

[tex]v_f = 9.8(2.02) = \boxed{19.796 m/s}[/tex]

Answer:

a. The ball would reach the ground in approximately [tex]2.02\; \rm s[/tex].

b. The velocity of the ball right before landing would be approximately [tex]19.8\; \rm m\cdot s^{-1}[/tex].

(Assumptions: the ball was dropped with no initial velocity; air resistance on the ball is negligible; [tex]g = 9.81\; \rm m\cdot s^{-2}[/tex].)

Explanation:

Under these assumptions, the acceleration of this ball would be constantly [tex]a = g = 9.81\; \rm m\cdot s^{-2}[/tex] (same as the gravitational field strength) during the descent.

Displacement of the ball: [tex]x = 20.0\; \rm m[/tex].

Initial velocity of the ball: [tex]v_{0} = 0\; \rm m\cdot s^{-1}[/tex].

Let [tex]t[/tex] denote the duration of this descent.

The SUVAT equation [tex]x = (1/2)\, a\, t^{2} + v_{0}\, t[/tex] relates the known quantities [tex]a[/tex], [tex]x[/tex], and [tex]v_{0}[/tex] to the unknown [tex]t[/tex].

Substitute the known quantities into this equation and solve to find the value of [tex]t\![/tex]:

[tex]\displaystyle 20.0\; {\rm m} = \frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-2}} \times t^{2} + 0\; {\rm m \cdot s^{-1}} \times t[/tex].

[tex]\displaystyle 20.0\; {\rm m} = \frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-2}} \times t^{2}[/tex].

[tex]\displaystyle t^{2} = \frac{20.0\; \rm m}{(1/2) \times 9.81\; \rm m\cdot s^{-2}}[/tex].

Since [tex]t > 0[/tex]:

[tex]\begin{aligned}t &= \sqrt{\frac{20.0\; \rm m}{(1/2) \times 9.81\; \rm m\cdot s^{-2}}} \\ &\approx 2.01928\; \rm s\\ &\approx 2.02\; \rm s \\ & (\text{Rounded to 2 sig. fig.})\end{aligned}[/tex].

Since the acceleration of this ball is constant, the velocity of the ball right before landing would be:

[tex]\begin{aligned}v_{1} &= a\, t \\ &\approx 9.81\; \rm m\cdot s^{-2} \times 2.01928\; \rm s \\ &\approx 19.8\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1} \end{aligned}[/tex].

An electric heater is rated 300W 110V. The safety fuse in the circuit can withstand 15 A of current. How many heaters can be safely operated in the circuit

Answers

The number of heaters that can safely be operated in the circuit is 5 heaters.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Power of heater = 300 W

Voltage (V) = 110 V

Current (I) = 15 A

Number of heaters = ?

Next, we shall determine the power that can be drawn from the circuit. This can be obtained as follow:

Voltage (V) = 110 V

Current (I) = 15 A

Power (P)= ?

P = IV

P = 15 × 110

P = 1650 W

Thus, the power that can be drawn from the circuit is 1650 W

Finally, we shall determine the number of heaters that can be operated in the circuit. This can be obtained as follow:

Power of heater = 300 W

Power of Circuit = 1650 W

Number of heaters = ?

[tex]Number \: of \: heaters \: = \frac{power \: of \: circuit}{power \: of \: heater} \\ \\ = \frac{1650}{300} \\ \\ = 5.5[/tex]

From the calculation made above, the number of heaters that can be operated safely in the circuit is 5 heaters.

You use a rope 2.00 m long to swing a 10 kg weight around your head. The tension in the rope is 20 N. In half a revolution how much work in J is done by the rope on the weight

Answer:

No work is done on the weight. :3

To solve this we must be knowing each and every concept related to work and its calculation. Therefore, 250J is the work done in joule by the rope on the weight.

What is work?

Work in physics is the energy delivered to or out of an item by applying force across a displacement. It is frequently expressed in its most basic form as the combination of displacement and force.

When a force is applied, it is said to produce positive work if it has a proportion in the orientation of the movement of a site of application. Work done is positive when the direction of force acting on the object and displacement of the object both are in the same direction.  

Mathematically,    

Work= force ×displacement

force =20 N

displacement=2.00 m

displacement=2×3.14×2=12.5m

substituting all the given values in the above equation, we get

Work= 20 ×12.5

Work =250J

Therefore, 250J is the work done in joule by the rope on the weight.
