(a) a chicken scratching the ground (b) a person studying (c) a crane lifting a bucket of concrete (d) the gravitational force on the bucket in part (c) (e) the leg muscles of a person in the act of sitting down

Answers

Answer 1

(a) The act of a chicken scratching the ground is doing positive work.

(b) A person studying does no work.

(c) A crane lifting a bucket of concrete does positive work.

(d) The gravitational force on the bucket in part (c) does negative work.

(e) When a person sits down, their leg muscles are said to be doing negative work.

We are aware of the work equation as being the result of force and displacement.

(a) The work done will be positive as the chicken is scratching the ground. Here, the displacement is along the direction of force.

(b) As there is no displacement, work done is zero, learning the language of physics is not work.

(c) The crane uses the bucket to perform positive work, and the displacement in this case is in the force's direction.

(d) The force of gravity pulls the bucket downward. In this case, the work completed will be negative because the forces acting on the bucket are in opposition to one another.

(e) Since the muscle's applied force are opposite to the displacement, negative work will be done.

Sherwin and Lia are playing bumper car at town fair. Sherwin and hi cart have a ma of 150 kg. Lia and her cart have a ma of 95 kg. Sherwin i topped when Lia, moving at a velocity of 12 m/, collide with him. If Lia come to a complete top after the colliion, then what i Sherwin' reulting velocity after the colliion?

Answers

Sherwin's resulting velocity after the collision is  18.94m/sec. if his initial velocity is 12m/sec and mass of 150kg.

It is given that Sherwin has initial velocity and Lia is going to start the bumper car. It means that initial velocity of Sherwin is 12m/sec and initial velocity of Lia is 0m/sec. Since, the collision is elastic, it means that energy will not lost during the collision and momentum will remain conserved.

So, applying the law of conservation of momentum which is

Initial momentum =Final momentum

=>Initial momentum of Sherwin is=mass × velocity

=>Initial momentum of Sherwin=150 × 12m/sec

Now, initial momentum of Lia is =mass × velocity

=>Initial momentum of Lia is =95×0=0m/sec

Now, final momentum of Sherwin=0m/sec since collision is elastic

Also, final momentum of Lia is =95×v

According to the formula, we get

=>150 × 12 +0 =0  + 95×v

=>95×v=150 × 12

=>v=(150 × 12)/95

=>v=1800/95

=>v=18.94m/sec

Hence,  Sherwin velocity is 18.94m/sec.

The absorption coefficient ,[tex]\beta[/tex] of PMMA is [tex]0.3\ m^{-1}[/tex] when 0.97 fraction of light is transmitted through 10 mm panel of PMMA.

The absorption coefficient determines how far light of a specific wavelength can penetrate before being absorbed. Light is only poorly absorbed in a material with a low absorption coefficient, and if the material is thin enough, it will appear transparent to that wavelength.

Given,

The fraction of light transmitted through PMMA panel = 0.97

Electrical energy is energy generated from the flow of electric charge through a conductor. This energy is utilized in virtually all modern-day appliances, from lightbulbs to cell phones to electric cars. It is created in power plants, harnessed through transmission lines, and distributed to consumers. Electrical energy can be converted into other forms of energy, such as heat or light, and can be used to power machines and equipment.

This is done by the battery supplying electrical energy to the switch and the fan, which then converts the energy into rotational energy. This is what causes the fan blades to spin and produces mechanical energy. The mechanical energy produced by the fan is then used to create air movement, which is another form of mechanical energy.

The Trapezium and Nebula are located in front of a cold, dusty "giant molecular cloud" that contains regions of active star formation, around 1500 light years away. A blister on the molecular cloud's front edge gets electrified by the stars of the Trapezium, making it glow.

Identify the stage in star life cycle in which hydrogen is the primary fuel for nuclear fusion?

Answers

Main sequence is the stage of the star's lifecycle in which hydrogen acts as the primary fuel for nuclear fusion.

Life Cycle of Star

These hydrogen and helium elements combine to increase the mass in the centre of the cloud as a result of gravity's contracting force. As mass increases, gravitational pull also expands. All of the molecules and particles in the environment are pulled in by gravity. As the molecules continue to descend into the cloud's core, the cloud's mass rises and the cloud's center begins to heat up. This heated center is known as a protostar.

Now, as additional molecules are drawn to this protostar, the protostar's temperature is rising. The temperature continues to climb until the time comes when the pressure exceeds the point when two hydrogen atoms start to fuse, releasing heat and radiation to create helium.

Nuclear fusion is the process of fusing two hydrogen atoms to create helium by releasing a large amount of energy.

The outward force produced by the radiation and heat emitted now balances the inward force exerted by gravity. The star is born when the force is balanced equally inward and outward.

for a particular process q = –17 kj and w = 21 kj. which of the following statements is false?

Answers

The statement 'the system does work on surroundings' is false because the work done is a positive quantity.

This question can be answered using the first law of thermodynamics.

The First Law of Thermodynamics is a thermodynamic adaptation of the law of conservation of energy. "The overall energy in a system remains constant, even when it may be transformed from one form to another," says one basic expression. Another typical phrase is "energy cannot be generated or destroyed" (in a "closed system"). While there are other nuances and consequences that may be better conveyed in more sophisticated formulations, this is the fundamental premise of the First Law.

According to first law,

U= Q+W

U: internal energy of the system

Q: amount of heat

W: work done

Q= -17 kJ, W= 21 kJ

If Q is positive it means heat flows into the system. If Q is negative it means heat flows out of the system.

In the given question heat s negative which means heat flows into the system.

Work done is positive hence work is done on the system.

U= Q+W

U= -17+21= 4kJ

This is an exothermic process since Q is negative.

Complete question:

For a particular process q = –17 kj and w = 21 kj. Which of the following statements is false?

a) heat flows from the system to the surrounding

b) the system does works on the surrounding

c) U= +4kJ

d) the process is exothermic

e) none of the above is false

suppose earth orbited the sun in 6 months rather than 1 year but had the same rotational period how much longer would a solar day be than sidereal day

Answers

A solar day is 0.50001917 times longer than a sidereal day if the earth's orbital period is shortened to six months.

Earth, what is it?

Earth is just a rocky, earthy planet and is home to us. There are mountains, valleys, canyons, plains, and much more on its stable and dynamic surface. Being an ocean planet, Earth is unique. The Earth's surface is 70% covered by water.

Briefing:

1 Sidereal year = 365.256 days

1 Solar year (1 tropical year) = 365.242 days

The length of time inside a sidereal year is equal to 365.256/2 days, or 182.628 days, if the earth's orbital period is six months.

1 Solar day = 182.256/365.242 sidereal days

1 Solar day = 0.50001917 sidereal day

A solar day is 0.50001917 times longer than a sidereal day if the earth's orbital period is shortened to six months.

1. a million kg asteroid is in the asteroid belt. a 50000 kg chunk of rock floats 400m away. what is the force of gravity between the two asteroids?

Answers

The force of gravity between the two asteroids will be 125 *10^6 n

From the data,

The mass of the first asteroid is = 1 million kg = 1000000 Kg.

The mass of the second asteroid is = 50000 Kg.

The distance between both the asteroids = 400 m

We know,

The force of gravity between two objects can be determined by using the relationship

[tex]F_g=\frac{M_1M_2}{d}[/tex]

So, for determining the value of the force of gravity we will put the value of m1, m2 and d in the above formula:

Thus we will get:

[tex]F_g=\frac{1000000\times 50000}{400}=125,000,000=125\times 10^6\:N[/tex]
