Answer:

Change in temperature =7.14° C

Explanation:

Assuming all potential energy of cylinder is converted into heat energy to increase the temperature .

Work done by gravity in first case =m *g*h= 3*10*500=15000

Let quantity of water be 1 kg at 0°C.

Also specific heat capacity of water is =4200 Joule

So potential energy is converted to m*4200*T(1) =15000

T(1)=3.57

Work done by gravity in first case =m *g*h= 9*10*500=45000

Here also potential energy is converted into m*4200*T(2)=45000

T(2)=10.71

Here temperature is increasing.

Thus change in temperature =T(1) -T(2) =7.14° C

Assume that segment r exerts a force of magnitude t on segment l. what is the magnitude flr of the force exerted on segment r by

mrs_skeptik [129]

If we are talking on the force being exerted by a segment of a rope of lenght R on the right on a point M which is being also pulled from the Left by a segment of rope R as shown in the figure attached. Then we invoke Newton's Third Law:
"Any force exerted by an object (in this case a segment of the rope) also suffers a equal and opposite force".
If we pick $T_R=T$ whis is the tension exerted by the right segment then the left segment will also exert an equal and opposite force so we have that $T_L=-T$

An amusement park ride consists of a car moving in a vertical circle on the end of a rigid boom of negligible mass. The combined weight of the car and riders is 6.00 kN, and the radius of the circle is 15.0 m. At the top of the circle, (a) what is the force FB on the car from the boom (using the minus sign for downward direction) if the car's speed is v 6.0m/s

Answer:

$F_{B}=-5755N$

Explanation:

Set up force equation

∑F=ma

∑F=W+FB

$\frac{mv^{2} }{R}=W+F_{B}\\ F_{B}=\frac{mv^{2} }{R}-W\\F_{B}=\frac{(W/g)v^{2} }{R}-W\\F_{B}=\frac{(6000N/9.8m/s^{2} )(6m/s)^{2} }{(15m)}-6000N\\F_{B}=-5755N$
