a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

The minimum speed of the box bottom of the incline so that it will reach the skier is 8.19 m/s.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the box, m = 2.2 kg

The box is inclined at an angle of 30 degrees

Vertical distance, d = 3.1 m

The coefficient of friction, \mu=6\times 10^{-2}

Using the work energy theorem, the loss of kinetic energy is equal to the sum of gain in potential energy and the work done against friction.

KE=PE+W

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh+W

W is the work done by the friction.

W=f\times d

f=\mu mg\ cos\theta

W=\mu mg\ cos\theta\times \dfrac{d}{sin\theta}

W=\dfrac{\mu mgh}{tan\theta}

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh+\dfrac{\mu mgh}{tan\theta}

\dfrac{1}{2}v^2=gh+\dfrac{\mu gh}{tan\theta}

\dfrac{1}{2}v^2=9.8\times 3.1+\dfrac{6\times 10^{-2}\times 9.8\times 3.1}{tan(30)}

v = 8.19 m/s

So, the speed of the box is 8.19 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

lawyer [7]
A device that uses electricity and magnetism to create motion is called a "Motor" (which converts electric energy into mechanical energy) & <span>In a reverse process, a device that uses motion and magnetism can be used to create "Electromagnetism".

In short, 1st Blank = Motor
2nd Blank = Electromagnetism 

Hope this helps!</span>

A closed, rigid container holding 0.2 moles of a monatomic ideal gas is placed over a Bunsen burner and heated slowly, starting
Georgia [21]

Answer:

a) 2250 J

b) 0 J

c) 2250 J

Explanation:

a) Since, the process is isochoric

the change in internal energy

\Delta U = n C_v(T_f-T_i)

Here, n = 0.2 moles

Cv = 12.5 J/mole.K

We have to find T_f so we can use gas equation as

\frac{P_1V_1}{P_2V_2} =\frac{T_i}{T_f}\\Since, V_1=V_2    [isochoric/process]\\\Rightarrow \frac{P_{atm}}{4P_{atm}} = \frac{300}{T_f} \\\Rightarrow T_f = 1200 K

So,  \Delta U= 0.2\times12.5(1200-300)\\=2250 J

b) Since, the process is isochoric no work shall be done.

c) By first law of thermodynamics we have

\Delta U = Q-W\\Since, W = 0\\\Delta U = Q\\Therefore, Q = 2250 J

Since, Q is positive 2250 J of heat will flow into the system.
