Answer:

As the person moves down the zip wire, her increase in kinetic energy is less than her decrease in gravitational potential energy.

Explanation:

Work is done against the air resistance, causing thermal energy to transfer to the surroundings

Evaporation of sweat requires energy and thus take excess heat away from the body. Some of the water that you drink may eventual

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

The amount of heat required is $H_t = 1.37 *10^{6} \ J$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of water is $m_w = 20 \ ounce = 20 * 28.3495 = 5.7 *10^2 g$

The temperature of the water before drinking is $T_w = 3.8 ^oC$

The temperature of the body is $T_b = 36.6^oC$

Generally the amount of heat required to move the water from its former temperature to the body temperature is

$H= m_w * c_w * \Delta T$

Here $c_w$ is the specific heat of water with value $c_w = 4.18 J/g^oC$

$H= 5.7 *10^2 * 4.18 * (36.6 - 3.8)$

=> $H= 7.8 *10^{4} \ J$

Generally the no of mole of sweat present mass of water is

$n = \frac{m_w}{Z_s}$

Here $Z_w$ is the molar mass of sweat with value

$Z_w = 18.015 g/mol$

=> $n = \frac{5.7 *10^2}{18.015}$

=> $n = 31.6 \ moles$

Generally the heat required to vaporize the number of moles of the sweat is mathematically represented as

$H_v = n * L_v$

Here $L_v$ is the latent heat of vaporization with value $L_v = 7 *10^{3} J/mol$

=> $H_v = 31.6 * 7 *10^{3}$

=> $H_v = 1.29 *10^{6} \ J$

Generally the overall amount of heat energy required is

$H_t = H + H_v$

=> $H_t = 7.8 *10^{4} + 1.29 *10^{6}$

=> $H_t = 1.37 *10^{6} \ J$

Rod A has twice the diameter of rod B, but both are made of iron and have the same initial length. Both rods are now subjected t

Vilka [71]

Answer:

ΔLa/ΔLb = 1

Explanation:

The change in length of a solid is given by the following formula:

ΔL = α L ΔT

where,

ΔL = Change in length

α = coefficient of linear expansion

L = Original Length

ΔT = Change in Temperature

Since, the length and change in temperature for both rods are same. Also, the material of each rod is same, which implies that coefficient of linear expansion for both rods is same. Hence, the ratio of change in length of both rods will be:

ΔLa/ΔLb = 1

1. Each year at a college, there is a tradition of having a hoop rolling competition. Alex rolls his 0.350 kg hoop down the cour

grigory [225]

Question 1:

Answer:

The moment of inertia of Alex's rolling hoop is 0.197 $kg \cdot cm^2$

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the hoop = 0.350 g

Radius of the hoop = 75.0 cm

To Find:

The moment of inertia of Alex's rolling hoop = ?

Solution:

The moment of inertia = $mr^2$

where

m is the mass

r is the radius

Converting cm to m, we get

75.0 cm = 0.75 m

Now substituting the values,

=> moment of inertia = $(0.350)(0.75)^2$

=> moment of inertia = $(0.350)(0.5625)$

=> moment of inertia = $(0.197)$

Question 2:

Answer:

The combined angular momentum of the masses is 1.76 $kg m^2 s^{-1}$

If she pulls her arms in to 0.12 m, her new linear speed is $18.33 m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given:

Mass = 2.0 kg

Radius = 0.8 m

Velocity = 1.2 m/s

a.The combined angular momentum of the masses:

$L = r \cdot m \cdot v_1$

Substituting the values,

$L = 0.8 \cdot 2.0 \cdot 1.1$

L= 1.76 $kg m^2 s^{-1}$

b. If she pulls her arms in to 0.12 m, what is her new linear speed

$0.12 \cdot 0.8 \cdot v_2 = 1.76$

$0.096 cdot v_2 = 1.76$

$v_2 = \frac{1.76}{0.096}$

$v_2 = 18.33 m/s^2$

An activity that is relatively short in time (< 10 seconds) and has few repetitions predominately uses the _____________ ener

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

An activity that is relatively short in time <10 seconds and has few repetitions predominantly uses the ATP/PC energy system. The cellular respiration procedure that changes food energy into ATP which is a form of energy is largely reliant on oxygen obtainability. During exercise the source and request of oxygen obtainable to muscle is unnatural by period and strength and by the individual’s cardiorespiratory suitability level.
Steps of the ATP-PC system:

1. Primarily, ATP kept in the myosin cross-bridges which is microscopic contractile parts of muscle is broken down to issue energy for muscle shrinkage. This action consents the by-products of ATP breakdown which are the adenosine diphosphate and one single phosphate all on its own.

2. Phosphocreatine is then broken down by the enzyme creatine kinase into creatine and phosphate.

3. The energy free in the breakdown of PC permits ADP and Pi to rejoin creating more ATP. This newly made ATP can now be broken down to issue energy to fuel activity.
