You are on vacation in San Francisco and decide to take a cable car to see the city. A 5800-kgkg cable car goes 260 mm up a hill

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

$4.325\times10^6J$

Explanation:

Mass of the cable car, m = 5800 kg

It goes 260 m up a hill, along a slope of $\theta=17^o$

Therefore vertical elevation of the car = $260sin\theta=260sin17^o=76.0166m$

Now, when you get into the cable car, it's velocity is zero, that is, initial kinetic energy is zero (since K.E. = $\frac{1}{2} mv^2$ ). Similarly as the car reaches the top, it halts and hence final kinetic energy is zero.

Therefore the only possible change in the cable car system is the change in it's gravitational potential energy.

Hence, total change in energy = mgh = $5800\times9.81\times76.0166J=4.325\times10^6J$

where, g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height/vertical elevation

In Paul Hewitt's book, he poses this question: "If the forces that act on a bullet and the recoiling gun from which it is fired

Sauron [17]

They have different accelerations because of their masses. According to Newton's Second Law, an objects acceleration is inversely proportional to its mass. Therefore the object with the larger mass, in this case the gun, will have a smaller acceleration. In the same way, the less massive object, being the bullet, will have a higher acceleration.

Hope this helps :)

A swimming pool heater has to be able to raise the temperatureof the 40,000 gallons of water in the pool by 10 degress Celsius.H

andrew11 [14]

Answer:b)1770 kWh

Explanation:

Given

volume of water $V=40,000 gallons$

Temperature rise $\Delta T=10^{\circ}C$

$c=4186 J/kg-^{\circ} C$

also 1 kg mass is approximately is 1 gallon

therefore 40,000 gallon is equivalent to 3.8\times 40000 kg

heat Required to raise temperature is

$Q=mc\Delta T$

$Q=3.8\times 40000\times 4186\times 10$

$Q=63,627.2\times 10^5 J$

$Q=63,672.2\times 10^2 KJ$

$Q=1767.42 kWh\approx 1770 kWh$
