Clay Matthews, a linebacker for the Green Bay Packers, can reach a speed of 10.0 m/s. At the start of a play, Matthews runs downfield at 45° with respect to the 50-yard line and covers 8.0 m in 1 s. He then runs straight down the field at 90° with respect to the 50-yard line for 12 m, with an elapsed time of 1.2 s. (a) What is Matthews' final displacement from the start of the play? (b) What is his average velocity?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a)   D_ total = 18.54 m,   b)        v = 6.55 m / s

Explanation:

In this exercise we must find the displacement of the player.

a) Let's start with the initial displacement, d = 8 m at a 45º angle, use trigonometry to find the components

           sin 45 = y₁ / d

           cos 45 = x₁ / d

           y₁ = d sin 45

           x₁ = d sin 45

           y₁ = 8 sin 45 = 5,657 m

           x₁ = 8 cos 45 = 5,657 m

The second offset is d₂ = 12m at 90 of the 50 yard

            y₂ = 12 m

            x₂ = 0

total displacement

          y_total = y₁ + y₂

          y_total = 5,657 + 12

          y_total = 17,657 m

          x_total = x₁ + x₂

          x_total = 5,657 + 0

          x_total = 5,657 m

          D_total =   17.657 i^+ 5.657 j^  m

          D_total = Ra (17.657 2 + 5.657 2)

          D_ total = 18.54 m

b) the average speed is requested, which is the offset carried out in the time used

           v = Δx /Δt

the distance traveled using the pythagorean theorem is

         r = √ (d1² + d2²)

          r = √ (8² + 12²)

          r = 14.42 m

The time used for this shredding is

         t = t1 + t2

         t = 1 + 1.2

         t = 2.2 s

let's calculate the average speed

         v = 14.42 / 2.2

         v = 6.55 m / s

The uniform dresser has a weight of 91 lb and rests on a tile floor for which μs = 0.25. If the man pushes on it in the horizontal direction θ = 0∘, determine the smallest magnitude of force F needed to move the dresser. Also, if the man has a weight of 151 lb , determine the smallest coefficient of static friction between his shoes and the floor so that he does not slip.

Answers

Answer:

F = 22.75 lb

μ₁ = 0.15

Explanation:

The smallest force required to move the dresser must be equal to the force of friction between the man and the dresser. Therefore,

F = μR

F = μW

where,

F = Smallest force needed to move dresser = ?

μ = coefficient of static friction = 0.25

W = Weight of dresser = 91 lb

Therefore,

F = (0.25)(91 lb)

F = 22.75 lb

Now, for the coefficient of static friction between shoes and floor, we use the same formula but with the mas of the man:

F = μ₁W₁

where,

μ₁ = coefficient of static friction between shoes and floor

W₁ = Weight of man = 151 lb

Therefore,

22.75 lb = μ₁ (151 lb)

μ₁ = 22.75 lb/151 lb

μ₁ = 0.15

Answers

Answer:

a)  DECREASE , b) Decreases , c)     DECREASE , d)  the wavelength must increase , e) increasses,

Explanation:

Young's double-slit experience is explained for constructive interference by the expression

          d sin θ = m λ

as in this case, the measured angles are very small,

          tan θ = y / L

         tan θ = sin θ / cos θ = sin θ

          sin θ= y L

        d y / L = m Lam

 we can now examine the statements given

a) if the distance to the screen decreases

        y = m λ / d L

if L decreases and decreases.

The answer is DECREASE

b) if the frequency increases

    the wave speed is

         c = λ f

         λ = c / f

we substitute

          y = (m / d l) c / f

in this case if if the frequency is increased the separation decreases

Decreases

c) If the wavelength decreases

separation decreases

   DECREASE

d) if it is desired that the separation does not change while the separation to the Panamanian decreases the wavelength must increase

      y = (m / d) lam / L

e) if the parcionero between the slits (d) decreases the separation increases

   INCREASES

f) t he gap separation decreases and the distance to the screen decreases so well.

Holding force constant, what will be the effect of increasing the Moment arm?

(a) Depends on the direction of the force.

(b) Torque will increase.

(c) Torque is constant.

(d) Torque will decrease.

(e) The direction of rotation will change.

Answers

Answer:

(b) Torque will increase.

Explanation:

Torque is given as the product of force and moment arm (radius).

τ = F x r

F = τ / r

where;

F is force

τ  is torque

r is radius (moment arm)

Keeping force constant, we will have the following;

τ ∝ r

This shows that torque is directly proportional moment arm (radius), thus increase in moment arm, will cause increase in torque.

For instance;

let the constant force = 5 N

let the initial moment arm, r = 2m

Torque, τ  = 5 N x 2m = 10 Nm

When the moment arm is increased to 4 m

Torque, τ  = 5 N x 4m = 20 Nm

Therefore, at a constant force, increasing in the Moment arm, will cause increase in torque.

Coorect option is "(b) Torque will increase."

A spring is 20cm long is stretched to 25cm by a load of 50N. What will be its length when stretched by 100N. assuming that the elastic limit is not reached

Answers

Answer:

Final Length = 30 cm

Explanation:

The relationship between the force applied on a string and its stretching length, within the elastic limit, is given by Hooke's Law:

F = kΔx

where,

F = Force applied

k = spring constant

Δx = change in length of spring

First, we find the spring constant of the spring. For this purpose, we have the following data:

F = 50 N

Δx = change in length = 25 cm  - 20 cm = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Therefore,

50 N = k(0.05 m)

k = 50 N/0.05 m

k = 1000 N/m

Now, we find the change in its length for F = 100 N:

100 N = (1000 N/m)Δx

Δx = (100 N)/(1000 N/m)

Δx = 0.1 m = 10 cm

but,

Δx = Final Length - Initial Length

10 cm = Final Length - 20 cm

Final Length = 10 cm + 20 cm

Final Length = 30 cm

A man claims that he can hold onto a 16.0-kg child in a head-on collision as long as he has his seat belt on. Consider this man in a collision in which he is in one of two identical cars each traveling toward the other at 59.0 mi/h relative to the ground. The car in which he rides is brought to rest in 0.05 s.
Find the magnitude of the average force needed to hold onto the child.
N

Answers

Answer:

F = -8440.12 N

the magnitude of the average force needed to hold onto the child is 8440.12 N

Explanation:

Given;

Mass of child m = 16 kg

Speed of each car v = 59.0 mi/h = 26.37536 m/s

Time t = 0.05s

Applying the impulse momentum equation;

Impulse = change in momentum

Ft = ∆(mv)

F = ∆(mv)/t

F = m(∆v)/t

Where;

F = force

t = time

m = mass

v = velocity

Since the final speed of the car is zero(at rest) then;

∆v = 0 - v = -26.37536 m/s

Substituting the given values;

F = 16×-26.37536/0.05

F = -8440.1152 N

F = -8440.12 N

the magnitude of the average force needed to hold onto the child is 8440.12 N

Capacitors C1 = 5.85 µF and C2 = 2.80 µF are charged as a parallel combination across a 250 V battery. The capacitors are disconnected from the battery and from each other. They are then connected positive plate to negative plate and negative plate to positive plate. Calculate the resulting charge on each capacitor.

Answers

Answer:

Q1_new = 515.68 µC

Q2_new = 246.82 µC

Explanation:

Since the capacitors are charged in parallel and not in series, then both are at 250 V when they are disconnected from the battery.

Then it is only necessary to calculate the charge on each capacitor:

Q1 = 5.85 µF * 250 V = 1462.5 µC

Q2 = 2.8 µF * 250 V = 700 µC

Now, we will look at 1462.5 µC as excess negative charges on one plate, and 1462.5 µC as excess positive charges on the other plate. Now, we will use this same logic for the smaller capacitor.

When there is a connection of positive plate of C1 to the negative plate of C2, and also a connection of the negative plate of C1 to the positive plate of C2, some of these excess opposite charges will combine and cancel each other. The result is that of a net charge:

1462.5 µC - 700 µC = 762.5 µC

Thus,762.5 µC of net charge will remain in the 'new' positive and negative plates of the resulting capacitor system.

This 762.5 µC will be divided proportionately between the two capacitors.

Q1_new = 762.5 µC * (5.85/(5.85 + 2.8)) = 515.68 µC

Q2_new = 762.5 µC * (2.8/(5.85 + 2.8) = 246.82 µC

A girl and her bicycle have a total mass of 40 kg. At the top of the hill her speed is 5.0 m/s. The hill is 10 m high and 100 m long. If the force of friction as she rides down the hill is 20 N, what is her speed at the bottom

Answers

Answer:

v =   11 m/s   is her final speed

Explanation:

work done by gravity = m g Δh =   40×9.8×10   = 3920 Joules

Work done by friction = - force×distance =   - 20×100   =   - 2000 Joules

[minus sign because friction force is opposite to the direction of motion]

Initial K.E. = (1/2) m u^2 = (1/2) × 40 × 5^2   = 500 Joules

Now, by work energy theorem

Work done = change in kinetic energy.

Final K.E. = initial K.E. + total work =    500 + 3920 - 2000  = 2420 Joules

Now, Final K.E. = (1/2) m v^2  [final speed being v= speed at the bottom]

⇒  2420 = (1/2)×40×v^2

   ⇒  121 = v^ 2

  v =   11 m/s   is her final speed

2.3mol of monatomic gas A initially has 4700J of thermal energy. It interacts with 2.6mol of monatomic gas B, which initially has 8500J of thermal energy.
Which gas has the higher initial temperature?
Gas A or B?
1-What is the final thermal energy of the gas A?
2-What is the final thermal energy of the gas B?

Answers

Answer:

Gas B has the higher initial temperature

6,199 J

7,008 J

Explanation:

Mathematically;

The thermal energy of a gas is given by:

E = 3/2 n kT

Where n is the number of moles, K is the molar gas constant and T is the temperature

For Gas A;

4700 = 1.5 * 2.3 * 8.31 * T

T = 4700/28.6695

Thus, T = 163.94 K

For gas B

8500 = 1.5 * 2.6 * 8.31 * T

T = 8500/32.409

T = 262.27 K

This means that gas B has a higher temperature than gas A.

At equilibrium, temperature

T = naTa + nbTb / (na + nb )

T = [2.3(163.94) + 2.6(262.27)]/(2.3 + 2.6)

T = [377.062 + 681.902]/4.9 = 216.12 K

216.12 K is the equilibrium temperature

= 216.12 K is the equilibrium temperature.

Thus, final thermal energy of Gas A and B

Gas A = 1.5 * 2.3 * 8.314 * 216.12= 6,199 J

Gas B = 1.5 * 2.6 * 8.314 * 216.12 = 7,008 J

The gas that possesses a higher Initial temperature would be:

- Gas B

1). The final thermal energy of gas A would be:

[tex]6,199 J[/tex]

2). The final thermal energy of gas B would be:

[tex]7,008 J[/tex]

Gas A

Given that,

Number of moles [tex]= 2.3 mol[/tex]

Initial Thermal Energy [tex]= 4700 J[/tex]

We can determine T by using

[tex]E = 3/2 n kT[/tex]

with [tex]K[/tex] being constant of molar gas,

[tex]n[/tex] [tex]= number [/tex] [tex]of [/tex] [tex]moles[/tex]

[tex]T = temperature[/tex]

so,

[tex]T = 4700/(1.5 * 2.3 * 8.31k)[/tex]

∵ [tex]T = 163.94 K[/tex]

Gas B

Given that,

Number of moles [tex]= 2.6 mol[/tex]

Initial thermal energy [tex]= 8500 J[/tex]

[tex]T = 8500/(1.5 * 2.6 * 8.31 * T)[/tex]

∵ [tex]T = 262.27 K[/tex]

Thus, gas B has a higher temperature.

To determine final thermal energy, the equilibrium temperature would be determined:

[tex]T = naTa + nbTb / (na + nb )[/tex]

[tex]T = [2.3(163.94) + 2.6(262.27)]/(2.3 + 2.6)[/tex]

∵ [tex]T = 216.12 K[/tex]

1). Final thermal energy of gas A

[tex]= 1.5 * 2.3 * 8.314 * 216.12[/tex]

[tex]= 6,199 J[/tex]

2). Final thermal energy of gas B

[tex]= 1.5 * 2.6 * 8.314 * 216.12[/tex]

[tex]= 7,008 J[/tex]

The gravitational potential energy (relative to the base of the cliff) be equal to its kinetic energy for speed of rock of 8.85 m/s.

Given data:

The height of vertical cliff is, h = 4.0 m.

Since, we are asked for speed by giving the condition for gravitational potential energy (relative to the base of the cliff) be equal to its kinetic energy. Then we can apply the conservation of energy as,

Kinetic energy = Gravitational potential energy

[tex]\dfrac{1}{2}mv^{2}=mgh[/tex]

A child of mass 46.2 kg sits on the edge of a merry-go-round with radius 1.9 m and moment of inertia 130.09 kg m2 . The merrygo-round rotates with an angular velocity of 2.4 rad/s. The child then walks towards the center of the merry-go-round and stops at a distance 0.779 m from the center. Now what is the angular velocity of the merry-go-round

Answers

Answer:

The angular velocity is [tex]w_f = 4.503 \ rad/s[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass of the child is  [tex]m_c = 46.2 \ kg[/tex]

    The radius of the merry go round is  [tex]r = 1.9 \ m[/tex]

     The moment of inertia of the merry go round is [tex]I_m = 130.09 \ kg \cdot m^2[/tex]

      The angular velocity of the merry-go round is  [tex]w = 2.4 \ rad/s[/tex]

       The position of the child from the center of the merry-go-round is  [tex]x = 0.779 \ m[/tex]

According to the law of angular momentum conservation

    The initial angular momentum  =  final  angular momentum

So  

       [tex]L_i = L_f[/tex]

=>     [tex]I_i w_i = I_fw_f[/tex]

Now   [tex]I_i[/tex] is the initial moment of inertia of the system which is mathematically represented as

          [tex]I_i = I_m + I_{b_1}[/tex]

Where  [tex]I_{b_i}[/tex] is the initial moment of inertia of the boy which is mathematically evaluated as

      [tex]I_{b_i} = m_c * r[/tex]

substituting values

      [tex]I_{b_i} = 46.2 * 1.9^2[/tex]

      [tex]I_{b_i} = 166.8 \ kg \cdot m^2[/tex]

Thus

   [tex]I_i =130.09 + 166.8[/tex]        

   [tex]I_i = 296.9 \ kg \cdot m^2[/tex]      

Thus  

     [tex]I_i * w_i =L_i= 296.9 * 2.4[/tex]

       [tex]L_i = 712.5 \ kg \cdot m^2/s[/tex]

Now  

     [tex]I_f = I_m + I_{b_f }[/tex]

Where  [tex]I_{b_f}[/tex] is the final  moment of inertia of the boy which is mathematically evaluated as

         [tex]I_{b_f} = m_c * x[/tex]

substituting values

         [tex]I_{b_f} = 46.2 * 0.779^2[/tex]

         [tex]I_{b_f} = 28.03 kg \cdot m^2[/tex]

Thus

      [tex]I_f = 130.09 + 28.03[/tex]

      [tex]I_f = 158.12 \ kg \ m^2[/tex]

Thus

     [tex]L_f = 158.12 * w_f[/tex]

Hence

      [tex]712.5 = 158.12 * w_f[/tex]

       [tex]w_f = 4.503 \ rad/s[/tex]

12.99 Hz

Explanation:

Resonance is said to occur in an RLC circuit when maximum current is obtained from the circuit. Hence at resonance; XL=XC and Z=R.

XL= inductive reactance, XC= capacitive reactance, Z= impedance, R= resistance

The resonance frequency is given by;

fo= 1/2π√LC

L= 3×10^-3 H

C= 0.05 F

π= 3.142

Substituting values;

fo= 1/2×3.142√3×10^-3 × 0.05

fo= 12.99 Hz

Therefore the resonance frequency of the RLC circuit is 12.99 Hz

Explain whether or not there is any difference between a light ray emitted by a candle flame and one reflected off the cover of a book. b. Determine whether the reflection off the cover of a book is specular or diffuse and explain your answer.

Answers

Answer:

the difference between the two is that the candle forms an emission spectrum and the book an absorption spectrum.

the book it is observed in all directions so that its reflection has to be diffused

Explanation:

The ray of light emitted by a candle is the light generated by the temperature of the flame, which is made up of the emissions of a black body at this temperature plus the emissions of the chemical elements that make up the candle.

The Light reflected from the cover of a book is the same incident light spectrum minus the wavelengths that create transitions in the elements of the cover, these wavelengths will be seen as dark areas.

As a consequence of the above, the difference between the two is that the candle forms an emission spectrum and the book an absorption spectrum.

For the cover of the book form a specular reflection the incident rays are reflected in one direction and the rest would be dark, but in the book it is observed in all directions so that its reflection has to be diffused

Answer:

There is no difference between a light ray emitted by a candle flame and one reflected off the cover of a book. The candle flame is a source of light rays, but those rays could travel to the book cover and reflect off the book cover diffusely so that the same ray is actually emitted by the candle flame and reflected by the book. The reflection off the book is diffuse reflection because the book is visible from any angle.

Explanation:

A 110.0 kg car traveling initially with a speed of 25.000 m/s in an easterly direction crashes into the back of a 8900.0 kg truck moving in the same direction at 20.000 m/s. The velocity of the car right after the collision is 18.000 m/s to the east.

Required:
a. What is the velocity of the truck right after the collision?
b. What is the change in mechanical energy of the car?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of momentum which states that the sum of momentum of the bodies before collision is equal to the sum of momentum of bodies after collision.

Momentum = Mass*velocity

BEFORE COLLISION

The momentum of a 110.0 kg car traveling initially with a speed of 25.000 m/s in an easterly direction = 110*25 = 2750kgm/s

The momentum of a 8900.0 kg truck with a speed of 20.000 m/s in an easterly direction = 8900*20 = 178000kgm/s

Sum of momentum before collision = 2750 + 178000 = 180,750 kgm/s

AFTER COLLISION

The momentum of the car will be 110*18 = 1980kgm/s

The momentum of the truck = 8900v where v is the velocity of the truck after collision.

Sum of momentum after collision = 1980 + 8900v

Applying the conservation law;

180750 = 1980 + 8900v

8900v = 180750-1980

8900v = 178770

v = 178770/8900

v = 20.09m/s

Velocity of the truck after collision is 20.09m/s

Note that the collision is inelastic i.e the body moves with different velocities after collision

b) The mechanical energy experienced by the bodies is kinetic energy.

Kinetic energy = 1/2mv²

Sum of the Kinetic energy before collision = 1/2(110)*25²+1/2(8900)*20²

= 34375 + 1780000

= 1,814,375Joules

Sum of kinetic energy after collision = 1/2*(110)*18²+1/2(8900)*20.09²

= 17820+1796056.045

= 1,813,876.045Joules

Change in mechanical energy =  1,813,876.045Joules - 1,814,375Joules

= -498.955Joules

Ocean waves of wavelength 30m are moving directly toward a concrete barrier wall at 4.8m/s . The waves reflect from the wall, and the incoming and reflected waves overlap to make a lovely standing wave with an antinode at the wall. (Such waves are a common occurrence in certain places.)

A 50-kg block is pushed a distance of 5.0 m across a floor by a horizontal force Fp whose magnitude is 150 N. Fp is parallel to the displacement of the block. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.25.
a) What is the total work done on the block?
b) If the box started from rest, what is the final speed of the block?

Answers

Answer:

a) WT = 137.5 J

b) v2 = 2.34 m/s

Explanation:

a) The total work done on the block is given by the following formula:

[tex]W_T=F_pd-F_fd=(F_p-F_f)d[/tex]          (1)

Fp: force parallel to the displacement of the block = 150N

Ff: friction force

d: distance = 5.0 m

Then, you first calculate the friction force by using the following relation:

[tex]F_f=\mu_k N=\mu_k Mg[/tex]        (2)

μk: coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.25

M: mass of the block = 50kg

g: gravitational constant = 9.8 m/s^2

Next, you replace the equation (2) into the equation (1) and solve for WT:

[tex]W_T=(F_p-\mu_kMg)d=(150N-(0.25)(50kg)(9.8m/s^2))(5.0m)\\\\W_T=137.5J[/tex]

The work done over the block is 137.5 J

b) If the block started from rest, you can use the following equation to calculate the final speed of the block:

[tex]W_T=\Delta K=\frac{1}{2}M(v_2^2-v_1^2)[/tex]     (3)

WT: total work = 137.5 J

v2: final speed = ?

v1: initial speed of the block = 0m/s

You solve the equation (3) for v2:

[tex]v_2=\sqrt{\frac{2W_T}{M}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(137.5J)}{50kg}}=2.34\frac{m}{s}[/tex]

The final speed of the block is 2.34 m/s

One uniform ladder of mass 30 kg and 10 m long rests against a frictionless vertical wall and makes an angle of 60o with the floor. A man weighing 700 N could climb up to 7.0 m before slipping. What is the coefficient of static friction between the floor and the ladder

Answers

Answer:

   μ = 0.37

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use the translational and rotational equilibrium equations.

We set our reference system at the highest point of the ladder where it touches the vertical wall. We assume that counterclockwise rotation is positive

let's write the rotational equilibrium

           W₁  x/2 + W₂ x₂ - fr y = 0

where W₁ is the weight of the mass ladder m₁ = 30kg, W₂ is the weight of the man 700 N, let's use trigonometry to find the distances

             cos 60 = x / L

where L is the length of the ladder

              x = L cos 60

            sin 60 = y / L

           y = L sin60

the horizontal distance of man is

            cos 60 = x2 / 7.0

            x2 = 7 cos 60

we substitute

         m₁ g L cos 60/2 + W₂ 7 cos 60 - fr L sin60 = 0

         fr = (m1 g L cos 60/2 + W2 7 cos 60) / L sin 60

let's calculate

         fr = (30 9.8 10 cos 60 2 + 700 7 cos 60) / (10 sin 60)

         fr = (735 + 2450) / 8.66

         fr = 367.78 N

the friction force has the expression

         fr = μ N

write the translational equilibrium equation

         N - W₁ -W₂ = 0

         N = m₁ g + W₂

         N = 30 9.8 + 700

         N = 994 N

we clear the friction force from the eucacion

        μ = fr / N

        μ = 367.78 / 994

        μ = 0.37

The magnitude of the gravitational field strength near Earth's surface is represented by

Answers

Answer:

The magnitude of the gravitational field strength near Earth's surface is represented by approximately [tex]9.82\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex].

Explanation:

Let be M and m the masses of the planet and a person standing on the surface of the planet, so that M >> m. The attraction force between the planet and the person is represented by the Newton's Law of Gravitation:

[tex]F = G\cdot \frac{M\cdot m}{r^{2}}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]M[/tex] - Mass of the planet Earth, measured in kilograms.

[tex]m[/tex] - Mass of the person, measured in kilograms.

[tex]r[/tex] - Radius of the Earth, measured in meters.

[tex]G[/tex] - Gravitational constant, measured in [tex]\frac{m^{3}}{kg\cdot s^{2}}[/tex].

But also, the magnitude of the gravitational field is given by the definition of weight, that is:

[tex]F = m \cdot g[/tex]

Where:

[tex]m[/tex] - Mass of the person, measured in kilograms.

[tex]g[/tex] - Gravity constant, measured in meters per square second.

After comparing this expression with the first one, the following equivalence is found:

[tex]g = \frac{G\cdot M}{r^{2}}[/tex]

Given that [tex]G = 6.674\times 10^{-11}\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg\cdot s^{2}}[/tex], [tex]M = 5.972 \times 10^{24}\,kg[/tex] and [tex]r = 6.371 \times 10^{6}\,m[/tex], the magnitude of the gravitational field near Earth's surface is:

[tex]g = \frac{\left(6.674\times 10^{-11}\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg\cdot s^{2}} \right)\cdot (5.972\times 10^{24}\,kg)}{(6.371\times 10^{6}\,m)^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]g \approx 9.82\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex]

The magnitude of the gravitational field strength near Earth's surface is represented by approximately [tex]9.82\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex].

A ball is thrown straight upward and falls back to Earth. Suppose a y-coordinate axis points upward, and the release point is the origin. Instantaneously at the top its flight, which of these quantities are zero

a. Displacment
b. Speed
c. Velocity
d. Accerlation

Answers

Explanation:

A ball is thrown straight upward and falls back to Earth. It means that it is coming to the initial position. Displacement is given by the difference of final position and initial position. The displacement of the ball will be 0. As a result velocity will be 0.

Acceleration is equal to the rate of change of velocity. So, its acceleration is also equal to 0.

Hence, displacement, velocity and acceleration are zero.

An ideal, or Carnot, heat pump is used to heat a house to a temperature of 294 K (21 oC). How much work must the pump do to deliver 3000 J of heat into the house (a) on a day when the outdoor temperature is 273 K (0 oC) and (b) on another day when the outdoor temperature is 252 K (-21 oC)

Answers

Answer:

a) [tex]W_{in} = 214.286\,J[/tex], b) [tex]W_{in} = 428.571\,J[/tex]

Explanation:

a) The performance of a Carnot heat pump is determined by the Coefficient of Performance, which is equal to the following ratio:

[tex]COP_{HP} = \frac{T_{H}}{T_{H}-T_{L}}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]T_{L}[/tex] - Temperature of surroundings, measured in Kelvin.

[tex]T_{H}[/tex] - Temperature of the house, measured in Kelvin.

Given that [tex]T_{H} = 294\,K[/tex] and [tex]T_{L} = 273\,K[/tex]. The Coefficient of Performance is:

[tex]COP_{HP} = \frac{294\,K}{294\,K-273\,K}[/tex]

[tex]COP_{HP} = 14[/tex]

Besides, the performance of real heat pumps are determined by the following form of the Coefficient of Performance, that is, the ratio of heat received by the house to input work.

[tex]COP_{HP} = \frac{Q_{H}}{W_{in}}[/tex]

The input work to deliver a determined amount of heat to the house:

[tex]W_{in} = \frac{Q_{H}}{COP_{HP}}[/tex]

If [tex]Q_{H} = 3000\,J[/tex] and [tex]COP_{HP} = 14[/tex], the input work that is needed is:

[tex]W_{in} = \frac{3000\,J}{14}[/tex]

[tex]W_{in} = 214.286\,J[/tex]

b) The performance of a Carnot heat pump is determined by the Coefficient of Performance, which is equal to the following ratio:

[tex]COP_{HP} = \frac{T_{H}}{T_{H}-T_{L}}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]T_{L}[/tex] - Temperature of surroundings, measured in Kelvin.

[tex]T_{H}[/tex] - Temperature of the house, measured in Kelvin.

Given that [tex]T_{H} = 294\,K[/tex] and [tex]T_{L} = 252\,K[/tex]. The Coefficient of Performance is:

[tex]COP_{HP} = \frac{294\,K}{294\,K-252\,K}[/tex]

[tex]COP_{HP} = 7[/tex]

Besides, the performance of real heat pumps are determined by the following form of the Coefficient of Performance, that is, the ratio of heat received by the house to input work.

[tex]COP_{HP} = \frac{Q_{H}}{W_{in}}[/tex]

The input work to deliver a determined amount of heat to the house:

[tex]W_{in} = \frac{Q_{H}}{COP_{HP}}[/tex]

If [tex]Q_{H} = 3000\,J[/tex] and [tex]COP_{HP} = 7[/tex], the input work that is needed is:

[tex]W_{in} = \frac{3000\,J}{7}[/tex]

[tex]W_{in} = 428.571\,J[/tex]
