Answer:

In this section, we elaborate and extend the result we derived in Potential Energy of a System, where we re-wrote the work-energy theorem in terms of the change in the kinetic and potential energies of a particle. This will lead us to a discussion of the important principle of the conservation of mechanical energy. As you continue to examine other topics in physics, in later chapters of this book, you will see how this conservation law is generalized to encompass other types of energy and energy transfers. The last section of this chapter provides a preview.

The terms ‘conserved quantity’ and ‘conservation law’ have specific, scientific meanings in physics, which are different from the everyday meanings associated with the use of these words. (The same comment is also true about the scientific and everyday uses of the word ‘work.’) In everyday usage, you could conserve water by not using it, or by using less of it, or by re-using it. Water is composed of molecules consisting of two atoms of hydrogen and one of oxygen. Bring these atoms together to form a molecule and you create water; dissociate the atoms in such a molecule and you destroy water. However, in scientific usage, a conserved quantity for a system stays constant, changes by a definite amount that is transferred to other systems, and/or is converted into other forms of that quantity. A conserved quantity, in the scientific sense, can be transformed, but not strictly created or destroyed. Thus, there is no physical law of conservation of water.

Systems with a Single Particle or Object

We first consider a system with a single particle or object. Returning to our development of (Figure), recall that we first separated all the forces acting on a particle into conservative and non-conservative types, and wrote the work done by each type of force as a separate term in the work-energy theorem. We then replaced the work done by the conservative forces by the change in the potential energy of the particle, combining it with the change in the particle’s kinetic energy to get (Figure). Now, we write this equation without the middle step and define the sum of the kinetic and potential energies, K+U=E; to be the mechanical energy of the particle

A skydiver jumps from a stationary helicopter and reaches a steady vertical speed. She then opens her parachute. Which statement about the falling skydiver is correct?

A As her parachute opens, her acceleration is upwards.
B As she falls at a steady speed with her parachute open, her weight is zero.
C When she accelerates, the resultant force on her is zero.
alda
D When she falls at a steady speed, air resistance is zero.

Answers

Answer:

A) As her parachute opens, her acceleration is upwards.

Explanation:

The acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity.

Thus, if you have positive velocity and positive acceleration, your velocity increases

If you have positive velocity and negative acceleration, then your velocity decreases.

(The opposite happens when you have negative velocity).

Now, when the skydiver is falling, her velocity is downwards.

When she opens her parachute, her velocity downwards decreases.

This means that when she opens her parachute, she will have an acceleration in the opposite direction to her velocity, then at this point her acceleration is upwards.

We can conclude that the correct option is:

A) As her parachute opens, her acceleration is upwards.

How much gravitational energy does a 65 kg skydiver have 650 m up in the sky?

Answers

Answer:

G.P.E  = 414050 Joules or 414.05 Kilojoules

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 65 kg

Height = 650 m

We know that acceleration due to gravity is equal to 9.8m/s²

To find the gravitational potential energy;

Gravitational potential energy (GPE) is an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position above the earth.

Mathematically, gravitational potential energy is given by the formula;

[tex] G.P.E = mgh[/tex]

Where;

G.P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.m represents the mass of an object. g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square. h represents the height measured in meters.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex] G.P.E = 65 * 9.8 * 650 [/tex]

[tex] G.P.E = 414050 [/tex]

G.P.E  = 414050 Joules or 414.05 Kilojoules.

Question 4
The diagram represents the motion of a sound wave. The distance between points A and C is 9 meters (m), and it initially takes the wave 3 seconds (s) to travel.
What will be the wavelength of the sound wave if the velocity of the wave remains constant but the pitch is tripled?

A 3 meters
B 6 meters
с 9 meters
D 18 meters

Answers

Answer:A

Explanation:

The wavelength of the sound wave will be 3 meters.

What is wavelength?

The wavelength of any wave is defined as the distance between two max adjacent amplitudes, or the distance between two successive troughs or crest.

Now it is given that:

Distance =9 meters

time = 3 seconds

pitch=1/3 seconds

The velocity of  the sound will be

[tex]V=\dfrac{d}{t}=\dfrac{9}{3}=3\ \frac{m}{s}[/tex]

Now from the question the wavelength of the sound wave if the velocity of the wave remains constant but the pitch is tripled

so  [tex]f=3\times \dfrac{1}{3}=1 herts[/tex]

Now the velocity of the sound will be

[tex]v=f\times \lambda[/tex]

[tex]\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}=\dfrac{3}{1}=3\ m[/tex]

Thus the wavelength of the sound wave will be 3 meters.

Explanation:

You did not attach a picture however, this should be the correct answer.

Mid-oceanic ridge plate  boundaries such as the Mid-Atlantic Ridge form as a result of plate separating at the boundary. This leads to earthquakes due to the forces of tension acting on the plates.

When this happens, the mantle is exposed and therefore there will be volcanic eruptions as the lava comes to the surface as magma. When this magma cools it creates new seafloors and underwater mountains.

A train was moving at 50m/s and slow down to 20 m/s in 50 seconds, what was its acceleration?

Answers

Answer:

-0.6 m/s^2

Explanation:

a = change in velocity / time

change in velocity = 50 m/s - 20 m/s = 30 m/s

time = 50 s

30 m/s / 50s

= 0.6 m/s^2

because it is decelarating, it will be -0.6 m/s^2

Para fabricar la bicicleta de un niño pequeño se tiene en cuenta que la fuerza que puede desarrollar es menor que la de un adulto y que no sabe cambiar de desarrollo. Por ello, se fabrica con un solo plato y un solo piñón de desarrollo muy pequeño. El plato es de 28 dientes y el radio de la rueda mide 20 cm. Si queremos que el desarrollo sea de 1,4 calcula: - El número de dientes que debe tener el piñón de la bicicleta. - Cuántos metros avanza la bicicleta por cada pedalada completa.

Answers

Answer:

a) El piñón debe tener 20 dientes.

b) La bicicleta avanza aproximadamente 1,759 metros por cada pedaleada completa.

Explanation:

a) El plato es el engranaje más grande que forma parte del sistema de transmisión, acompañando a la cadena y el piñón integrado a la rueda trasera. Asumiendo que no existen pérdidas por fricción seca y que las condiciones de lubricación del sistema de transmisión son óptimas tal que las pérdidas de potencia son despreciables. Además, supongamos que la bicicleta viaja a velocidad constante, entonces tenemos la siguiente identidad mediante las definiciones de trabajo y potencia:

[tex]T_{P}\cdot \omega_{P} = T_{p}\cdot \omega_{p}[/tex] (1)

Donde:

[tex]T_{P}[/tex] - Torque del plato, en newton-metros.

[tex]T_{p}[/tex] - Torque del piñón, en newton-metros.

[tex]\omega_{p}[/tex] - Rapidez angular del piñón, en radianes por segundo.

[tex]\omega_{P}[/tex] - Rapidez angular del plato, en radianes por segundo.

Sabiendo el hecho que tanto el plato y el piñón experimenta la misma velocidad tangencial, podemos simplificar (1) como sigue:

[tex]\frac{T_{P}}{R_{P}} = \frac{T_{p}}{R_{p}}[/tex] (1b)

Puesto que el radio de cada elemento y el número de dientes son, por separado, directamente proporcionales al número de dientes, modificamos (1b) así y tenemos la siguiente identidad, la cual equivale a su vez a la razón de desarrollo:

[tex]\frac{T_{P}}{T_{p}} = \frac{N_{P}}{N_{p}} = \frac{R_{P}}{R_{p}} = \frac{\omega_{p}}{\omega_{P}}[/tex] (1c)

Donde:

[tex]N_{p}[/tex] - Número de dientes del piñón, sin unidad.

[tex]N_{P}[/tex] - Número de dientes del plato, sin unidad.

Si tenemos que [tex]r = 1,4[/tex] y [tex]N_{P} = 28[/tex], entonces tenemos que el número de dientes del piñón es:

[tex]r = \frac{N_{P}}{N_{p}}[/tex]

[tex]N_{p} = \frac{N_{P}}{r}[/tex]

[tex]N_{p} = \frac{28}{1,4}[/tex]

[tex]N_{p} = 20[/tex]

El piñón debe tener 20 dientes.

b) De acuerdo con la relación de desarrollo, por cada revolución realizada por el plato, el piñón realiza 1,4 revoluciones. Entonces, el avance realizado por la rueda trasera ([tex]s[/tex]), en metros, es igual al productor de la relación de desarrollo y la circunferencia de la rueda, es decir:

[tex]s = r\cdot 2\pi\cdot R[/tex] (1)

Donde [tex]R[/tex] es el radio de la rueda trasera, en metros.

Si conocemos que [tex]r = 1,4[/tex] y [tex]R = 0,2\,m[/tex], entonces el avance realizado por la rueda trasera es:

[tex]s = r\cdot 2\pi\cdot R[/tex]

[tex]s = (1,4)\cdot (2\pi)\cdot (0,2\,m)[/tex]

[tex]s \approx 1,759 \,m[/tex]

La bicicleta avanza aproximadamente 1,759 metros por cada pedaleada completa.
