A cylinder of mass 14.0 kg rolls without slipping on a horizontal surface. At a certain instant its center of mass has a speed o

aev [14]

Answer:

a) 567J

b) 283.5J

c)850.5J

Explanation:

The expression for the translational kinetic energy is,

$E_r = \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

Substitute,

14kg for m

9m/s for v

$E_r = \frac{1}{2} (14) (9)^2\\= 567J$

The translational kinetic energy of the center of mass is 567J

(B)

The expression for the rotational kinetic energy is,

$E_R = \frac{1}{2} Iw^2$

The expression for the moment of inertia of the cylinder is,

$I = \frac{1}{2} mr^2$

The expression for angular velocity is,

$w = \frac{v}{r}$

substitute

1/2mr² for I

and vr for w

in equation for rotational kinetic energy as follows:

$E_R = (\frac{1}{2}) (\frac{1}{2} mr^2)(\frac{v}{r} )^2$

$= \frac{mv^2}{4}$

$E_R = \frac{14 \times 9^2 }{4} \\\\= 283.5J$

The rotational kinetic energy of the center of mass is 283.5J

(c)

The expression for the total energy is,

$E = E_r + E_R\\\\$

substitute 567J for E(r) and 283.5J for E(R)

$E = 567J + 283.5\\= 850.5J$

The total energy of the cylinder is 850.5J

In a certain time interval, natural gas with energy content of 19000 J was piped into a house during a winter day. In the same t

Bumek [7]

Explanation:

Since, it is mentioned the there occurs no change in the temperature. This also means that there will occur no change in thermal energy of the system.

Hence, $\Delta E$ = 0. And, as $\Delta E$ = 0 then there will be no work involved. This means that total energy added to the house will return to the outside air as heat.

Therefore,

Q = -(19000 J + 2000 J)

= -21000 J

or, |Q| = 21000 J

Thus, we can conclude that the magnitude of the energy transfer between the house and the outside air is 21000 J.

How much force is required to move a tractor 60m, when using 250J of work?

lianna [129]

Answer:

Work done,W= 250J

Displacement , s = 60

We know that, Work done = Force x displacement

i.e , W = Fxs

250 J = F x 60m

F = 250/60

=4.16 N

Hence , 4.16 N of Force is applied on the body.
