6. A warehouse employee is pushing a 15.0 kg desk across a floor at a constant speed of 0.50 m/s. How much work must the employee do on the desk to change the speed to 1.00 m/s?
Answer:
7.5 J
Explanation:
To answer the question given above, we need to determine the energy that will bring about the speed of 1 m/s. This can be obtained as follow:
Mass (m) = 15 Kg
Velocity (v) = 1 m/s
Energy (E) =?
E = ½mv²
E = ½ × 15 × 1²
E = ½ × 15 × 1
E = ½ × 15
E = 7.5 J
Therefore, to change the speed to 1 m/s, the employee must do a work of 7.5 J.

A car takes a full round of journey in a roundabout with constant speed, as the driver got confused with the route. Can we consider it as a uniform motion? Why?
Answer: The given statement is True
Explanation:
A uniform motion is defined as the motion where an object is moving at a constant speed.
A non-uniform motion is defined as the motion where an object keeps changing its position and does not move at a constant speed.
We are given:
A car takes a full round of journey in a roundabout with constant speed
As the speed remains constant in a circular path, it is considered a uniform motion.
Hence, the given statement is True

Find the emitted power per square meter and wavelength of peak intensity for a 3000 K object that emits thermal radiation.
Answer:
power per square meter = 4.593 × 10^(6) W/m²
Wavelength of peak intensity = 9.67 × 10^(-7) m
Explanation:
From Stefan-Boltzmann law, total emitted power per square meter is given as;
P/A = eσT⁴
where;
P is power
A is surface area
σ = Stefan-Boltzmann constant = 5.67 × 10^(-8) W/m².k⁴
T = temperature of the body = 3000 K
e = emissivity of the substance (for ideal radiation, it has a value = 1)
Thus, Plugging in the relevant values we have;
P/A = 1 × 5.67 × 10^(-8) × (3000)^(4)
P/A = 4.593 × 10^(6) W/m²
Let's find the wavelength of peak intensity.
From wiens displacement law, we know that;
λ_m × T = b
where;
λ_m = maximum wavelength
T = Temperature
b is Wien's displacement constant = 2.9 × 10^(−3) m/K
thus;
λ_m = b/T = (2.9 × 10^(−3))/3000 = 9.67 × 10^(-7) m

Neha and Reha are playing see-saw.Neha is sitting 60cm away from the fulcrum and Reha is sitting 40cm away from the fulcrum.Calculate the effort that Reha should apply to lift Neha.The weight of Neha is 360N.
Answer:
Effort = 540 Newton
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Load arm = 60 cm
Effort arm = 40 cm
Load = 360 N
Conversion:
100 cm = 1 meters
40 cm = 40/100 = 0.4 meters
60 cm = 60/100 = 0.6 meters
To calculate the effort that Reha should apply to lift Neha, we would use the expression;
Effort * effort arm = load * load arm
Substituting into the expression, we have;
Effort * 0.4 = 360 * 0.6
Effort * 0.4 = 216
Effort = 216/0.4
Effort = 540 Newton
A bicyclist rides 2.93 km due east, while the resistive force from the air has a magnitude of 8.65 N and points due west. The rider then turns around and rides 2.93 km due west, back to her starting point. The resistive force from the air on the return trip has a magnitude of 8.65 N and points due east. Find the work done by the resistive force during the round trip. Number Type your answer here Units Choose your answer here
Answer:
-50.6 kJ
Explanation:
The work done (W) on an object is given by:
W = (Fcosθ) * S
where F is the force, S is the displacement and θ is the angle between the force and displacement.
i) During the first trip riding east, S₁ = 2.93 km = 2930 m, F₁ = 8.65 N.
The displacement is due east and the force is due west, hence θ₁ = 180°. Therefore:
W₁ = (F₁ * cosθ₁)S₁ = (8,65 * cos(180))2930 = -25.3 kJ
ii) i) During the second trip riding west, S₂ = 2.93 km = 2930 m, F₂ = 8.65 N.
The displacement is due west and the force is due east, hence θ₂ = 180°. Therefore:
W₂ = (F₂ * cosθ₂)S₂ = (8,65 * cos(180))2930 = -25.3 kJ
work done by the resistive force during the round trip is:
W = W₁ + W₂ = -25.3 kJ + (-25.3 kJ) = -50.6 kJ

Three voltmeters V, V₁ and V₂ are connected as in
Figure 37.9. a If V reads 18V and V, reads 12V, what does V₂ read?
b If the ammeter A reads 0.5A, how much electrical energy is changed to heat and light in lamp L₁ in one minute? c Copy Figure 37.9 and mark with a + the positive terminals of the ammeter and voltmeters for correct
connection.
Answer:
a. V₂ = 6 V
b. 360 joules
c. The positive terminals of both the voltmeter and ammeter are connected to the positive terminal of the power source
Please see the attached drawing created with MS Visio
Explanation:
a. The voltmeter readings are;
V₁ = 12 V, V = 18 V
Given that the voltage reading, 'V', is the voltage reading across two loads with voltages, V₁ and V₂ connected in series, we have;
V = V₁ + V₂
V₂ = V - V₁
V₂ = 18 V - 12 V = 6 V
b. The reading of the ammeter, A, I = 0.5 A
The heat energy, Q = I·V·t
Where;
t = The time = 1 minute (60 seconds)
Therefore, for the lamp L₁, where V = 12 V, we have;
Q₁ = 0.5 A × 12 V × 60 s = 360 Joules
The amount of electrical energy changed into heat and light in lamp L₁, Q₁ = 360 joules
c. The positive terminals of the voltmeter and ammeter are connected to the positive terminal of the power source
Please see attached drawing created with MS Visio

Explanation:
Em um fio condutor uma carga de 6.000 C atravessa uma secção transversal em 5 minutos. Determinando-se a corrente no fio, encontraremos o valor de?
Answer:
I = 20 A
Explanation:
The question says that, "A load of 6,000 C is conducted through a cross section in 5 minutes. Determining-if a current is not correct, we will find the value of?"
We have,
Charge, q = 6,000 C
Time, t = 5 minutes = 300 s
We need to find the current. We know that, the charge flowing per unit time is equal to current. So,
[tex]I=\dfrac{q}{t}\\\\I=\dfrac{6000}{300}\\\\I=20\ A[/tex]
So, the current flowing through the circuit is 20 A.
Explain: What happens to the velocity of a stream as the size of the sediment increases?
Answer:
Also, as stream depth increases, the hydraulic radius increases thereby making the stream more free flowing. Both of these factors lead to an increase in stream velocity. The increased velocity and the increased cross-sectional area mean that discharge increases.
A HIGH SPEED TRAIN IS 180M LONG AND IT IS TRAVELLING AT 50M/S.HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO PASS A PERSON STANDING AT A LEVEL CROSSING?
B-HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO PASS COMPLETELY THROUGH A STATION WHOSE PLATFORMS ARE 220M IN LENGTH?
Answer:
a. Time = 3.6 seconds
b. Time = 4.4 seconds
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Distance = 180 m
Speed = 50 m/s
a. To find the time;
Speed can be defined as distance covered per unit time. Speed is a scalar quantity and as such it has magnitude but no direction.
Mathematically, speed is given by the formula;
[tex]Speed = \frac{distance}{time}[/tex]
Making time the subject of formula, we have;
[tex]Time = \frac{distance}{speed}[/tex]
Substituting into the equation, we have;
[tex]Time = \frac{180}{50}[/tex]
Time = 3.6 seconds
b. Distance = 220 meters
Speed = 50 m/s
To find the time;
[tex]Time = \frac{distance}{speed}[/tex]
Substituting into the equation, we have;
[tex]Time = \frac{220}{50}[/tex]
Time = 4.4 seconds
In what way is Height related to Potential Energy?
Explanation:
Lets say you have a ball in your hand, you raise your hand to just above your head. Now, when you did that you created potential energy that is ready to be released. you drop the ball and the ball bounces a few times off the ground. Now lets say you got a ladder and doubled the ball's height doubling the energy now stored in the ball, when you drop it the ball should bounce much higher after hitting the ground as a result of more energy being released.
Hope this helped.

A bullet of mass 0.5 kg is moving horizontally with a speed of 50 m/s when it hits a block
of mass 3 kg that is at rest on a horizontal surface with a coefficient of friction of 0.2.
After the collision the bullet becomes embedded in the block.
A) What is the net momentum of the bullet-block system before the collision?
B) Find the total energy of the bullet-block system before the collision?
C) What is the speed of the bullet-block system after the collision?
D) *Find the total energy of the bullet-block system after the collision?
E) *How much work must be done to stop the bullet-block system?
F) *Find the maximum traveled distance of the bullet-block after the collision?
Answer:
a) The net momentum of the bullet-block system before the collision is 25 kilogram-meters per second.
b) The initial translational kinetic energy of the bullet before the collision is 625 joules.
c) The final speed of the bullet-block system after the collision is 7.143 meters per second.
d) The total energy of the bullet-block system after the collision is 89.289 joules.
e) 89.289 joules must be done to stop the bullet-block system.
f) The bullet-block system will travel 13.007 meters before stopping.
Explanation:
a) Since no external forces are applied on the system defined by the bullet and the block, then the net momentum is conserved and can be calculated by the initial momentum of the bullet:
[tex]p = m\cdot v_{o}[/tex] (1)
Where:
[tex]p[/tex] - Net momentum, in kilogram-meters per second.
[tex]m[/tex] - Mass of the bullet, in kilograms.
[tex]v_{o}[/tex] - Initial speed of the bullet, in meters per second.
If we know that [tex]m = 0.5\,kg[/tex] and [tex]v_{o} = 50\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], then the net momentum of the bullet-block system before the collision is:
[tex]p = (0.5\,kg)\cdot \left(50\,\frac{m}{s} \right)[/tex]
[tex]p = 25\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}[/tex]
The net momentum of the bullet-block system before the collision is 25 kilogram-meters per second.
b) The total energy of the bullet before the collision is its initial translational kinetic energy ([tex]K[/tex]), in joules:
[tex]K = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v_{o}^{2}[/tex] (2)
[tex]K = \frac{1}{2}\cdot (0.5\,kg)\cdot \left(50\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}[/tex]
[tex]K = 625\,J[/tex]
The initial translational kinetic energy of the bullet before the collision is 625 joules.
c) Both the bullet and the block experiments a complete inelastic collision, then the final speed of the bullet-block system is calculated solely by the Principle of Momentum Conservation:
[tex]v_{f} = \frac{m\cdot v_{o}}{m+M}[/tex] (3)
Where:
[tex]v_{f}[/tex] - Final speed, in meters per second.
[tex]M[/tex] - Mass of the block, in kilograms.
If we know that [tex]m = 0.5\,kg[/tex], [tex]v_{o} = 50\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex] and [tex]M = 3\,kg[/tex], then the final speed of the bullet-block system is:
[tex]v_{f} = \left(\frac{0.5\,kg}{0.5\,kg + 3\,kg} \right)\cdot \left(50\,\frac{m}{s} \right)[/tex]
[tex]v_{f} = 7.143\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex]
The final speed of the bullet-block system after the collision is 7.143 meters per second.
d) The total energy of the bullet-block system after the collision is the translational kinetic energy of the system ([tex]K[/tex]), in joules, is:
[tex]K = \frac{1}{2}\cdot (m + M)\cdot v_{f}^{2}[/tex] (4)
[tex]K = \frac{1}{2}\cdot (0.5\,kg + 3\,kg)\cdot \left(7.143\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}[/tex]
[tex]K = 89.289\,J[/tex]
The total energy of the bullet-block system after the collision is 89.289 joules.
e) By Work-Energy Theorem, magnitude of the work done by friction must be equal to the magnitude of the translational kinetic energy of the system. Hence, 89.289 joules must be done to stop the bullet-block system.
f) The maximum travelled distance of the bullet-block after the collision can be determined by means of Work-Energy Theorem and definition of work:
[tex]W = \mu_{k}\cdot (m+M)\cdot g\cdot s[/tex] (5)
Where:
[tex]W[/tex] - Work done by friction, in joules.
[tex]g[/tex] - Gravitational acceleration, in meters per square second.
[tex]s[/tex] - Travelled distance, in meters.
[tex]\mu_{k}[/tex] - Kinetic coefficient of friction, no unit.
If we know that [tex]m = 0.5\,kg[/tex], [tex]M = 3\,kg[/tex], [tex]\mu_{k} = 0.2[/tex], [tex]g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex] and [tex]W = 89.289\,J[/tex], then the travelled distance of the bullet-block system is:
[tex]s = \frac{W}{\mu_{k}\cdot (m+M)\cdot g}[/tex]
[tex]s = \frac{89.289\,J}{0.2\cdot (0.5\,kg + 3\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)}[/tex]
[tex]s = 13.007\,m[/tex]
The bullet-block system will travel 13.007 meters before stopping.
A 500-kg crate sits on a 10-degree ramp. If friction between the ramp and the crate is 800 N, what is the acceleration of the crate?
By Newton's second law, the net force acting on the crate parallel to the surface is
∑ F = mg sin(10°) - 800 N = ma
where m = 500 kg is the mass of the crate and a is the acceleration.
Solve for a :
a = ((500 kg) (9.80 m/s^2) sin(10°) - 800 N) / (500 kg)
a ≈ 0.102 m/s^2
