Answer:

(1/2)*2500*(25^2) - (1/2)*2500*(20^2) = 281250 J, which is also equivalent to 2.8 x 10^5 Joules.

The work done can be calculated using the equation:

Work = Force x Distance = Change in kinetic energy

The kinetic energy is derived using the following formula: KE = (1/2)*m*v^2
Thus, the change in kinetic energy is calculated as (1/2)*m*(Vf)^2 - (1/2)*m*(Vo)^2

Where:

Vf represents the final speed = 90 kph = 25 m/s
Vo denotes the initial speed = 72 kph = 20 m/s

By substituting in the given values:

Work = (1/2)*2500*(25^2) - (1/2)*2500*(20^2) = 281250 J, which can also be represented as 2.8 x 10^5 Joules.

The correct choice among the options is A.

The δe of a system that releases 12.4 j of heat and does 4.2 j of work on the surroundings is __________ j.
Yuliya22 [2420]

For this issue, the answer is clarified as the system takes in energy (+). The surroundings contribute 84 KJ of work. Whenever a system is receiving work from its surroundings, the value will be positive. Therefore, it sums to 12.4 KJ + 4.2 = 16.6 KJ.

A soft drink (mostly water) flows in a pipe at a beverage plant with a mass flow rate that would fill 220 cans, 0.355 - l each,
Keith_Richards [2256]
Flow rate calculations yield 220 cans, each with a volume of 0.355 l, leading to 78.1 l/min or 1.3 l/s or 0.0013 m³/s.

At Point 2:
A2 = 8 cm² = 0.0008 m²
V2 = Flow rate/A2 = 0.0013/0.0008 = 1.625 m/s
P1 = 152 kPa = 152000 Pa

At Point 1:
A1 = 2 cm² = 0.0002 m²
V1 = Flow rate/A1 = 0.0013/0.0002 = 6.5 m/s
P1 =?
Height = 1.35 m

Using Bernoulli’s principle;
P2 + 1/2 * V2² / density = P1 + 1/2 * V1² / density + density * gravitational acceleration * height
=> 152000 + 0.5 * (1.625)² * 1000 = P1 + 0.5 * (6.5)² * 1000 + (1000 * 9.81 * 1.35)
=> 153320.31 = P1 + 34368.5
=> P1 = 1533210.31 - 34368.5 = 118951.81 Pa = 118.95 kPa

You stand on a bathroom scale in a moving elevator. what happens to the scale reading if the cable holding the elevator suddenly
Sav [2226]

A bathroom scale operates under gravitational influence. Typically, a reading is captured when your body applies force onto the scale. Yet in this scenario, as both you and the scale move downwards, your body ceases to press against the scale. Consequently, the result is:
