A 3.50 kg block of ice slides down a ramp. The block starts at the top of the ramp from rest, and when it reaches the bottom of the ramp it is traveling at a speed of 2.00 m/s. The ramp is 4.50 m high vertically. Assume that the block of ice and ramp form a closed system (no surrounding air), and that any change in internal energy of the system occurs in the block of ice, not in the ramp. c (m,ice) = 2090 J/kg·K g=9.80 m/s2 Find the change in temperature of the block from the top to the bottom. Find the change in the mechanical energy (potential + kinetic) of the block from the top to the bottom.    Find the change in the internal energy of the block from the top to the bottom.

Question

A 3.50 kg block of ice slides down a ramp. The block starts at the top of the ramp from rest, and when it reaches the bottom of the ramp it is traveling at a speed of 2.00 m/s. The ramp is 4.50 m high vertically.

Assume that the block of ice and ramp form a closed system (no surrounding air), and that any change in internal energy of the system occurs in the block of ice, not in the ramp.

c (m,ice) = 2090 J/kg·K g=9.80 m/s2

Find the change in temperature of the block from the top to the bottom.

Find the change in the mechanical energy (potential + kinetic) of the block from the top to the bottom. 

 

Find the change in the internal energy of the block from the top to the bottom.
