In the figure, a 3.2 g ice flake is released from the edge of a hemispherical bowl whose radius ris 19 cm. The flake-bowl contact is frictionless. (a) What is the speed of the flake when it reaches the bottom of the bowl? (b) If we substituted a second flake with 5 times the mass, what would its speed be? (c) If, instead, we gave the flake an initial downward speed 0.51 m/s along the bowl, what would the answer be? Ice flake-

An object moves with kinetic energy 18 J at ground level (where potential energy = 0), and moves 2 meters up a ramp, generating 4 J of heat (due to friction) during this process. If its kinetic energy is 5 J after this process, then what is its new potential energy in units of Joules (J)?
A body with mass 0.40 kg moves in one dimension according to a potential of theform U(x) = A/x3-B/x , where A = 4.0 Jm3 abd B = 3.0 Jm, and we take x > 0. (a) If the speed of the body at x = 4.0m is v = 3.9 ms−1, what is the speed at x = 1.5 m? (b) Explain briefly what type(s) of motion are possible in this potential if the totalenergy E = 3.0 J.
It is estimated that a person expends about 2 kJ of energy per pound of body weight in walking a mile. Which has the better performance rating based on pound-miles per unit mass of fuel, a person using glucose as a fuel or a car using gasoline? (Take a representative value of a 1-ton car and 20 mile/gal fuel consumption for the car. 1 US gallon is 3.785 L and the density of gasoline is about 0.68 g/mL.) State your assumptions.
If you expended 1500 watts for 3 hours, how many kilowatt-hours (kWh) would that be? Enter answer as number followed by a space and then the correct units (i.e "123 Unit").
A 58-kg diver is standing on a platform that is 35 meters above the surface of the water. He steps off the platform with zero initial velocity and descends toward the water below. Assuming that no energy is lost to his surroundings, how much kinetic energy (in joules) does the diver have right before he hits the water?
A tank has the shape of an inverted circular cone (point at the bottom) with height 6 feet and radius 4 feet. The tank is full of water. We pump out water (to a pipe at the top of the tank) until the water level is 3 feet from the bottom. The work W required to do this is given by W = foot-pounds.
This is a multiple choice with 3 parts so all parts need to be answered. They are not separate questions so this is not against guidelines. Please just give me the number of the questions and the letter of the answer, no need to do too much work. Thank you!!!
A kilowatt-hour (kWh) is a unit of measure equal to one thousand watts of electricity being used in one hour. Power companies use this measurement to determine your home energy bill. Consider using a bike for power: It takes 6 minutes pedalling at 24-26 volts consistently to produce just 1/10 (0.1) of a kWh. An average home uses about 25 kWh a day. How long would someone have to pedal at 24-26 Volts to power an average home?
Your answer is partially correct. The summit of a mountain is 5540 m above sea level. (a) How much energy would a 87 kg climber expend against the gravitational force on him in climbing to the summit from sea level? (b) How many candy bars, at 2.13 MJ per bar, would supply an energy equivalent to this? Your answer should suggest that work done against the gravitational force is a very small part of the energy expended in climbing a mountain. (a) Number i 4.728 Units m (b) 2.22
Two railroad cars, each of mass 7495kg and traveling 82.8km/h opposite directions, collide head-on and come to rest. How mu thermal energy is produced in this collision?
A cylindrical water tank 6 meters high with a radius of 2 meters is buried so that the top of the tank is 1 meter below ground level (see figure). How much work is done in pumping a full tank of water up to the ground level? (the water weighs 9800 Newtons per cubic meter.)
