Concept explainers

The flow of energy from one region to another region is referred to as energy transfer. Since energy is quantitative; it must be transferred to a body or a material to work or to heat the system.

Molar Specific Heat

Heat capacity is the amount of heat energy absorbed or released by a chemical substance per the change in temperature of that substance. The change in heat is also called enthalpy. The SI unit of heat capacity is Joules per Kelvin, which is (J K-1)

Thermal Properties of Matter

Thermal energy is described as one of the form of heat energy which flows from one body of higher temperature to the other with the lower temperature when these two bodies are placed in contact to each other. Heat is described as the form of energy which…

Textbook Question

Chapter 14.4, Problem 25P

The cooling system of a truck engine contains 20.0 L of water. (1 L of water has a mass of 1 kg. ) (a) If the engine is run until 845 kJ of heat is added, what is the change in temperature of the water? (b) In the winter, the system was filled with 20.0 L of ethyl alcohol with density 0.800 g/cm³. If the ethyl alcohol absorbed the same 845 kJ of heat, what would be the increase in temperature of the alcohol? (c) Would ethyl alcohol or water be a better coolant? Why?

Need help on the following questions on biomechanics. (Please refer to images below)A gymnast weighing 68 kg attempts a handstand using only one arm. He plants his handat an angle resulting in the reaction force shown.A) Find the resultant force (acting on the Center of Mass)B) Find the resultant moment (acting on the Center of Mass)C) Draw the resultant force and moment about the center of mass on the figure below. Will the gymnast rotate, translate, or both? And in which direction?

Please help me on the following question (Please refer to image below)An Olympic lifter (m = 103kg) is holding a lift with a mass of 350 kg. The barexerts a purely vertical force that is equally distributed between both hands. Each arm has amass of 9 kg, are 0.8m long and form a 40° angle with the horizontal. The CoM for each armis 0.5 m from hand. Assuming the lifter is facing us in the diagram below, his right deltoidinserts 14cm from the shoulder at an angle of 13° counter-clockwise from the humerus.A) You are interested in calculating the force in the right deltoid. Draw a free body diagramof the right arm including the external forces, joint reaction forces, a coordinate system andstate your assumptions.B) Find the force exerted by the right deltoidC) Find the shoulder joint contact force. Report your answer using the magnitude and directionof the shoulder force vector.
