Explanation of Solution

Given:

The mass of rock piece is 2.0kg .

The initial speed of rock piece is 40m/s .

The maximum height attained by the rock piece is 50m .

Formula used:

Write the expression for initial kinetic energy.

  Ki=12mvi2 ........(1)

Here, m is mass of object, Ki is the initial kinetic energy and vi is the initial velocity of object

Calculation:

Substitute 2.0kg for m and 40m/s for vi in equation (1).

  Ki=12(2.0kg)(40m/s)2=1600J( 1kJ 1000J)=1.6kJ

Conclusion:

Thus, the initial kinetic energy of rock pieceis 1.6kJ .

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The mass of rock piece is 2.0kg .

The initial speed of rock piece is 40m/s .

The maximum height attained by the rock piece is 50m .

Formula used:

Write the expression for change in potential energy.

  ΔU=mg(hfhi)

Here, ΔU is the change in potential energy, m is mass of object, g is gravitational acceleration, hi is the initial height of object and hf is the final height of object.

Write the expression for change in kinetic energy.

  ΔK=12m(vf2vi2)

Here, ΔK is the change in kinetic energy, vi is the initial velocity of object and vf is the final velocity of object.

Total energy of object is conserved at all points. Work done by external force is equal to the sum of change in gravitational potential energy, kinetic energy and thermal energy.

Write the expression of work done by external force.

  Wexternal=ΔU+ΔK+ΔEthermal ........(1)

Here, Wexternal is the work done by external force and ΔEthermal is the thermal energy.

There is no external force acting on the block; so, the work done by external force is zero.

Substitute 12m(vf2vi2) for ΔK , 0 for Wexternal and mg(hfhi) for ΔU in equation (1).

  0=12m(vf2vi2)+mg(hfhi)+ΔEthermal

Substitute 0 for hi , 0 for vf and rearrange the above expression in terms of ΔEthermal .

  ΔEthermal=12mvi2mghf ........(2)

Calculation:

Substitute 1.6kJ for 12mvi2 , 2.0kg for m , 9.81m/s2 for g and 50m for hf in equation (2).

  ΔEthermal=1.6kJ(2.0kg)(9.81m/ s 2)(50m)=1.6kJ(981J)( 1kJ 1000J)=0.619kJ

Conclusion:

Thus, the increase in thermal energy due to air resistance is 0.619kJ .

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The mass of rock piece is 2.0kg .

The initial speed of rock piece is 40m/s .

The maximum height attained by the rock piece is 50m .

The increase in thermal energy during downward motion is 70% to the thermal energy during upward motion.

Formula used:

Write the expression for change in potential energy.

  ΔU=mg(hfhi)

Here, ΔU is the change in potential energy, m is mass of object, g is gravitational acceleration, hi is the initial height of object and hf is the final height of object.

Write the expression for change in kinetic energy.

  ΔK=12m(vf2vi2)

Here, ΔK is the change in kinetic energy, vi is the initial velocity of object and vf is the final velocity of object.

Total energy of object is conserved at all points. Work done by external force is equal to the sum of change in gravitational potential energy, kinetic energy and thermal energy.

Write the expression of work done by external force.

  Wexternal=ΔU+ΔK+ΔEthermal ........(1)

Here, Wexternal is the work done by external force and ΔEthermal is the thermal energy.

There is no external force acting on the block; so, the work done by external force is zero.

For rock-piece moving upward:

Substitute 12m(vf2vi2) for ΔK , 0 for Wexternal and mg(hfhi) for ΔU in equation (1).

  0=12m(vf2vi2)+mg(hfhi)+ΔEthermal

Substitute 0 for hi , 0 for vf and rearrange the above expression in terms of ΔEthermal .

  ΔEthermal=12mvi2mghf

For rock-piece moving downward:

Substitute 12m(vf2vi2) for ΔK , 0 for Wexternal , 0.70(ΔEthermal) for ΔEthermal and mg(hfhi) for ΔU in equation (1).

  0=12m(vf2vi2)+mg(hfhi)+0.70(ΔEthermal)

Substitute 0 for hf , 0 for vi and rearrange the above expression in terms of vf .

  vf=2(ghi 0.70( Δ E thermal )m) ........(2)

Calculation:

Substitute 0.619kJ for ΔEthermal , 2.0kg for m , 9.81m/s2 for g and 50m for hi in equation (2).

  vf=2( ( 9.81m/ s 2 )( 50m ) 0.70( 0.619kJ ) 2.0kg )=23m/s

Conclusion:

Thus, the final speed of the rock piece is 23m/s .
