Basic Terminology in Mechanics

The area of science and mathematics concerned the motion of the objects, the relation between the force matter, and motion if specified. Forces exerted over the objects result in displacements or changes in the position of an object concerning its environment. This branch of physics keeps its roots in Ancient Greece in the form of the scripts of Aristotle and Archimedes.

The Louisiana Superdome has an interior volume of 125 million ft3, covered by a 440,000 ft² roof. On a particular day, the interior air pressure gave a manometer reading of 19 inches mercury (pHg = 13.6 g/cm³). Local atmospheric pressure is 102 kPa. 1. kg Calculate the mass of the air inside, assuming an average temperature of 20 °C. 2. kN Calculate the net force applied to the roof by the interior/exterior air (do not account for the weight of the roof). Assume the roof is flat.

The 1st law of thermodynamics is ΔU = Q –W. Use this statement of the 1st law to show (mathematically) its equivalent statement: “Total energy of the universe is constant”. Here, the universe can be defined as: system + surroundings (everything but the system –everything outside the system). (Hint: this can be shown by two ways-you may either treat system and surroundings as two systems next to each other, or you may treat system + surroundings (universe) as one system.)
