A box is resting on a rough floor. You then decide to push it forward a distance of 10 m and measure that the thermal energy of the box increases by 100 J. At that point, you push the box back to its initial position. What is the change in the thermal energy of the box for the return portion? 100 J -100 J 200 J -200 J

The Joule (J) and calorie (cal) are both units of energy. In the U.S., the energy provided by food is given on product labels in nutritional calories (NC). 1 NC is the same as 1 kilocalorie (kcal). In England, the energy provided by food is given in kilojoules (kJ). A can of soup in england has the following nutritional information on the label: 385 kJ of energy per 275.0 mL of soup. In the U.S., the same nutritional information would be given in NC per cup of soup. How many NC per cup does the soup provide?
Kangaroos have very stout tendons in their legs that can be used to store energy. When a kangaroo lands on its feet, the tendons stretch, transforming kinetic energy of motion to elastic potential energy. Much of this energy can be transformed back into kinetic energy as the kangaroo takes another hop. The kangaroo’s peculiar hopping gait is not very efficient at low speeds but is quite efficient at high speeds. as shown the energy cost of human and kangaroo locomotion. The graph shows oxygen uptake (in mL/s) per kg of body mass, allowing a direct comparison between the two species. For humans, the energy used per second (i.e., power) is proportional to the speed. That is, the human curve nearly passes through the origin, so running twice as fast takes approximately twice as much power. For a hopping kangaroo, the graph of energy use has only a very small slope. In other words, the energy used per second changes very little with speed. Going faster requires very little additional…

6 .A 32.0 kg child slides down a long slide in a playground. She starts from rest at a height h1 of 17.00 m. When she is partway down the slide, at a height h2 of 9.00 m, she is moving at a speed of 9.50 m/s. Calculate the mechanical energy lost due to friction (as heat, etc.).

give a specific example of a process that has the energy changes and transfers described. (For example, if the question states “ΔEth >0, W = 0,” you are to describe a process that has an increase in thermal energy and no transfer of energy by work. You could write “Heating a pan of water on the stove.”) ΔEth < 0, Q = 0
Similar to the previous problem, we heat about a cup (230 g) of milk (we'll treat it like water, with a specific heat of 4186 J/kg °C) from refrigerator temperature (5.2 °C) to a comfortable drinking temperature (52.5 °C) in order to make a cup of hot chocolate. First, find the energy required to heat this milk. Next, imagine giving a 1,600 kg truck this same amount of kinetic energy. What speed (in m/s) will the truck be travelling?
