- A tank has the shape of an inverted right circular cone with height 9m and radius 18m. It is filled with 5m of hot chocolate. Assume that the density of the hot chocolate is 1450kg/m^3 and g=9.8m/s^2.Find the work required to empty the tank by pumping the hot chocolate over the top of the tank.Work = Joules.arrow_forwardYou stand at the top of a cliff and lower a first aid kit (attached to a rope) down the cliff to an injured hiker at a constant speed. What can you say about the work done by the rope and the work done by gravity on the kit as it is lowered? O The work done by the rope is positive and the work done by gravity is positive. The work done by the rope is negative and the work done by gravity is negative. O The work done by the rope is positive and the work done by gravity is negative. O The work done by the rope is zero and the work done by gravity is zero. O The work done by the rope is negative and the work done by gravity is positive.arrow_forwardAn object is subjected to a friction force with magnitude 4.65 N, which acts against the object's velocity. What is the work (in J) needed to move the object at constant speed for the following routes? y (m) В (5.00, 5.00) x (m) A (a) the purple path O to A followed by a return purple path to O (b) the purple path O to C followed by a retum blue path to O (c) the blue path O to C followed by a return blue path to Oarrow_forward
- During terrible weather at a ski-flying world championship, a ski jumper tried to adjust for bad conditions midway down the ramp but completely lost control and tumbled wildly off the side at its bottom into a scattering crowd. The 73-kg jumper left the ramp about 45 m lower than his starting position. After hitting the ground, the jumper crashed wildly and descended down the hill another 20 vertical meters before coming to rest. Here, friction cannot be ignored. Calculate the total work done on the ski jumper to bring him to rest. Round the final answer to the nearest whole number.arrow_forwardAn object is subjected to a friction force with magnitude 6.60 N, which acts against the object's velocity. What is the work (in J) needed to move the object at constant speed for the following routes? у (m) В (5.00, 5.00) x (m) A (a) the purple path O to A followed by a return purple path to O (b) the purple path O to C followed by a return blue path to O the blue path O to C followed by a return blue path to O (d) Each of your three answers should be nonzero. What is the significance of this observation? O The force of friction is a conservative force. O The force of friction is a nonconservative force.arrow_forwardIndicate (with a T of F) whether the statement is true or false. If false, change the underlined word or phrase to make the statement true. A bicycle moving at 5.0 m/s at sea level has more potential energy than a motionless bicycle at the top of a mountain. Mechanical work is calculated by multiplying the magnitude of a force times the amount of time it is applied. The SI unit for work is the joule. One joule is equivalent to 1N: m in SI units 5 tv MacBook Proarrow_forward
- Problem 2: Suppose a car approaches a hill and has an initial speed of 108 km/h at the bottom of the hill. The driver takes her foot off of the gas pedal and allows the car to coast up the hill. a) If the car has the initial speed stated at a height of h = 0, how high, in meters, can the car coast up a hill if work done by friction is negligible? b) If, in actuality, a 770-kg car with an initial speed of 108 km/h is observed to coast up a hill and stops at a height 20.5m above its starting point, how much thermal energy was generated by friction in J?arrow_forwardTimothy weighs 515 N. he runs up a 16.5m tall building and jumps off. When he reaches the ground, he is travelling at 16.4 m/s. What is the work done by air resistance? Use formulas mgh and 1/2m(vf^2) - 1/2m(vi^2) if possible.arrow_forwardAn object moves in the x-y plane while acted on by the force F(x,y) = k1yi + k2xj, where k1 and k2 are constants with units of N/m. The object moves along a straight line path from Cartesian coordinate (x1, y1) to (x2, y2). Write an expression for the work done on the object by this force.arrow_forward
