A certain cloud at an altitude of 1.75 km contains 3.2x107 kg of water vapor. What time it would take a 2.7 kW pump to lift the same amount of water from the surface from the Earth to the position of the cloud?
In 1981, Daniel Goodwin climbed 443 m up the exterior of the Sears Building in Chicago using suction cups and metal clips. (a) Approximate his mass and then compute how much energy he had to transfer from biomechanical (internal) energy to the gravitational potential energy of the Earth–Goodwin system to lift himself to that height. (b) How much energy would he have had to transfer if he had, instead, taken the stairs inside the building (to the same height)?
Consider these scenarios and state whether work is done by the system on the environment (SE) or by the environment on the system (ES): (a) opening a carbonated beverage; (b) filling a flat tire; (c) a sealed empty gas can expands on a hot day, bowing out the walls.
