Chapter 3, Problem 23RQ

When applying the principles of work and force,

  1. work is accomplished when force is applied to an object that does not move

  • in the metric system the measurement for work is cubic centimeters
  • no work is accomplished when an object is stopped by mechanical force
  • if a 50-pound object is moved 10 feet, 500 ft.-lb of work are produced
  • Blurred answer
    Students have asked these similar questions
    A garage door has two springs, one on each side of the door. A force of 50 pounds is required to stretch each spring 10 feet. How many foot/pounds of work is done by the pair of springs if each spring stretches 7 feet from its natural length when the garage door is open.
    The small piston of hydraulic jack has a radius of 2 cm. If a force of 50 Lb. is applied to the small piston raises a weight of 2000 Lb., what is the radius of the large piston
    A.) Find WAB, the work done by the gas during process AB. Express the work in terms of p1, p2, V1, and/or V2.   B.) Find WBC, the work done by the gas during process BC. Express the work in terms of p1, p2, V1, and/or V2.   C.) Find WCD, the work done by the gas during process CD. Express the work in terms of p1, p2, V1, and/or V2.   D.) Find WDA, the work done by the gas during process DA. Express the work in terms of p1, p2, V1, and/or V2.   E.) What is the change in internal energy UB−UA during the process AB? What is the change in internal energy UD−UC during the process CD?   F.) What is the change in internal energy UC−UB during the process BC? What is the change in internal energy UA−UD during the process DA?   G. What is the total change in the gas's internal energy after it has completed a cycle?
