Denise is conducting a physics experiment to measure the acceleration of a falling object when it slows down and comes to a stop. she drops a wooden block with a mass of 0.5 kilograms on a sensor on the floor. the sensor measures the force of the impact as 4.9 newtons. what’s the acceleration of the wooden block when it hits the sensor? use f = ma.
a.
2.45 m/s2
b.
4.4 m/s2
c.
5.4 m/s2
d.
9.8 m/s2

We want to calculate the total metabolic heat generated by a singing canary taking into account heat transfer by radiation, convection and exhaling air. the air temperature is 20 oc, canary’s body internal and surface temperature is 33oc, external body surface convective heat transfer coefficient is 25.2 w/m2 .k, temperature difference between the inhaled and exhaled air is 4.3 oc, the ventilation rate is 0.74 cc of air per second, specific heat of air is 1.0066 kj/kg. k and density of air is 1.16 kg/m3 . assume the canary’s body to be a cylinder with 7 cm diameter and 9 cm length, and heat exchange is from the side as well as the top and bottom of cylinder. calculate 1) the net rate of heat lost by radiation, assuming heat gained by the bird through radiation from the surroundings is 11.5 w; 2) rate of heat transferred by convection to the surrounding air; 3) rate of heat transferred in the exhaling air without considering any internal evaporation; 4) total metabolic power.

Africtionless piston-cylinder contains 50 l of saturated liquid r-134a. the piston has a mass and an area resulting in an applied pressure of 500 kpa on the refrigerant. the refrigerant is now heated until its temperature rises to 70∘c. calculate the work (in kj) done during this process.
