Asled of mass m is coasting on the icy surface of a frozen river. while it is passing under a bridge, a package of equal mass m is dropped straight down and lands on the sled (without causing any damage). the sled plus the added load then continue along the original line of motion. how does the kinetic energy of the (sled + load) compare with the original kinetic energy of the sled? a) it is 1/4 the original kinetic energy of the sled. b) it is 1/2 the original kinetic energy of the sled. c) it is 3/4 the original kinetic energy of the sled. d) it is the same as the original kinetic energy of the sled. e) it is twice the original kinetic energy of the sled.

The heater element of a 120 v toaster is a 5.4 m length of nichrome wire, whose diameter is 0.48 mm. the resistivity of nichrome at the operating temperature of the toaster is 1.3 × 10-6 ω·m. the toaster is operated at a voltage of 120 v. (a) what is the power drawn by the toaster? (b) if the cost of electricity is 12 ¢ per kilowatt-hour, and it takes 2 minutes to toast bread, how much does it cost for toasted bread? (c) when the heater element is at room temperature, is the resistivity in the nichrome wire greater than, less than, or equal to it’s resistivity when at operating temperature? explain.
