Two ice skaters, one with a mass of 45 kg and the other with a mass of 60 kg, push off against one another starting from a stationary position. after they have pushed off, the relative speed at which they separate is 0.600m/s. what is the speed of the 60kg skater?

When a bicycle coasts uphill, it moves slower and slower as it climbs. why? a. its kinetic energy is transforming into heat energy. b. its potential energy is transforming into kinetic energy. c. its kinetic energy is transforming into potential energy and heat energy. d. its potential energy is transforming into kinetic energy and heat energy.

Two kilograms of air within a piston–cylinder assembly executes a carnot power cycle with maximum and minimum temperatures of 800 k and 300 k, respectively. the heat transfer to the air during the isothermal expansion is 60 kj. at the end of the isothermal expansion the volume is 0.4 m3. assume the ideal gas model for the air. determine the thermal efficiency, the volume at the beginning of the isothermal expansion, in m3, and the work during the adiabatic expansion, in kj.

The ideal gas model is valid if which of the following conditions is true? the gas density is low. the gas density is high. the temperature is low. the temperature is high. the gas density and the temperature are low. the gas density and the temperature are high. the gas density is high and the temperature is low. the gas density is low and the temperature is high.
