The final kinetic energy of the skateboarder after she freewheels and did work against friction on the flat section of the path is 4,600 J.

<h3>Conservation of energy</h3>

The final kinetic energy of the stakeboarder is determined by applying the principle of conservation of energy as shown below;

ΔK.E = -W

K.Ef - K.Ei = -W

where;

  • K.Ef is the final kinetic energy
  • K.Ei is the initial kinetic energy
  • W is work done

K.Ef = K.Ei - W

K.Ef = 5,000 J - 400 J

K.Ef = 4,600 J

Thus, the final kinetic energy of the skateboarder is 4,600 J.

Why do seat belts help protect passengers when a car stops quickly? Explain your answer in terms of forces and motions.
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

If the driver is wearing a seat belt, the seat belt rather than the windshield applies the unbalanced force that stops the driver's forward motion. The force from the seat belt is applied over a longer time, so the force causes less damage.

Centripetal force is a centering force related to acceleration. The centripetal force when driving prevents which of the followi
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

C. The car from driving off the road on a curve

Explanation:

A centripetal force actually causes circular motion. This occurs when an object moves in a circular path or a circle,a force will definitely act on it.

For instance, a car travelling in a circular path must definitely experience this force acting on it, even when the car moves at a constant speed. If it does not exist the object will definitely spin off in a direction tangential to the circular path or curve.
