Korvikt [17]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

<em>D. 20 N</em>

Explanation:

<em>Force</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>mass(</em><em>m)</em><em> </em><em>×</em><em> </em><em>acceleration</em><em> due</em><em> to</em><em> </em><em>gravity (</em><em>g)</em>

<em>Force </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>k</em><em>g</em><em> </em><em>×</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>0</em><em>m</em><em>/</em><em>s²</em>

<em>Force</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>0</em><em>N</em>

A 3047.8 kg truck has lost its brakes coming down a mountain. Fortunately, there is a ramp of thick gravel inclined at 9.5 degre
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The work done by the gravel to stop the truck is 520.44 kJ

Explanation:

<u>Step 1</u>: Data given

Mass of the truck = 3047.8 kg

The ramp has an angle of 9.5 °

Velocity of  the truck = 20.68 m/s

distance = 26.6 meters

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate initial kinetic energy

sin 9.5° = 0.165

h = ℓ*sin 9.5° = 26.6*0.165= 4.39 m

Ek = 1/2m*Vo² = 1/2*3047.8*20.68² = 651714.7 Joule = 651.7 kJ  = initial kinetic energy

<u>Step 3: </u>Calculate potential energy

Epot = U = m*g*h = 3047.8*9.81*4.39 = 131256.25 Joule = 131.26 kJ

<u>Step 4:</u>  What work is done by the truck on the gravel?  

Frictional energy Ef = 651.7 kJ - 131.26 kJ = 520.44 kJ

viktelen [127]
1000 miles = 1610km = 1.61x10^6m
2 weeks = 14 days = 14x24x1440

V=d/t = 1.61x10^6/14x24x1440
= 3.33m/s
