A 850-kg sports car accelerates from rest to 95 km/h in 6.8 s .

Physics

From the calculations, the power expended is 43650 W.

<h3>What is the power expended?</h3>

Now we can find the acceleration from;

v = u + at

u = 0 m/s

v =  95 km/h or 26.4 m/s

t =  6.8 s

a = ?

Now

v = at

a = v/t

a = 26.4 m/s/ 6.8 s

a = 3.88 m/s^2

Force = ma = 850-kg * 3.88 m/s^2 = 3298 N

The distance covered is obtained from;

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

v^2 = 2as

s = v^2/2a

s = (26.4)^2/2 * 3.88

s = 696.96/7.76

s = 90 m

Now;

Work = Fs

Work =  3298 N * 90 m = 296820 J

Power =  296820 J/ 6.8 s

= 43650 W

What is the smallest radius of an unbanked (flat) track around which a bicyclist can travel if her speed is 22 km/h and the coef
Aleks [24]
First, let's put 22 km/h in m/s:

22 \frac{km}{h} \times  \frac{1000m}{1km}  \times  \frac{1h}{3600s}=6.11 \frac{m}{s}

Now the radial force required to keep an object of mass m, moving in circular motion around a radius R, is given by

F_{rad}=m \frac{v^2}{R}

The force of friction is given by the normal force (here, just the weight, mg) times the static coefficient of friction:

F_{fric}= mg \mu_{s}

Notice we don't use the kinetic coefficient even though the bike is moving.  This is because when the tires meet the road they are momentarily stationary with the road surface.  Otherwise the bike is skidding.

Now set these equal, since friction is the only thing providing the ability to accelerate (turn) without skidding off the road in a line tangent to the curve:

m\frac{v^2}{R} = mg \mu_{s} \\ \\ \frac{v^2}{R} = g \mu_{s} \\ \\R= \frac{v^2}{g \mu_{s}} \\ \\ R= \frac{6.11}{9.8 \times 0.37}=1.685m

Hannah walks 0.30 km to class in 5.0 min. what is her average speed in m/s?
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

1.0 m/s

Explanation:

First, convert to SI units.

0.30 km × (1000 m / km) = 300 m

5.0 min × (60 s / min) = 300 s

Speed is distance divided by time:

300 m / 300 s = 1.0 m/s

(a) Write the energy equation for an elastic collision. (b) For an inelastic collision.
velikii [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are two types of collision.

(a) Elastic collision: When there is no loss of energy during the collision, then the collision is said to be elastic collision.

In case of elastic collision, the momentum is conserved, the kinetic energy is conserved and all the forces are conservative in nature.

The momentum of the system before collision = the momentum of system after collision

The kinetic energy of the system before collision = the kinetic energy after the collision

(b) Inelastic collision: When there is some loss of energy during the collision, then the collision is said to be inelastic collision.

In case of inelastic collision, the momentum is conserved, the kinetic energy is not conserved, the total mechanical energy is conserved and all the forces or some of the forces are non conservative in nature.

The momentum of the system before collision = the momentum of system after collision

The total mechanical energy of the system before collision = total mechanical of the system after the collision
