Maksim231197 [3]

We know that the Delta E + W(Work done by non-conservative forces) = 0 (change of energy)

In here, the non-conservative force is the friction force where f = uN (u =kinetic friction coefficient) 

W= f x d = uNd ; N=mg 
Delta E = 1/2 mV^2 -1/2mVi^2 

umgd + 1/2mV^2 - 1/2mVi^2 = 0 (cancel out the m term) 

This will then give us: 

1/2Vi^2-ugd = 1/2V^2 

V^2 = Vi^2 - 2ugd

So plugging in our values, will give us:

V= Sqrt (5.6^2 -2.3^2)

=sqrt (26.07)

= 5.11 m/s

A man has 887.5 J of kinetic energy while running with a velocity of 5 m/s. What is his mass?
monitta

Answer:

The mass of the man is 71 kg

Explanation:

Given;

kinetic energy of the man, K.E = 887.5 J

velocity of the man, v = 5 m/s

The mass of the man is calculated as follows;

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

where;

m is the mass of the man

2K.E = mv²

m = 2K.E / v²

m = (2 x 887.5) / (5)²

m = 71 kg

Therefore, the mass of the man is 71 kg

(f) What do you mean by: (i) 1 J energy (ii) 1 W power​
max2010maxim [7]

Explanation:

Watts are defined as 1 Watt = 1 Joule per second (1W = 1 J/s)

which means that 1 kW = 1000 J/s. A Watt is the amount of energy (in Joules) that an electrical device (such as a light) is burning per second that it's running.
