Answer:
630.75 j
Explanation:
from the question we have the following
total mass (m) = 54.5 kg
initial speed (Vi) = 1.4 m/s
final speed (Vf) = 6.6 m/s
frictional force (FF) = 41 N
height of slope (h) = 2.1 m
length of slope (d) = 12.4 m
acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^2
work done (wd) = ?
- we can calculate the work done by the boy in pushing the chair using the law of law of conservation of energy
wd + mgh = (0.5 mVf^2) - (0.5 mVi^2) + (FF x d)
wd = (0.5 mVf^2) - (0.5 mVi^2) + (FF x d) - (mgh)
where wd = work done
m = mass
h = height
g = acceleration due to gravity
FF = frictional force
d = distance
Vf and Vi = final and initial velocity
wd = (0.5 x 54.5 x 6.9^2) - (0.5 x 54.5 x 1.4^2) + (41 x 12.4) - (54.5 X 9.8 X 2.1)
wd = 630.75 j
In this question all required information's are already provided. Based on these details the answer to the question can be easily determined. Let us now write down all the information's that are already given.
Mass of the roller coaster = 1000 kg
Velocity of the roller coaster = 20.0 m/s
We know the formula for finding the kinetic energy is
Kinetic energy = 0.5 * mass * (velocity) ^2
= 0.5 * 1000 * (20)^2
= 0.5 * 1000 * 400
= 200000 Joules
So the Kinetic energy of the roller coaster is 200000 joules.
i hope this helps you friend good luck on your quiz or lesson
