Calculate the kinetic energy in joules of a 1,500 kg car that is moving at a speed of 42 km/h

Physics
1 answer:
Rzqust [24]3 years ago
4 0
Data:
KE (Kinetic Energy) = ? (Joule)
m (mass) = 1500 Kg 
v (speed) = 42 Km/h
converting to m/s (42 / 3.6), we have: v (speed) = 11.6 m/s

Formula:
K_{E} =   \frac{1}{2} m*v^2

Solving:
K_{E} = \frac{1}{2} m*v^2
K_{E} =  \frac{1}{2} *1500*(11.6)^2
K_{E} = \frac{1}{2} *1500*134.56
K_{E} =  \frac{201840}{2}
\boxed{\boxed{K_{E} = 100920\:Joule}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark

Plz help..During takeoff a plane accelerates at 4m/s^2 and takes 40s to reach takeoff speed.
matrenka [14]

Answer:

The velocity of the plane at take off is 160 m/s.

The distance travel by the plane in that time is 3200 meter.

Explanation:

Given:

Acceleration, a = 4 m/s²

Time, t = 40 s

u = 0 i .e initial velocity

To Find:

velocity , v = ?

distance , s =?

Solution:

we have first Kinematic equation

v = u + at

∴ v = 0 + 4×40

∴ v = 160 m/s

Now by Third Kinematic equation

s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}

∴ s = 0 + 0.5 × 4× 40²

∴ s = 3200 meter

What is the formula to calculate the thickness of a test tube?​
Maslowich

Answer:

Having the inside dimensions (ID) and the outside dimensions (OD) will allow you to figure out the wall thickness on tubing. You would need to subtract the ID from the OD and then divide by two. This number is the wall thickness.

When you jump straight up as high as you can, what is the order of magnitude of the maximum recoil speed that you give to the Ea
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

5.66 × 10⁻²³ m/s

Explanation:

If i assume i can jump as high as h = 2 m, my initial velocity is gotten from v² = u² + 2gh. Since my final velocity v = 0, u = √2gh = √(2 × 9.8 × 2) = √39.2 m/s = 6.26 m/s.

Since initial momentum = final momentum,

mv₁ + MV₁ = mv₂ + MV₂ where m, M, v₁, V₁, v₂ and V₂ are my mass, mass of earth, my initial velocity, earth's initial velocity, my final velocity and earth's final velocity respectively.

My mass m = 54 kg, M = 5.972 × 10²⁴ kg, v₁ = 6.26 m/s, V₁ = 0, v₂ = 0 and V₂ = ?

So mv₁ + M × 0 = m × 0 + MV₂

mv₁ = MV₂

V₂ = mv₁/M =  54kg × 6.26 m/s/5.972 × 10²⁴ kg = 338.093/5.972 × 10²⁴ = 56.61 × 10⁻²⁴ m/s = 5.661 × 10⁻²³ m/s ≅ 5.66 × 10⁻²³ m/s

What motivates the squire in lines 85- 90?
just olya [345]
<span>Answer: If you mean the Knight in the prologue, the man traveling with his son (the Squire) and a Yeoman, he is traveling to Canterbury to give thanks for his safe return from the wars in the Baltic. We're told that he has never been known to speak unkindly to anyone, a fact that sums up his chivalrous upbringing. Evidently he feels strongly motivated to live by a code of high standards and refined behavior.</span>
