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

Physics

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

A capacitor with plates separated by a distance d is charged to a potential difference ΔVC. All wires and batteries are disconne
Tom [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial separation of plate = d

final separation = 2d

The capacitance of the capacitor will reduce from C to C/2 because

capacitance = ε A / d

d is distance between plates.

As the batteries are disconnected , charge on the capacitor becomes fixed .

Initial charge on the capacitor

= Capacitance x potential difference

Q = C ΔV

Final charge will remain unchanged

Final charge = C ΔV

Final capacitance = C/2

Final potential difference = charge / capacitance

= C ΔV /  C/2

= 2 ΔV

Potential difference is doubled after the pates are further separated.
