<u>KINETIC ENERGY</u></h2>
<h3>Problem:</h3>
» A 2kg mass is moving at 3m/s. What is its kinetic energy?
<h3>Answer:</h3>
— — — — — — — — — —
<h3>Formula:</h3>
To calculate the velocity of a kinetic energy, we can use formula
where,
- v is the velocity in m/s
- KE is the kinetic energy in J (joules)
- m is the mass in kg
— — —
Based on the problem, the givens are:
- KE (Kinetic energy) = ? (unknown)
- m (mass) = 2 kg
- v (velocity) = 3 m/s
<h3>Solution:</h3>
To get the velocity, substitute the givens in the formula above then solve.
Therefore, the kinetic energy is 9 Joules.
There’s nothing to answer so I can’t help
The momentum of each cart is given by:
where
m is the mass of the cart
v is its velocity (at the bottom of the ramp)
To answer the problem, let's calculate the momentum of each of the 4 carts:
1)
2)
3)
4)
Therefore, the cart with greatest momentum is cart 3, so the right answer is
<span>- trial 3, because this trial has a large mass and a large velocity</span>
First step is to convert the lb to kg as follows:
1 lb = 0.45 kg
Therefore, 150 lb = 150 x 0.45 = 67.5 kg
Avogadro's number = 6.02 x 10^23
Mass of Avogadro's number of people = 6.02 x 10^23 x 67.5
= 4.0635 x 10^25 kg
