<span>Answer: 1st, identify the givens and the unknown - this will give you parameter of what concept and formula are you going to use. Given: m= 1200kg v initial = 95km/hr v final = 0 2nd, focus on the units - in most cases units speak for the concept the unit of the unknown is kcal, thus its the unit of energy or work so, W = ? 3rd, provide the appropriate formula - give formula or equation that the given and the unknown are present since W = delta K.E =delta P.E W= 0.5m( vf^2 - vi^2) ---> best formula 4th, Substitute the given to the formula since 1 Joule = 1Nm 1N = 1kgms^-2 1cal = 4.19 J we express first 95 km/hr to m/s 95km/hr x 1000m/1km x 1hr/3600sec = 26.39 m/sec W= 0.5(1200kg)[(0^2- (26.39m/sec)^2] W=600 kg(0 - 696.43m^2/s^2) W=600kg(-696.43m^2/s^2) W=417859.3Nm or 417859.3 J W = 417859.3 J x 1 cal /4.19 J W = 99,727.7 cal or 99.728 kcal</span>

13. You push with 56 N on a 15-kg box, and there is a 23-N force of friction. How fast will the box accelerate?
Flura [38]

Answer:

The acceleration is 2.2 m/s^2

Explanation:

In the attached image, we can see the free body diagram. And using the second law of Newton it will be possible to find the acceleration of the box.

A centrifuge is a device used to separate materials by their masses. A sample in a centrifuge is rotated at high speeds along a
german

Answer:

 F = 1.047 10⁻² N

Explanation:

Let's use kinematics to find the angular acceleration

             w = w₀ + α t

as for rest w₀ = 0

             w = α t

             α = w / t

let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

              w = 1000 rev / min (2π rad/ 1 rev) (1 min/ 60s) = 104.72 rad / s

              m = 1.00 g (1 kg / 1000 g) = 1,000 10⁻³ kg

              r = 10.0 cm (1 m / 100 cm) = 0.100 m

let's calculate

              α = 104.72 / 1

              α = 104.72 rad / s²

angular and linear variables are related

               a = α  r

               a = 104.72 0.100

               a = 10.47 m / s²

finally we substitute in Newton's second law

               F = 1 10⁻³ 10.47

               F = 1.047 10⁻² N

A motorcycle traveling at 25 m/s accelerates at a rate of 6 m/s2 for 4 seconds. What is the final speed of the motorcycle in m/s
givi [52]

Initial velocity = Vo= 25 m/s

Final velocity = V = x

Acceleration= a = 6 m/s^2

time= t = 4 seconds

Appy the equation:

V = Vo + at

Replacing:

V = 25 + 6(4) = 25 + 24 = 49 m/s

7 the density of the american white oak tree is 752 kilograms per cubic meter. if the trunk of an american white oak tree has a
alexdok [17]

First, we determine the volume of the trunk by finding first the radius from the circumference through the equation,

<span>                                                            C = 2πr</span>

<span>                                                            r = C/2π</span>

Substituting the known values,

<span>                                                            r = 4.5/2π = 0.716 m</span>

Then, we calculate for the volume through the equation,

<span>                                                            V = πr2h</span>

<span>                                                V = π(0.716 m)2(8m) = 12.9 m3</span>

Multiplying the calculated value to the density will give the mass as,

<span>                                                Mass = (12.9 m3)(752 kg/m3) = <span>9699.36 kg</span></span>
