Complete the paragraph to describe the relationship between kinetic energy and braking distance. Use . A car moves at a speed of

50 kilometers/hour. Its kinetic energy is 400 joules. If the same car moves at a speed of 100 kilometers/hour, then its kinetic energy will be joules. The braking distance at the faster speed is the braking distance at the slower speed.

Answer:A car moves at a speed of 50 kilometers/hour. Its kinetic energy is 400 joules. If the same car moves at a speed of 100 kilometers/hour, then its kinetic energy will be 1,600 joules. The braking distance at the faster speed is double the braking distance at the slower speed.

7. A mother pushes her 9.5 kg baby in her 5kg baby carriage over the grass with a force of 110N @ an angle

jasenka [17]

Weight of the carriage $=(m+M)g =142.1\ N$

Normal force $=Fsin(\theta) + W = 197.1\ N$

Frictional force $=\mu N=27.59\ N$

Acceleration $=4.66\ m\ s^{-2}$

Explanation:

We have to look into the FBD of the carriage.

Horizontal forces and Vertical forces separately.

To calculate Weight we know that both the mass of the baby and the carriage will be added.

So Weight(W) $=(m+M)\times g =(9.5+5)\ kg \times 9.8 =142.1\ Newton\ (N)$

To calculate normal force we have to look upon the vertical component of forces, as Normal force is acting vertically.We have weight which is a downward force along with $F_x$ , force of $110\ N$ acting vertically downward.Both are downward and Normal is upward so Normal force $=Summation\ of\ both\ forces$

Normal force (N) $= Fsin(\theta)+W=110sin(30) + 142.1 =197.1\ N$

Frictional force (f) $=\mu N=0.14\times 197.1 =27.59\ N$

To calculate acceleration we will use Newtons second law.

That is Force is product of mass and acceleration.

We can see in the diagram that $F_y=Horizontal$ and $F_x=Vertical$ component of forces.

So Fnet = Fy(Horizontal) - f(friction) $= m\times a$

Acceleration (a) = $\frac{Fcos(\theta)-\mu N}{mass(m)} =\frac{(95.26-27.59)}{14.5}= 4.66\ m\ s{^2 }$

So we have the weight of the carriage, normal force,frictional force and acceleration.

A rocket starting from its launch pad is subjected to a uniform acceleration of 100 meters/second2. Determine the time needed to

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

10s

Explanation:

Acceleration is a measure of a rate of change of velocity, or in other words, a measure of how quickly the velocity is changing.

If acceleration is constant, then the velocity is changing by a constant amount.

With an acceleration of 100 m/s^2, starting from the launching pad (and thus, an initial velocity of zero), we can calculate how long it will take to reach a final velocity of 1000m/s with the following formula:

$v=at+v_o$ where "v" is the final velocity at some later time "t", "a" is the constant acceleration, and "v" sub-zero is the initial velocity.

$v=at+v_o$

$(1000\text{ [m/s]})=(100 \text{ } [\text{m/s}^2] )t+(0\text{ [m/s]})$

$1000\text{ [m/s]}=100 \text{ } [\text{m/s}^2] *t$

$\dfrac{1000\text{ [m/s]}}{100 \text{ } [\text{m/s}^2]}=\dfrac{100 \text{ } [\text{m/s}^2] *t}{100 \text{ } [\text{m/s}^2]}$

$10\text{ [s]}=t$

So, it will take 10 seconds for the rocket to reach 1000m/s when starting from the launching pad, with a constant velocity of 100m/s^2.

<u>Verification:</u>

In this situation, it is quick to verify that 10 seconds is correct by looking at what the velocities will be each second.

Recognizing that the acceleration is $a=\dfrac{100 [\frac{m}{s}]}{1[s]}$ , the velocity increases by 100 units [m/s] every second.

At time 0[s], the velocity is 0[m/s]

At time 1[s], the velocity is 100[m/s]

At time 2[s], the velocity is 200[m/s]

At time 3[s], the velocity is 300[m/s]

At time 4[s], the velocity is 400[m/s]

At time 5[s], the velocity is 500[m/s]

At time 6[s], the velocity is 600[m/s]

At time 7[s], the velocity is 700[m/s]

At time 8[s], the velocity is 800[m/s]

At time 9[s], the velocity is 900[m/s]

At time 10[s], the velocity is 1000[m/s]

So, indeed, after 10 seconds, the velocity reaches 1000 m/s

A 0.950 kg block is attached to a spring with spring constant 16.0 N/m . While the block is sitting at rest, a student hits it w

Bumek [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass attached m = 0.95kg

Spring constant k = 16N/m

Instantaneous speed v = 36cm/s = 0.36m/s

Amplitude A=?

When x = 0.7A

Using conservation of energy

∆K.E + ∆P.E = 0

K.E(final) — K.E(initial) + P.E(final) — P.E(initial) = 0

At the beginning immediately the hammer hits the mass, the potential energy is 0J, Therefore, P.E(initial) = 0J, so the speed is maximum.

Also, at the end, at maximum displacement, the speed is zero, therefore, K.E(final) = 0

So, the equation becomes

— K.E(initial) + P.E(final) = 0

K.E(initial) = P.E(final)

½mv² = ½kA²

mv² = kA²

0.95 × 0.36² = 16×A²

0.12312 = 16•A²

A² = 0.12312/16

A² = 0.007695

A = √0.007695

A = 0.088 m

A = 8.8cm

B. Speed at x = 0.7A

Using the same principle above

K.E(initial) = P.E(final)

½mv² = ½kA²

Where A = 0.7A = 0.7 × 0.088 = 0.0614m

Then,

½× 0.95 × v² = ½ × 16 × 0.0614²

0.475v² = 0.0310644

v² = 0.0310644/0.475

v² = 0.0635

v = √0.0635

v = 0.252 m/s

v = 25.2 cm/s

Electricity costs 6 cents per kilowatt hour. In one month one home uses one megawatt hour of electricity. How much will the elec

Luda [366]

Answer:

Cost of 1000 kilowatt hour = 6000 cents

Explanation:

Given that

Electricity cost is 6 cents per kilowatt hour.

And we have to found out the cost for one megawatt hour

We know that

1 kilowatt = 1000 watt

1 megawatt = = 1000000 watt

1 megawatt = 1000 kilowatt

1 megawatt hour = 1000 kilowatt hour

Given that cost of 1 kilowatt hour = 6 cents

So the cost of 1000 kilowatt hour = 6 x 1000 cents

Cost of 1000 kilowatt hour = 6000 cents

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

d= 7.32 mm

Explanation:

Given that

E= 110 GPa

σ = 240 MPa

P= 6640 N

L= 370 mm

ΔL = 0.53

Area A= πr²

We know that elongation due to load given as

$\Delta L=\dfrac{PL}{AE}$

$A=\dfrac{PL}{\Delta LE}$

$A=\dfrac{6640\times 370}{0.53\times 110\times 10^3}$

A= 42.14 mm²

πr² = 42.14 mm²

r=3.66 mm
