     The Mechanical Energy is given by the sum of the all energies of the system.

E_m=E_c+E_p \\ E_m=5.2+3.5 \\ \boxed {E_m=8.7~J}

you have been called to testify as a as an expert witness in a trial involving a head-on collision Car A weighs 1515 pounds and
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

70.6 mph

Explanation:

Car A mass= 1515 lb

Car B mass=1125 lb  

Speed of car B is 46 miles/h

Distance before locking, d=19.5 ft

Coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.75

Initial momentum of car B=mv where m is mass and v is velocity in ft/s  

46 mph*1.46667=67.4666668 ft/s

Momentum_B=1125*67.4666668 ft/s

Initial momentum of car A is given by

Momentum_A=1515v_a where v_a is velocity of A

Taking East as positive and west as negative then the sum of initial momentum is

1515v_a-(1125*67.4666668 ft/s)

The common velocity is represented as v_c hence after collision, the final momentum is

Momentum_final=(m_a+m_b)v_c=(1515+1125)v_c=2640v_c

From the law of conservation of linear momentum, sum of initial and final momentum equals each other hence

1515v_a-(1125*67.4666668 ft/s)= 2640v_c

The acceleration of two cars a=-\mug=-0.75*32.17=-24.1275 ft/s^{2}

From kinematic equation

v^{2}=u^{2}+2as hence

v^{2}-u^{2}=2as

0^{2}-(v_c)^{2}=2*-24.1275*19.5

v_c=\sqrt{2*24.1275*19.5}=30.67 ft/s

Substituting the value of v_c in equation 1515v_a-(1125*67.4666668 ft/s)= 2640v_c

1515v_a-(1125*67.4666668 ft/s)= 2640*30.67

1515v_a=(1125*67.4666668 ft/s)+2640*30.67

v_a=\frac {156868.8}{1515}=103.5438 ft/s

\frac {103.5438}{1.46667}=70.59787 mph\approx 70.60 mph

There is a refrigerator running in a room, the heat flowing into the refrigerator from the outside is 40 J/s, and the refrigerat
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

(A) 140 j/sec (b) 1.26 K

Explanation:

We have given the heat heat flowing into the refrigerator = 40 J/sec

Work done = 40 W

(a) So the heat discharged from the refrigerator =heat\ flowing\ in\ refrigerator+work\ done=40+100=140j/sec

(b) Total heat absorbed =140 j/sec =140\times 3600=504000j/hour

Let the temperature be \Delta T

Heat absorbed per hour =504000 [tex]=400\times 10^3\times \Delta T

So  \Delta T=\frac{504000}{400000}=1.26K

irina [24]

All the boats operating at night requires Navigation light.

Navigation light helps prevent collisions between boats and see if visibility is poor. The types of boat are : Rowboats, Tug boats, Vessels, Sailboat etc.

Various boats have different lightning color to show its use and side of the boat.

A boy throws a ball up into the air with a speed of 8.2 m/s. The ball has a mass of 0.3 kg. How much gravitational potential ene
diamong [38]
We can use the law of conservation of energy to solve the problem.

The total mechanical energy of the system at any moment of the motion is:
E=U+K = mgh + \frac{1}{2}mv^2
where U is the potential energy and K the kinetic energy.

At the beginning of the motion, the ball starts from the ground so its altitude is h=0 and therefore its potential energy U is zero. So, the mechanical energy is just kinetic energy:
E_i = K_i =  \frac{1}{2}mv^2 =  \frac{1}{2}(0.3 kg)(8.2 m/s)^2=10.09 J

When the ball reaches the maximum altitude of its flight, it starts to go down again, so its speed at that moment is zero: v=0. So, its kinetic energy at the top is zero. So the total mechanical energy is just potential energy:
E_f = U_f
But the mechanical energy must be conserved, Ef=Ei, so we have
U_f = K_i
and so, the potential energy at the top of the flight is
U_f = K_i = 10.09 J
