Because 'acceleration' does NOT mean 'speeding up'. 
It means ANY change in motion ... speeding up, slowing down,
or changing DIRECTION.

When traveling a roundabout, or any curved path, the direction
is constantly changing even if the speed is constant, so there is
constant acceleration going on.

What is the internal energy of 4.50 mol of N2 gas at 253°C? To solve this
Finger [1]

The internal energy of the gas is 49,200 J

Explanation:

The internal energy of a diatomic gas, such as N_2, is given by

U=\frac{5}{2}nRT

where

n is the number of moles

R is the gas constant

T is the absolute temperature of the gas

For the gas in this problem, we have:

n = 4.50 (number of moles)

R = 8.31 J/(mol·K) (gas constant)

T=253^{\circ} + 273 = 526 K (absolute temperature)

Substituting, we find:

U=\frac{5}{2}(4.50)(8.31)(526)=49,200 J

Imagine a 10kg block moving with a velocity of 20m/s to the left.
lara31 [8.8K]
Kinetic energy , KE= [1/2]m*v^2

m = 10 kg
v=20m/s

KE = [1/][(10kg)(20m/s)^2 = [1/2](10kg)(400m^2/s^2) = 2000 joule

Answer: 2000 joule
