A bus is moving and has 500000 joules of kinetic energy. The brakes are applied and the bus stops. How much work is needed to st

op the bus?
Physics

Bad White [126]2 years ago

For the work-energy theorem, the work needed to stop the bus is equal to its variation of kinetic energy:
W=K_f - K_i
where
W is the work
Kf is the final kinetic energy of the bus
Ki is the initial kinetic energy of the bus

Since the bus comes at rest, its final kinetic energy is zero: K_f = 0, so the work done by the brakes to stop the bus is
W=-K_i = -500000 J
And the work done is negative, because the force applied by the brake is in the opposite direction to that of the bus motion.

The oceanic lithosphere is a layer on the Earth's crust that consists of rocks of the mantle.

<h3>What is the lithosphere?</h3>

The lithosphere can be defined as the outer rock layer present on the Earth's surface.

The oceanic lithosphere is composed of different rocks of the mantle such as, among others, gabbro and/or basalt.

The structure of the oceanic lithosphere is similar around the world because it is slender compared to the continental lithosphere and always determined by the supply of magma.

In conclusion, the oceanic lithosphere is a layer on the Earth's crust that consists of rocks of the mantle.
