Force = 3200 N

Work done = 640, 000 Nm

Explanation:

We begin by calculating the deceleration of the truck, using the velocity and distance;

a = (v² – u²)/2s

whereby;

a = acceleration

v = initial velocity

u = initial velocity

s = distance

We begin by changing the speed from km/h into m/s;

54km/hr = 15m/s

Then acceleration;

a = (0² – 15²) / 2 * 200

a = -225 / 400

a = - 0.5625 m/ s²

To calculate force;

F = ma

Whereby;

F = force

M = mass (in kgs)

a = acceleration

F = 1800 / 0.5625

F = 3200 N

Work done = Force * displacement

Work done = 3200 * 200

= 640, 000 Nm

Doss [256]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

Still-water speed  = 9.5 m/s
River speed = 3.75 m/s down stream.

The velocity of the swimmer relative to the bank is the vector sum of his still-water speed and the speed of the river.

The velocity relative to the bank is
V = √(9.5² + 3.75²) = 10.21 m/s

The downstream angle is
θ = tan⁻¹ 3.75/9.5 = 21.5°

Answer:  10.2 m/s at 21.5° downstream.

In a given chemical reaction, the energy of the products is greater than the energy of the reactants. Which statement is true fo
Flura [38]

Energy is released in the reaction

Explanation:

In a given where the energy of the products is greater than that of the reactants, we can infer that energy is released in the reaction.

This indicates that the reaction is an exothermic or exergonic reaction.

These reaction types are accompanied by release of energy.

  • In an exothermic change energy is released to the surroundings.
  • The surrounding becomes hotter at the end of the change.
  • This applies in exergonic reaction which leaves a reaction having more energy than it originally started with.

What happens when the voltage increases and the resistance stays the same in a electrical circuit?
Orlov [11]

Answer:

The current in the circuit increases

Explanation:

The ohm's law states that the potential across a circuit is proportional to the current in the circuit.

                                             V ∝ I

Where 'V' is the potential difference across the circuit and 'I' is the current in the circuit.

The proportionality constant present in the equation is the resistance of the circuit. Hence, the equation becomes

                                             V = IR

According to the equation, when V is directly proportional to 'I' where 'R' remains as constant, then the change in 'V is brings change in 'I' to make the equation valid.

So, when there is an increase in the voltage, the current on the circuit increases.
