Answer:
1. The elephant has more kinetic energy at this speed and mass. It has 4,500 J more KE.
2. The elephant would have to go at a speed of 2.5 m/s to reach the same KE as the cheetah.
Explanation:
You would use the formula KE=1/2mv^2.
This formula would be filled in and completed twice, once for the elephant and once for the cheetah.
Cheetah:
KE = 1/2 (40) (25) ^2
KE = 12,500 J
Elephant:
KE = 1/2 (4,000) (2) ^2
KE = 8,000 J
This shows that the cheetah has more KE.
Then you would subtract the elephants amount of J from the cheetahs to find the difference.
Difference = 12,500 J - 8,000 J
Difference = 4,500 J
I hoped this helped with the first part :)
For the second part:
To find the speed the elephant would have to run you would fill in and complete the equation once more with different distance results.
KE = 1/2 (4,000) (2.5) ^2
KE= 12,500 J
Formula: s = d/t
s = speed
d = distance
t = time
Solve using the values we are given.
s = 300/40
s = 7.5m/s
Best of Luck!
Answer:
3.35 seconds
Explanation:
Use one of the equations of accelerated motion:
Δd = v1Δt+1/2aΔt^2
and rearrange for Δt which is time
Δt = √(2Δd)/a
now we can substitute in the values
a= 9.8 (acceleration due to gravity) and Δd= 55 as that is the height of the building
Δt = √(2*55)/9.8
Δt = 3.3503s
A force is a push or pull upon an object resulting from the object's interaction with another object.
Answer:
a) W=12166.20876 J
b) U= -12166.20876 J
Explanation:
No. of moles, n = 8.41
Change of temperature, ΔT = T1 - T2
= 395 - 279
= 116 K
For monatomic gas, γ = 5/3
γ -1 = 2 /3
Solution:
(a)
Work done,
plugging values we get

Ans:
12166.20876 J
Work done, W = + 12166.20876 J
(b)
From first law of thermodynamics, dQ = U + W
but, dQ = 0
( adiabatic process)
Hence, U = - W
= - 12166.20876 J
Ans:
Change in internal energy, U = - 12166.20876 J
