P= work/time and work is = to force x distance so its 500x4 =2000joules
and 2000/4 =500 watts

Is there a such thing as an elastic collision? Why do we study the case of the elastic collision in Physics?

fredd [130]

Yes there is an elastic collision in physics its when a collision occurs but no kinetic energy is loss. We study them in order to understand how to conserve momentum.

A 0.2 kg block sliding on a horizontal table slows down from 25 m/s to 20 m/s. How much energy does the block lose due to fricti

Papessa [141]

Answer:

the kinetic energy lost due to friction is 22.5 J

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the block, m = 0.2 kg

initial velocity of the block, u = 25 m/s

final velocity of the block, v = 20 m/s

The kinetic energy lost due to friction is calculated as;

$\Delta K.E= K.E_f - K.E_i\\\\\Delta K.E= \frac{1}{2}mv^2 - \frac{1}{2}mu^2\\\\\Delta K.E= \frac{1}{2}m(v^2 -u^2)\\\\\Delta K.E= \frac{1}{2} \times 0.2 (20^2 - 25^2)\\\\\Delta K.E= -22.5 \ J$

Therefore, the kinetic energy lost due to friction is 22.5 J

Define these terms about speed and state their units speed distance covered time taken

Neporo4naja [7]

Explanation:

Speed is the rate of change of distance with time. It is a scalar quantity with magnitude both no direction.

Speed = $\frac{distance}{time}$

The unit is m/s or km/hr or mile/hr

Distance covered is simply the length of the path traveled.

The unit is m or km or miles

Time taken is the duration of an event.

The unit is seconds or minutes or hour.
