The recycling of glass, plastic, and metal would highly reduce the amount of the waste being sent to the local landfill. The large plastic container, fiberboards, etc, are removed by hand for this. This sorting makes it easy to recycle and reuse the plastic and fiber materials.

A 1569 kg car moves with a velocity of 15 m/s. What is its kinetic energy? Joules
Crank
Kinetic energy = 1/2 * mass * velocity^2

In this case,
KE = 1/2 * 1569 kg * (15 (m/s))^2 = 176,5 kN

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

<em>T</em><em>he value of work being done on the object is 958J.</em>

Explanation:

<em>Work</em><em> done</em><em> </em><em>is </em><em>equal</em><em> to</em><em> </em><em>force</em><em> </em><em>multiply</em><em> by</em><em> </em><em>distance,</em><em> </em><em>but </em><em>when</em><em> </em><em>the </em><em>angle</em><em> </em><em>is </em><em>between</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>force</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>distance</em><em> </em><em>work</em><em> </em><em>done=</em><em>Force</em><em> (</em><em>cos</em><em> </em><em>theta)</em><em> </em><em>×</em><em> </em><em>distance</em>

<em>Work</em><em> done</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>Force(</em><em>cos </em><em>theta</em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>×</em><em> </em><em>distance</em>

<em>Work</em><em> done</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>5</em><em>N</em><em>(</em><em>cos </em><em>4</em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>0</em><em>°</em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>×</em><em> </em><em>5</em><em>0</em><em>m</em>

<em>Work</em><em> done</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>5</em><em>N</em><em>(</em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>7</em><em>6</em><em>6</em><em>0</em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>×</em><em> </em><em>5</em><em>0</em><em>m</em>

<em>Work</em><em> done</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>19.15N </em><em>×</em><em> </em><em>5</em><em>0</em><em>m</em>

<em>Work</em><em> done</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>957.5J </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>9</em><em>5</em><em>8</em><em>J</em>

<em>T</em><em>herefore</em><em> the</em><em> </em><em>value</em><em> of</em><em> </em><em>work</em><em> </em><em>being</em><em> </em><em>done </em><em>on </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>object</em><em> </em><em>is </em><em>9</em><em>5</em><em>8</em><em>J</em><em>.</em>

Suppose your vehicle is moving 12m/s as it crosses the 7m line. It took 6 seconds to get to the 7m line. What was its accelerati
Inga [223]

Answer:

3.61 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

v = 12 m/s

x = 7 m

x₀ = 0 m

t = 6 s

Find:

a

x = x₀ + vt - ½ at²

7 m = 0 m + (12 m/s) (6 s) - ½ a (6 s)²

a = 3.61 m/s²

A friend on skis stands still on level ground, with dry 0.00°C with a coefficient of static friction of 0.0300. How hard would y
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

20.6 N

Explanation:

Friction equals normal force times coefficient of friction.

F = Fn μ

On level ground, normal force equal weight.

Fn = W

Therefore:

F = W μ

F = (685 N) (0.0300)

F = 20.6 N
