Answer:
(c) position
Explanation:
From the work-energy theorem, the workdone by a force on a body causes a change in kinetic energy of the body.
But, remember that the work done (W) by a force (F) on a body is the product of the force and the distance d, moved by the body caused by the force. i.e
W = F x d
This distance is a measure of the position of the body at a given instance.
Therefore, the work done is given by the force as a function of distance (or position).
Answer:
energy is equal to 1000 J
Explanation:
When the jumper is in the tent, he has a given height, this height gives him a gravitational potential energy, which forms his initial mechanical energy of 1000 J. After jumping, this energy is converted into elastic energy of the rope plus a remainder of potential energy gravitational, it does not reach the ground, but as the friction is negligible the total mechanical energy is conserved, therefore its energy is equal to 1000 J
This is a case of energy transformation, but the total value of mechanical energy does not change
2.71 m/s fast Hans is moving after the collision.
<u>Explanation</u>:
Given that,
Mass of Jeremy is 120 kg (
)
Speed of Jeremy is 3 m/s (
)
Speed of Jeremy after collision is (
) -2.5 m/s
Mass of Hans is 140 kg (
)
Speed of Hans is -2 m/s (
)
Speed of Hans after collision is (
)
Linear momentum is defined as “mass time’s speed of the vehicle”. Linear momentum before the collision of Jeremy and Hans is
= 
Substitute the given values,
= 120 × 3 + 140 × (-2)
= 360 + (-280)
= 80 kg m/s
Linear momentum after the collision of Jeremy and Hans is
= 
= 120 × (-2.5) + 140 × 
= -300 + 140 × 
We know that conservation of liner momentum,
Linear momentum before the collision = Linear momentum after the collision
80 = -300 + 140 × 
80 + 300 = 140 × 
380 = 140 × 
380/140= 
= 2.71 m/s
2.71 m/s fast Hans is moving after the collision.
Answer:
15 m/s
Explanation:
Speed(m/s) = distance(m)/time(s)
distance = 216 km = 216,000 m
time = 4 hours = 14,400 s
speed = 216000/14400 = 15 m/s
