Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy acquired due to the motion of an object.

Mathematically,         kinetic energy = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

where                 m = mass

                           v = velocity

Therefore, kinetic energy depends on the mass and square of velocity. Hence, more is the mass of an object more will be its velocity.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, train will have more mass as compared to other objects, therefore, train will have highest kinetic energy.

The greatest amount of kinetic energy is found with the train because it takes most energy to reach that velocity and also to slow down to a halt.

scoray [572]

Answer:

a) 31.4 m/s

b) 50.2 m

Explanation:

a) When an object is free falling, its speed is determined by the gravity force giving it acceleration. Equation for the velocity of free fall started from the rest is:

v = g • t

g - is gravitational acceleration which is 9.81 m/s^2, sometimes rounded to 10

t - is the time of free fall

So:

v = 9.81 m/s^2 • 3.2

v = 31.4 m/s ( if g is rounded to 10, then the velocity is 10 • 3.2 = 32 m/s)

b) To determine the distance crossed in free fall we use the equation:

s = v0 + gt^2/2

v0 - is the starting velocity (since object started fall from rest, its v0 is 0)

s = gt^2/2

s = 9.81 m/s^2 • 3.2^2 / 2

s = 50.2 m (if we round g to 10 then the distance is 10 • 3.2^2/2 = 51.2 meters)

When you take your 1900-kg car out for a spin, you go around a corner of radius 55 m with a speed of 15 m/s. The coefficient of
pentagon [3]

Answer:

7772.72N

Explanation:

When u draw your FBD, you realize you have 3 forces (ignore the force the car produces), gravity, normal force and static friction. You also realize that gravity and normal force are in our out of the page  (drawn with a frame of reference above the car). So that leaves you with static friction in the centripetal direction.

Now which direction is the static friction, assume that it is pointing inward so

Fc=Fs=mv²/r=1900*15²/55=427500/55=7772.72N

Since the car is not skidding we do not have kinetic friction so there can only be static friction. One reason we do not use μFn is because that is the formula for maximum static friction, and the problem does not state there is maximum static friction.
