a 1430 kg car speeds up from 7.50 m/s to 11.0 m/s in 9.30 s. Ignoring friction, how much power did that require?

Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed²)

Original KE = (1/2) (1430 kg) (7.5 m/s)²  =  40,218.75 joules

Final KE  =  (1/2) (1430 kg) (11.0 m/s)²  =   86,515 joules

Work done during the acceleration = (40218.75 - 86515) = 46,296.25 joules

Power = work/time = 46,296.25 joules / 9.3 sec  =  4,978.1 watts .
_______________________________

One interesting thing to notice while you're (I'm) solving this problem
is the fact that although the car's speed only increased by about 47%,
its kinetic energy more than doubled ... increased by about 115%. 
That's because kinetic energy is proportional to the SQUARE of the
speed.

Answer: A voltmeter must have a high resistance where as an ammeter must have a low resistance.

Explanation:

A voltmeter is a device which is connected in parallel to the component across which voltage needs to be measured. In a parallel circuit voltage drop is same at the nodes. The parallel connection must not offer easier path for current to divert from the main circuit and travel. Thus, a voltmeter must have high resistance.

On the other hand, an ammeter which is used to measure current in the circuit must have low resistance as it is connected in series. It should not offer resistance as it would reduce the actual current and measurement would be inaccurate.

Micah knows that a car had a change in velocity of 15 m/s. What does micah need to determine acceleration.
katrin2010 [14]
The time component is needed. The acceleration is the change of velocity divided by the time in when this change of velocity happens.

A bicyclist travels $4.5\text{ km}$ west, then travels $6.7\text{ km}$ at an angle $27.0^\circ$ South of West.
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

10.88 km

Explanation:

We shall represent displacement in terms of i , j  unit vectors in the direction of east and north .

4.5 km due west

D₁ = - 4.5 i

6.7 km at an angle of 27° south of west

D₂ = - 6.7 cos27 i - 6.7 sin27j

= - 6.7 x .89 i - 6.7 x .45 j

= - 5.96i - 3 j

Total displacement

= D₁ + D₂

=  - 4.5 i - 5.96i - 3 j

= -10.46 i - 3j

Magnitude = √ ( 10.46² + 3²)

= √ ( 109.41 + 9)

= √ 118.41

= 10.88 km .
