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.

Which list places the layers of the sun in the correct order from innermost to outermost?
LiRa [457]

Answer:

Convective zone, chromosphere, corona

Explanation:

A star like the Sun is divided into different layers according to pressure, density, temperature, and the mechanics of energy transport (in the case of the convective zone and radiative zone) for each of those layers.

In stars, there is an equilibrium between two forces, the force of gravity in the inward direction due to their own mass and the radiation pressure in the upward direction as a consequence of the nuclear reaction in their core, that is known as hydrostatic equilibrium.

That leads to different layers according with the properties described above.    

       

Near the core, in the Sun, there is a radiative zone since radiation is the best mechanism of energy transport in this area. Then, in the next layer, it can be found that convection becomes a more efficient way of energy transport that radiation due to the fact that the inner part of the convection zone is at a greater temperature than the outer one.    

Finally, there is the atmosphere of the Sun (chromosphere, photosphere, and corona).

                                       

Key terms:        

Convection: Transport of energy due to different in density and temperature of a material (liquid, gas).

A horizontal insulating rod of length 11.8-cm and charge 19 nC is in a plane with a long straight vertical uniform line charge.
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

11.962337 × 10^-4 N

Explanation:

Given the following :

Length L = 11.8

Charge = 29nC = 29 × 10^-9 C

Linear charge density λ = 1.4 × 10^-7 C/m

Radius (r) = 2cm = 2/100 = 0.02 m

Using the relation:

E = 2kλ/r ; F =qE

F = 2kλq/L × ∫dr/r

F = 2*k*q*λ/L × (In(0.02 + L) - In(0.02))

2*k*q*λ/L = [2 × (9 * 10^9) * (29 * 10^9) * (1.4 * 10^-7)]/ 0.118] = 6193.2203 × 10^(9 - 9 - 7) = 6193.2203 × 10^-7 = 6.1932203 × 10^-4

In(0.02 + 0.118) - In(0.02) = In(0.138) - In(0.02) = 1.9315214

Hence,

(6.1932203 × 10^-4) × 1.9315214 = 11.962337 × 10^-4 N

.2, A car starting from rest has an acceleration of
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer: 2.5 m/s and 6.25 m

Explanation:

u = 0

a = 0.5 m/s²

t = 5 s

v = u + at

=  0 + 0.5 × 5

= <u>2.5 m/s</u>

s = ut + 1/2 at²

= 1/2 × 2.5 × 5

=<u> 6.25 m</u>

The tires of a car support the weight of a stationary car. If one tire has a slow leak, the air pressure within the tire will __
Kipish [7]

Answer:

The tires of a car support the weight of a stationary car. If one tire has a slow leak, the air pressure within the tire will decrease with time, the surface area between the tire and the road will increase with time, and the net force the tire exerts on the road will be constant with time.

Explanation:

when a wheel has an air leak, it means that the inside of the tire has less air, which means that there will be less air pushing the walls of the tire so that the air pressure decreases.

On the other hand, the tire begins to deform due to lack of air which increases the area of ​​contact with the floor.

As the weight of the car remains constant and the air has a negligible mass the force towards the road will be the same
