Hello!

A 1350 kg car travels at 12 m/s. What is it's kinetic energy ?

We have the following data:  

m (mass) = 1350 kg  

v (velocity) = 12 m/s  

KE (kinetic Energy) = ? (in Joule)  

Formula to calculate kinetic energy:

\boxed{KE = \dfrac{1}{2} *m*v^2}

Solving:

KE = \dfrac{1}{2} *m*v^2

KE = \dfrac{1}{2} *1350*12^2

KE = \dfrac{1}{2} *1350*144

KE = \dfrac{194400}{2}

\boxed{\boxed{KE = 97200\:Joule}}\:or\:\boxed{\boxed{KE = 97.2\:kJ}}\Longleftarrow(kinetic\:energy)\:\:\:\:\:\:\bf\blue{\checkmark}

What difficulty will you encounter if you only have data from two recording station?
denpristay [2]

<span>If you have only two data from two recording stations then you will be having a hard time finding the correct location of the epicenter. This is because triangulation method requires 3 recording station. If you have 2 recording station, the 2 circles will intersect at 2 points giving you 2 locations that could possibly be the epicenter.</span>

The length of a certain wire is kept same while its radius is doubled. what is the new resistivity of this wire?
anastassius [24]
The text does not specify whether the resistance R of the wire must be kept the same or not: here I assume R must be kept the same.

The relationship between the resistance and the resistivity of a wire is
\rho =  \frac{AR}{L}
where
\rho is the resistivity
A is the cross-sectional area
R is the resistance
L is the wire length

the cross-sectional area is given by
A=\pi r^2
where r is the radius of the wire. Substituting in the previous equation ,we find
\rho =  \frac{\pi r^2 R}{L}

For the new wire, the length L is kept the same (L'=L) while the radius is doubled (r'=2r), so the new resistivity is
\rho' =  \frac{\pi r'^2 R}{L'}= \frac{\pi (2r)^2 R}{L}=4  \frac{\pi r^2 R}{L}   = 4 \rho
Therefore, the new resistivity must be 4 times the original one.

The kinetic energy of a body of mass 15 kg is 30 joule. What is its momentum?
lys-0071 [83]

This problem is a piece o' cake, IF you know the formulas for both kinetic energy and momentum.  So here they are:

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

Momentum = (mass) · (speed)

So, now ... We know that

==> mass = 15 kg,  and

==> kinetic energy = 30 Joules

Take those pieces of info and pluggum into the formula for kinetic energy:

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

30 Joules = (1/2) · (15 kg) · (speed²)

60 Joules = (15 kg) · (speed²)

4 m²/s² = speed²

Speed = 2 m/s

THAT's all you need !  Now you can find momentum:

Momentum = (mass) · (speed)

Momentum = (15 kg) · (2 m/s)

<em>Momentum = 30 kg·m/s</em>

<em>(Notice that in this problem, although their units are different, the magnitude of the KE is equal to the magnitude of the momentum.  When I saw this, I wondered whether that's always true.  So I did a little more work, and I found out that it isn't ... it's a coincidence that's true for this problem and some others, but it's usually not true.)</em>

Consider the image above. Vi = the initial velocity and Vf = the final velocity. Is there acceleration? Explain your answer.
lutik1710 [3]
<span><span>Velocity is a vector, and the initial and final ones are in opposite directions.
There must have been acceleration in order to change the direction of motion.</span>

A) No. The initial and final velocities are the same.
This is all wrong, and not the correct choice.
It's "Yes", and the initial and final velocities are NOT the same.

B) Yes. The ball had to slow down in order to change direction.
This is poor, and not the correct choice.
The "Yes" is correct, but the explanation is bad.
Acceleration does NOT require any change in speed.

C) No. Acceleration is the change in velocity. The ball's velocity is constant.
This is all wrong, and not the correct choice.
It's "Yes", there IS acceleration, and the ball's velocity is NOT constant.

D) Yes. Even though the initial and final velocities are the same, there is a change in direction for the ball.
This choice is misleading too.
The "Yes" is correct ... there IS acceleration.
The change in direction is the reason.
The initial and final velocities are NOT the same.  Only the speeds are.
