An asteroid with a mass of 5.0 x 105 kg collides with the Earth and slides horizontally along the ground without bouncing (not a

ctually possible but just pretend). The velocity of the asteroid before impact is 1.1 x 104 m/s and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the asteroid and the Earth is 1.80.
How much energy is lost due to friction between the asteroid and the Earth after the asteroid has come to rest?

The strength of the friction doesn't matter. Neither does the distance or the time the asteroid takes to stop. All that matters is that the asteroid has

1/2 (mass) (speed squared)

of kinetic energy when it lands, and zero when it stops.
So

1/2 (mass) (original speed squared)

is the energy it loses to friction in order to come to rest.

Velocity can best be described by which of the following statements?
pogonyaev

Answer: Velocity can best be described as, the speed in a given direction.

Explanation: To find the answer, we need to know more about the Velocity of a body.

<h3>What is Velocity of a body?</h3>
  • Velocity is the rate of change of displacement.
  • It's a vector quantity and is measured in m/s.
  • It can be positive, negative or zero.
  • A body is said to be in uniform motion, then its velocity remains constant.
  • Change in velocity can be a change in speed.
  • The magnitude of velocity is less than or equal to speed.

Thus, we can conclude that, the option C is best describing velocity.

If an object force of 50 N is used to move an object a distance of 20 m, what distance must the object be moved if the input for
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

\ d_{out} = 100 \ m.

Explanation:

Given data:

F_{in} = 50 \ \rm N

F_{out} = 10 \ \rm N

d_{in} = 20 \ m

Let the distance traveled by the object in the second case be d_{out}.

In the given problem, work done by the forces are same in both the cases.

Thus,

W_{in} = W_{out}

F_{in}.d_{in} = F_{out}.d_{out}

\Rightarrow \ d_{out} = \frac{F_{in}.d_{in}}{F_{out}}

\ d_{out} = \frac{50 \times 20}{10}

\ d_{out} = 100 \ m.
