A bike rider approaches a hill with a speed of 8.5 m/s. The total mass of the bike rider is 91kg. What is the kinetic energy of

Anestetic [448]

a) The kinetic energy (KE) of an object is expressed as the product of half of the mass (m) of the object and the square of its velocity (v²):

$KE = \frac{1}{2}m* v^{2}$

It is given:

v = 8.5 m/s

m = 91 kg

So:

$KE= \frac{1}{2}*91*8.5^{2} =3,287.4J$

b) We can calculate height by using the formula for potential energy (PE):
PE = m*g*h

In this case, h is eight, and PE is the same as KE:
PE = KE = 3,287.4 J

m = 91 kg

g = 9.81 m/s² - gravitational acceleration

h = ? - height

Now, let's replace those:

3,287.4= 91 * 9.81 * h

⇒ h = 3,287.4/(91*9.81) = 3,287.4/892.7 = 3.7 m

A man does 4,475 J of work in the process of pushing his 2.50 103 kg truck from rest to a speed of v, over a distance of 26.0 m.

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

a) 1.89 m/s b) 172.1 N

Explanation:

a)

Applying the work-energy theorem, if we can neglect the friction between truck and road, the total change in kinetic energy must be equal to the work done by the external forces.
This work, is just 4,475 J.
So we can write the following equation:

$\Delta K = \frac{1}{2} * m*v^{2} = 4,475 J$

where m= mass of the truck = 2.5*10³ kg.
So, we can find the speed v, as follows:

$v =\sqrt{\frac{2*W}{m}} =\sqrt{\frac{2*4,475J}{2.5e3kg} } = 1.89 m/s$

b)

The work done by the man, is just the horizontal force applied, times the displacement produced by the force horizontally:

$W = F*d$

We can solve for F, as follows:

$F = \frac{W}{d} = \frac{4,475 J}{26.0m} = 172.1 N$

Both slicing a tomato and a chemical change such as burning toast cannot be reversed. however why is slicing a tomato sill consi

kondaur [170]

Slicing a tomato is still considered a physical change because you are only altering the shape of it by slicing it. It does not change color or make bubble when slicing the tomato. Therefore, it is still a physical change
hope this helps:)
