Calculate the kinetic energy of an 86-kg scooter moving at 18 m/s?

K.E. = (1/2)mv^2

K.E. = (1/2)86 * 18^2

K.E. = (Answer Unit) =====> J

M = 86kg

V = 18 m/s

Significant Figures ======> 6

Answer: ======> KE = 13932 J

Show work:

1/2 * 86 * 18^2

(1/2)86 * 18^2

Remove Parenthesis:

a = a

1/2 * 86 * 18^2

Multiply Fractions:

a * b/c = a * b/c

= 1 * 86 * 18^2/2

Multiply the numbers:

1 * 86 = 86

18^2 * 86/2

Divide the numbers:

86/2 = 43

18^2 * 43

18^2 = 324

43 * 324

Multiply the numbers:

43 * 324

13932

Therefore, Your answer is KE = 13932 J

Hope that helps!!!! : ) sorry for the long explanation!!!

Alright, to begin with. The unit of Force is in Newtons. Meaning the first two options are out of the answers. Now in order to find the force. You will need to take the mass and multiply that by the acceleration. Which will give you 26.75 Newtons.

A horizontal beam of light of intensity 25 W/m2 is sent through two polarizing sheets. The polarizing direction of the first mak

Zina [86]

Answer:

option (B)

Explanation:

Intensity of unpolarised light, I = 25 W/m^2

When it passes from first polarisr, the intensity of light becomes

$I'=\frac{I_{0}}{2}=\frac{25}{2}=12.5 W/m^{2}$

Let the intensity of light as it passes from second polariser is I''.

According to the law of Malus

$I'' = I' Cos^{2}\theta$

Where, θ be the angle between the axis first polariser and the second polariser.

$I'' = 12.5\times Cos^{2}15$

I'' = 11.66 W/m^2

I'' = 11.7 W/m^2

An experimental tungsten light bulb filament has a length of 5 cm and a diameter of 0.074 cm. The filament is basically just a w

adell [148]

Answer:

power emitted is 1.75 W

Explanation:

given data

length l = 5 cm = 5 × $10^{-2}$ m

diameter d = 0.074 cm = 74 × $10^{-5}$ m

total filament emissivity = 0.300

temperature = 3068 K

to find out

power emitted

solution

we find first area that is π×d×L

area = π×d×L

area = π×74 × $10^{-5}$ ×5 × $10^{-2}$

area = 1162.3892 × $10^{-5}$ m²

so here power emitted is express as

power emitted = E × σ × area × (temperature)^4

put here all value

power emitted = 0.300× 5.67 × 1162.3892 × $10^{-5}$ × (3068)^4

power emitted = 1.75 W

Describe an application where a parallel circuit might work better than a series circuit

babunello [35]

In rooms where there are multiple lights, a parallel circuit is better.

In a series circuit, if one light broke, all of the lights would turn off, as the circuit would be broken.

However, in parallel, if one bulb broke, the circuit could still be complete through the other bulbs, so they will stay on.
