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!!!

You drop a pencil from your desk, which is 1 meter above the floor. How long does it take for the pencil to hit the floor? How f
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

1. 0.45 s.

2. 4.41 m/s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height (h) = 1 m

Time (t) =?

Velocity (v) =?

1. Determination of the time taken for the pencil to hit the floor.

Height (h) = 1 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =?

h = ½gt²

1 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

1 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.8

t² = 1/4.9

Take the square root of both side

t = √(1/4.9)

t = 0.45 s.

Thus, it will take 0.45 s for the pencil to hit the floor.

2. Determination of the velocity with which the pencil hit the floor.

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) = 0.45 s.

Final velocity (v) =?

v = u + gt

v = 0 + (9.8 × 0.45)

v = 0 + 4.41

v = 4.41 m/s

Thus, the pencil hit the floor with a velocity of 4.41 m/s

If the torque required to loosen the nut that is holding a flat tire in a place on a car has a magnitude of 35 N•m what minimum
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer: F = 130 N

Explanation: Solution:

Convert first 27 cm to m.

27 cm  x 0.01 m / 1 cm = 0.27 m

Calculate the torque using T = Fd

Derive to find force F

F = T /d

  = 35 N.m / 0.27 m

  = 130 N
