A truck with a mass of 1.5 x 103 kg accelerates to a speed of 18.0 m/s in 12.0 s from a dead stop. Assume that the force of resi

stance is a constant 400.0 N during the acceleration. What is the average power developed by the truckÍs engine?

There are several information's already given in the question. Based on those information's the answer can be easily deduced.
Mass of the truck = <span>1.5 x 10^3 kg
Constant force of resistance = 400 N
Final Velocity = 18 m/s
Initial velocity = 0 m/s
Time taken = 12 s
Then
Acceleration = (Final velocity - initial velocity)/Time
                     = 18 /12
                     = 3/2
                     = 1.5 m/s^2
Then
Driving force = Mass * Acceleration
                     = 1.5 * 10^3 * 1.5
                     = 2250 N
So
Net Force = 2250 - 400
                 = 1850 N
Average power developed = 1850 * 18
                                           = 3.33 * 10^4 W</span>

Power = Net Force x velocity
Net force = driving force - force of resistance
Driving force = mass x acceleration
Acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time
Acceleration = (18 - 0) / 12 = 1.5 m/s²
Driving force = 1.5 x 10³ x 1.5
= 2250 N
Net force = 2250 - 400
= 1850
Power = 1850 x 18
= 3.33 x 10⁴ Watts

If the toy car weighs 250g and has a kinetic energy of 2.0 J, what is its velocity
sergejj [24]

Explanation:

Kinetic energy (J) = 2j

mass= 250g

velocity=?

1kg=1000g

mass= 250/1000

mass=0.25kg

Kinetic energy (J) = ½ x mass (kg) x [velocity]² (m/s)

2=1/2 × 0.25× [velocity]²

2=0.125× [velocity]²

[velocity]² = 2/0.125

[velocity]²=16

velocity= (16)^1/2

velocity= 4 m/s
