Answer:
Explanation:
PE = mgh = 2.0(9.8)(1.2) = 23.52 ≈ 24 J
Translation kinetic energy is defined as the energy of a system due to the motion of the system’s...center of mass
KE = ½mv² = ½(45)(1800/600)² = 202.5 ≈ 203 J
Answer:
When truck is at rest while student is under motion
Explanation:
Since it is obvious that the mass of a truck is more than that of a student, we know that momentum is a product of mass and velocity
P=mv where m represent mass, v is velocity. When the student has more speed than that of truck, he exerts more momentum. The only way a student can exert more momentum is by having more speed while the truck is at rest. In such case, the momentum of truck will be zero while momentum of student will have a value
Acceleration is any change in speed or direction of motion.
The dimension of speed is [length/time],
so a change is [length/time²].
Popular units include [meter/second²] and [feet/second²] .
________________________
Direction almost always boils down to an angle, (which technically
has no dimensions), so a change in direction is [angle/time] .
Popular units include [radian/second] and [degree/second] .
Newton's 2nd law of motion:
Force = (mass) x (acceleration)
= (1,127 kg) x (6 m/s² forward)
= (1,127 x 6) newtons forward
= 6,762 newtons forward
______________________________
Momentum = (mass) x (speed)
= (69 kg) x (6 m/s)
= 414 kg-m/s
