<h2>Answer</h2>

option D)

2.4 seconds

<h2>Explanation</h2>

Given in the question,

mass of car = 1200kg

speed of car = 19m/s

Force due to direction of travel

F = ma

  = 12000(a)

Force to due frictional force in reverse direction

-F = mg(friction coefficient)

   = -12000(9.81)(0.8)

<h2>-mg(friction coefficient) = ma  </h2>

(cancelling mass from both side of equation)

g(0.8) = a

(9.81)(0.8) = a

a = 7.848 m/s²

<h2>Use Newton Law of motion</h2><h3>vf - vo = a • t</h3>

where vf = final velocity

          vo = initial velocity

          a = acceleration

           t = time

0 - 19 = 7.8(t)

t = 19/7.8

  = 2.436 s

  ≈ 2.4s

Work done = 0.5*m*[(v2)^2 - (v1)^2]
where m is mass,
v2 and v1 are the velocities.

Given that m = 1.50 x 10^3 kg, v2 = -15 m/s (decelerates), v1 = 25 kg,

Work done = 0.5 * 1.50 x 10^3 * ((-15)^2 - 25^2) = 3 x 10^5 joules

Just ignore the negative value for the final result because work is a scalar quantity.

A weightlifter presses a 200 N weight 0.5 m over his head in 2 s. What is the power of the weightlifter
icang [17]

Answer:

50 watts

Explanation:

Applying,

Power (P) = Workdone (W)/Time(t)

But,

Work done (W) = Force (F)×distance(d)

Therefore,

P = Fd/t..................... Equation 1

Where P =  power of the weightlifter, F = Force applied, d = distance, t = time.

From the question,

Given: F = 200 N, d = 0.5 m, t = 2 s

Substitute these values into equation 1

P = (200×0.5)/2

P = 100/2

P = 50 watts

In order to create a charged object, you need to ________.
Brums [2.3K]
In order to create a charged object you need to transfer electrons either away or to the object by induction, conduction, or friction

Induction is without contact(like bringing a charged object to a electroscope charges the leaves at the bottom)
Conduction is with contact(like the previous answer, wore touching transfers the charge from a source to the object)
Friction(rubbing a balloon on wool)
