Answer:
70.6 mph
Explanation:
Car A mass= 1515 lb
Car B mass=1125 lb
Speed of car B is 46 miles/h
Distance before locking, d=19.5 ft
Coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.75
Initial momentum of car B=mv where m is mass and v is velocity in ft/s
46 mph*1.46667=67.4666668 ft/s
Initial momentum of car A is given by
where is velocity of A
Taking East as positive and west as negative then the sum of initial momentum is
The common velocity is represented as hence after collision, the final momentum is
From the law of conservation of linear momentum, sum of initial and final momentum equals each other hence
The acceleration of two cars
From kinematic equation
hence
Substituting the value of in equation
The average kinetic energy of a gas particle is directly proportional to the temperature. An increase in temperature increases the speed in which the gas molecules move. All gases at a given temperature have the same average kinetic energy. Lighter gas molecules move faster than heavier molecules.
Energy is calculated as power*time, so give the wattage of 1200 W (equivalent to 1200 Joules/second) and time of 30 seconds, multiplying these gives 36000 J or 36 kJ of electrical energy.
If electrical charge or current is needed: Power = voltage * current, so given the power of 1200 watts and voltage of 120 V, current is 1200 W / 120 V = 10 Amperes. Charge is calculated by multiplying 10 A*30 s = 300 C.
