Which vehicle has the LEAST kinetic energy? 18-wheeler, minivan, car, or bike?

Physics

We can make pretty good guesses for their masses, but kinetic energy also depends on their speeds, which we don't know, and may change.

As an example ... If the truck, the van, the car, and the bike are all parked at the mall, then a scampering mouse has more kinetic energy than all of them combined.

As the question stands, no answer is possible.

A bag of sugar weighs 5.00 lb on Earth. What would it weigh in newtons on the Moon, where the free-fall acceleration is one-sixt

Answer:

Earth: 22.246 N

Moon: 3.71 N

Jupiter: 58.72 N

Explanation:

The mass of an object will remain constant in any location, its weight however, can fluctuate depending on its location. For example, a golf ball will weigh less on the moon, but its mass will not be different if it was on earth.

To calculate anything, we need to convert to standard measurements.

5.00 lbs = 2.27 kg

On earth, gravity is measured to be 9.8 m/s², so the weight in Newtons on Earth would be: (2.27 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 22.246 N

Repeated on the moon where gravity is (9.8 m/s²) x (1/6) = 1.633 m/s², so the weight in Newtons on the moon would be: (2.27 kg) x (1.633 m/s²) = 3.71 N

Repeated on Jupiter where gravity is (9.8 m/s²) x (2.64) = 25.87 m/s², so the wight in Newtons on Jupiter would be: (2.27 kg) x (25.87 m/s²) = 58.72 N

Is light fastest than speed and why.
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

There is no limit to how fast the universe can expand, says physicist Charles Bennett of Johns Hopkins University. Einstein's theory that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light in a vacuum still holds true, because space itself is stretching, and space is nothing.

Alisiya [41]
ONE CAN perform this by doing an ideal experiment
by creating an isothermal system
its like you supply heat to a body and that body is present at very low temperature the amount of heat you supply is equal to the amount of heat lost by that body due to difference in the temperature of the body and the surrounding. heating curve will be constant as there is no change in the internal energy of the system ..
