<h3><u>Question</u><u>:</u></h3>
A racing car is travelling at 70 m/s and accelerates at -14 m/s^2. What would the car’s speed be after 3 s?
<h3><u>Statement:</u></h3>
A racing car is travelling at 70 m/s and accelerates at -14 m/s^2.
<h3><u>Solution</u><u>:</u></h3>
- Initial velocity (u) = 70 m/s
- Acceleration (a) = -14 m/s^2
- Time (t) = 3 s
- Let the velocity of the car after 3 s be v m/s
- By using the formula,
v = u + at, we have

- So, the velocity of the car after 3 s is 28 m/s.
<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>
The car's speed after 3 s is 28 m/s.

Answer:
0.114 kg or 114 g
Explanation:
From the diagram attaches,
Taking the moment about the fulcrum,
sum of clockwise moment = sum of anticlockwise moment.
Wd = W'd'
Where W = weight of the mass, W' = weight of the meter rule, d = distance of the mass from the fulcrum, d' = distance of the meter rule.
make W' the subject of the equation
W' = Wd/d'................ Equation 1
Given: W = mg = 0.0515(9.8) = 0.5047 N, d = (39.2-16) = 23.2 cm, d' = (49.7-39.2) = 10.5 cm
Substitute these values into equation 1
W' = 0.5047(23.2)/10.5
W' = 1.115 N.
But,
m' = W'/g
m' = 1.115/9.8
m' = 0.114 kg
m' = 114 g
Answer:
<em>Both kinetic energies are equal</em>
Explanation:
<u>Kinetic Energy
</u>
Is the type of energy of an object due to its state of motion. It's proportional to the mass and the square of the speed.
The equation for the kinetic energy is:

Where:
m = mass of the object
v = speed of the object
The kinetic energy is expressed in Joules (J)
There are two cars:
Car (A) with mass ma=500 kg and speed va= 2 m/s
Car (B) with mass mb=20,000 gr and speed vb= 10 m/s
Calculate the kinetic energy of both cars:



To calculate the Kb, the mass must be expressed in kg:
mb=20,000/1,000 =20 Kg



Both kinetic energies are equal
