The driver of a 810.0 kg car decides to double the speed from 23.6 m/s to 47.2 m/s. What effect would this have on the amount of

work required to stop the car, that is, on the kinetic energy of the car? KEi= × 105 J KEf= × 105 J times as much work must be done to stop the car.

Answer:

  • KEi = 2.256×10^5 J
  • KEf = 9.023×10^5 J
  • 4 times as much work

Step-by-step explanation:

The kinetic energy for a given mass and velocity is ...

  KE = (1/2)mv^2 . . . . . m is mass

At its initial speed, the kinetic energy of the car is ...

  KEi = (1/2)(810 kg)(23.6 m/s)^2 ≈ 2.256×10^5 J . . . . . m is meters

At its final speed, the kinetic energy of the car is ...

  KEf = (1/2)(810 kg)(47.2 m/s)^2 ≈ 9.023×10^5 J

The ratio of final to initial kinetic energy is ...

  (9.023×10^5)/(2.256×10^5) = 4

4 times as much work must be done to stop the car.

_____

You know this without computing the kinetic energy. KE is proportional to the square of speed, so when the speed doubles, the KE is multiplied by 2^2 = 4.

Can someone help me with these two questions?
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

17) A(-1,1) B(-1,4) C(5,1)

18) (From origin moving rightwards)

     A(0,0) B(a, 0) C(a,a) D(0,a)

Step-by-step explanation:

17) You just count the steps, how many steps left, right, up, or down

18) The first point is at the origin, so 0,0

    The second point that lies on the x axis is (a,0) as it is a distance from the origin, 0 because it's on the x-axis.

     The third point is (a,a) because it is a distance to the right of the origin AND a distance upwards from the x axis.

      The fourth point (0,a) because it is on the vertical line (0) and is a distance above the origin.
