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.

A cone with diameter 20 cm and a height of 20 cm. Find the volume of the cone rounded to the nearest tenth.
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

2094.4 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cone =πr²h/3

Where

r = radius = Diameter/2

Diameter = 20cm, radius = 20cm/2 = 10cm

Height = 20cm

Volume of a cone = π × 10² × 20/3

Volume of a cone = 2094.3951 cm³

Approximately to the nearest tenth = 2094.4 cm³

Therefore , the volume of a cone = 2094.4 cm³

Camilo estimates the weight of the dog . The veterinarian says that the dog weighs 84 pounds . The percent error in Camillo's es
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

The estimated weight is in the range:

75.6 pounds \leq Weight \leq 92.4 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the maximum error is 10%.

Therefore, the maximum and minimum vales will be 10% more and 10% less than 84 pounds, respectively.

<u>For Maximum Limit</u>:

Weight_{max} = (1.1)(84 pounds)

Weight_{max} = <u>92.4 pounds</u>

<u>For Minimum Limit</u>:

Weight_{min} = (0.9)(84 pounds)

Weight_{min} = <u>75.6 pounds</u>

Hence, the estimated weight is in the range:

75.6 pounds \leq Weight \leq 92.4 pounds
