What is the kinetic energy of a 1 kg pie traveling at a speed of 4 m/s?
Veronika [31]
We have: K.E. = mv² / 2
Here, m = 1 Kg
v = 4 m/s

Substitute their values in the formula, 
K.E. = 1×4² / 2
K.E. = 16/ 2
K.E. = 8 J

Finally, answer of your question would be 8 Joules.

Hope this helps!

A car is traveling at an average speed of 70 m/s. How many km would the car travel in 6.5 hrs. ?
docker41 [41]

Answer:

<h2>38,769.23 miles</h2>

Explanation:

given:

A car is traveling at an average speed of 70 m/s.

find:

How many km would the car travel in 6.5 hrs. ?

solution:

distance = velocity over time

let velocity = 70 m/s

           time = 6.5 hrs.

convert velocity 70 m/s into m/h for consistency of units.

<u>70 mi. </u> x   <u>3600 sec.</u>  =  252,000 mi/hour

  sec.          1 hr.

now plugin values into the formula d = v/t

d = <u>252,000 miles/hour </u>

              6.5 hours

d = 38,769.23 miles

therefore, the distance travelled in 6.5 hours with a speed of 70 m/s is 38,769.23 miles

A proton is released in a uniform electric field, and it experiences an electric force of 2.04×10−14 N toward the south.
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Part A:

E=127500N/C\\E=1.275*10^{5} N/C

Part B:

Option B (Towards the South)

Explanation:

Part A:

Magnitude if electric field E:

E=Force/charge

Force=2.04×10−14 N

Charge=1.6×10−19 C

E=\frac{2.04*10^{-14}}{1.6*10^{-19}} \\E=127500N/C\\E=1.275*10^{5} N/C

Part B:

Option B (Towards the South)

As electron is experiencing the force towards south,it means the direction of the electric field is towards the south because direction of field lines is from positive to negative, so proton is moving towards south it means negative charge is in south to which proton is attracted. So electric field is towards South.
