How many kilocalories are generated when the brakes are used to bring a 1200-kg car to rest from a speed of 95 km/h ? 1 kcal = 4

timofeeve [1]

<span>Answer: 1st, identify the givens and the unknown - this will give you parameter of what concept and formula are you going to use. Given: m= 1200kg v initial = 95km/hr v final = 0 2nd, focus on the units - in most cases units speak for the concept the unit of the unknown is kcal, thus its the unit of energy or work so, W = ? 3rd, provide the appropriate formula - give formula or equation that the given and the unknown are present since W = delta K.E =delta P.E W= 0.5m( vf^2 - vi^2) ---> best formula 4th, Substitute the given to the formula since 1 Joule = 1Nm 1N = 1kgms^-2 1cal = 4.19 J we express first 95 km/hr to m/s 95km/hr x 1000m/1km x 1hr/3600sec = 26.39 m/sec W= 0.5(1200kg)[(0^2- (26.39m/sec)^2] W=600 kg(0 - 696.43m^2/s^2) W=600kg(-696.43m^2/s^2) W=417859.3Nm or 417859.3 J W = 417859.3 J x 1 cal /4.19 J W = 99,727.7 cal or 99.728 kcal</span>

A cannon, positioned on a hill, shoots a cannonball horizontally at 23 m/s. The cannonball hits the stone wall 1.96 m below the

irina [24]

Answer: 14. 49 m

Explanation:

We can solve this problem with the following equations:

$x=V_{o} cos \theta t$ (1)

$y-y_{o}=V_{o} sin \theta t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$ (2)

Where:

$x$ is the horizontal distance between the cannon and the ball

$V_{o}=23 m/s$ is the cannonball initial velocity

$\theta=0\°$ since the cannonball was shoot horizontally

$t$ is the time

$y=0$ is the final height of the cannonball

$y_{o}=1.96 m$ is the initial height of the cannonball

$g=9.8 m/s^{2}$ is the acceleration due gravity

Isolating $t$ from (2):

$t=\sqrt{-\frac{2(y-y_{o})}{g}}$ (3)

$t=\sqrt{-\frac{2(0 m-1.96 m)}{9.8 m/s^{2}}}$ (4)

$t=0.63 s$ (5)

Substituting (5) in (1):

$x=(23 m/s) cos(0\°) 0.63 s$ (6)

Finally:

$x=14.49 m$

3. What is the difference between Synthetic Oil, Semi-Syntheic oil (Blend), High milage motor oil, and conventional motor oil?

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

When evaluating synthetic blends, it's helpful to define the terms “synthetic blend” and “semi-synthetic”. Generally speaking, synthetic blends and semi-synthetic refer to the same thing: an oil that uses a combination of conventional and synthetic base oils in its formulation.

Answer:

a. The angular frequency is doubled.

e. The period is reduced to one-half of what it was.

Explanation:

Angular frequency is given as;

ω = 2πf
