An older-model car accelerates from 0 to speed v in 9.0 s. A newer, more powerful sports car of the same mass accelerates from 0

to 3v in the same time period. Assuming the energy coming from the engine appears only as kinetic energy of the cars, compare the power of the two cars. (Take Pnew and Pold as the powers of the new car and old car, respectively.)

Answer:The new car has 9 times the power of the old car

Explanation:

Given data

old car

Mass =m

Velocity =v

Time to attain the velocity t= 9secs

New car

Mass =m (same as old car)

Velocity =3v

Time to attain the velocity t= 9secs

We know that the kinetic energy expression is given as

KE=1/2mv²

KE for old car =1/2mv²J

KE for new car =1/2m(3v)²

=1/2m9v²J

Now the expression for power is

P= energy *time

Pold = 1/2mv²*9

4.5(mv²)Hp

Pnew = 1/2m*9v²*9

1/2m*81*v²

40.5(m*v²)Hp

Now comparing the powers of both cars

Pnew/Pold =40.5mv²/4.5mv²

Pnew/Pold = 9

An object with a mass of 25 kg object is moving at 30 m/s. What is the
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer: 750 kgm/s

Explanation:

Mass of object = 25 kg

Speed by which object moves =30 m/s. Linear momentum of the object = ?

Since momentum refers to the quantity of motion of the moving object,

Linear momentum = Mass x Speed

= 25kg x 30m/s

= 750 kgm/s

Thus, the linear momentum of the object is 750 kgm/s

Based on what you have just read, what are the advantages of storing music digitally compared to using an analog system?
melamori03 [73]

Storing music digitally requires less storage room than analog records or tapes. Digital music is easier to copy and the copies are the same as the original. The quality of the signal does not degrade over long periods of time.

How long can you keep open beer in the fridge?
Gre4nikov [31]
You can keep it for as long as you want; you're the boss of your fridge. 
But anyway, an open beer bottle can stay good in the fridge for up to 96 hours, probably more.
