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

What is the volume of a cone with a height of 27 cm
JulijaS [17]

Explanation:

→ Volume of cone = πr² × h/3

Here,

  • Radius (r) = 13 cm
  • Height (h) = 27 cm

→ Volume of cone = π(13)² × 27/3 cm³

→ Volume of cone = 169π × 9 cm³

→ Volume of cone = 1521π cm³

→ Volume of cone = 1521 × 22/7 cm³

→ Volume of cone = 33462/7 cm³

→ <u>Volume of cone = 4780.28 cm³</u>

A force of 720 Newton stretches a spring 4 meters. A mass of 45 Kilograms is attached to the spring and is initially released fr
poizon [28]

Answer:

x(t) = -3sin2t

Explanation:

Given that

Spring force of, W = 720 N

Extension of the spring, s = 4 m

Attached mass to the spring, m = 45 kg

Velocity of, v = 6 m/s

The proper calculation is attached via the image below.

Final solution is x(t) = -3.sin2t

Nuclear fusion is the process by which multiple nuclei join together to form a heavier nucleus.

Nuclear fusion of light elements releases the energy that causes stars to shine and hydrogen bombs to explode.

Nuclear fusion of heavy elements (absorbing energy) occurs in the extremely high-energy conditions of supernova explosions.

Nuclear fusion in stars and supernovae is the primary process by which new natural elements are created.

It is this reaction that is harnessed in fusion power.

It takes considerable energy to force nuclei to fuse, even those of the lightest element, hydrogen.
