<span>Copernicus decided this with more of an educated guess than anything. For example is when your standing right next to a plane it's huge Right? Well when it's flying it looks really small. He used the same reasoning for stars. Since it looks small it must be farther away.</span>

Calculate the kinetic energy in joules of a 1200 kg automobile moving at 18 m/s .
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

194,400 joules of kinetic energy.

Explanation:

Remember that to calculate the Kinetic energy you need to use the next formula:

Ke=\frac{1}{2}Mass*Velocity^2

We know that Mass= 1200 kg and velocity is 18m/s, so we insert those values into the formula:

Ke=\frac{1}{2}Mass*Velocity^2\\Ke=\frac{1}{2}1200kg*(18m/s)^2\\Ke=194,400 joules

So the kinetic energy of a car moving at 18m/s with a mass of 1200 kg would be 194,400 joules.

The traffic on the freeway is moving at a constant speed of 24 m/sm/s. What distance does the traffic travel while the car is mo
ExtremeBDS [4]

Incomplete question as there is so much information is missing.The complete question is here

A car sits on an entrance ramp to a freeway, waiting for a break in the traffic. Then the driver accelerates with constant acceleration along the ramp and onto the freeway. The car starts from rest, moves in a straight line, and has a speed of 24 m/s (54 mi/h) when it reaches the end of the 120-m-long ramp. The traffic on the freeway is moving at a constant speed of 24 m/s. What distance does the traffic travel while the car is moving the length of the ramp?

Answer:

Distance traveled=240 m

Explanation:

Given data

Initial velocity of car v₀=0 m/s

Final velocity of car vf=24 m/s

Distance traveled by car S=120 m

To find

Distance does the traffic travel

Solution

To find the distance first we need to find time, for time first we need acceleration

So

(V_{f})^{2}=(V_{o})^{2}+2aS\\  So\\a=\frac{(V_{f})^{2}-(V_{o})^{2} }{2S}\\ a=\frac{(24m/s)^{2}-(0m/s)^{2} }{2(120)}\\a=2.4 m/s^{2}

As we find acceleration.Now we need to find time

So

V_{f}=V_{i}+at\\t=\frac{V_{f}-V_{i}}{a}\\t=\frac{(24m/s)-(0m/s)}{(2.4m/s^{2} )}\\t=10s

Now for distance

So

Distance=velocity*time\\Distance=(24m/s)*(10s)\\Distance=240m
