Please help ASAP. A 1550 kg car is initially at rest on level ground when the engine does 450 000 J of work on it. After the car

reaches its top speed, the engine cuts out and the car begins to roll up a hill. If the car continues to roll until its velocity is zero, what final height will it reach?

Answer:

29.6 m

Explanation:

Work is change in KE, and at the bottom of the hill, the car only has KE. Therefore, the car's total mechanical energy (ME) at the bottom of the hill must be equal to its KE (450 000 J). At the top of the hill, the car is no longer moving, so its total energy must be all gravitational potential energy. Following convervation of ME:

ME_{i} = ME_{f}

KE_{i} = GPE_{f}

450 000 J = mgh_{f}

h_{f} = \frac{450 000 J}{m * g}

h_{f} = \frac{450 000 J}{1550 kg * 9.81 m/s^{2} }  = 29.6 m

Identify which best describes the energy used to pluck guitar strings to make sound.
Novay_Z [31]
<span>The correct answer is: Mechanical Energy

Explanation:
As the guitar strings are plunked, the potential energy stored in the strings has an ability to make them vibrate. When the strings are vibrating, that potential energy is actually converted to the kinetic energy. Hence, the whole phenomena contains both the kinetic energy and the potential energy. The sum of kinetic energy and the potential energy is called Mechanical energy. Therefore, the correct answer is Mechanical Energy.</span>

A physicist does 100 joules of work on a simple machine that raise a box of bioks through a heigjt of 0.2metres. if the efficien
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

the work converted to thermal energy is 40 J.

Explanation:

Given;

work done by the physicist,w = 100 J

height through which the book is raised, h = 0.2 m

efficiency of machine = 60% = 0.6

The useful work done by the machine is calculated as;

useful work = 0.6 x 100 = 60 J

The wasted energy = 100 J - 60 J

The wasted energy = 40 J

The wasted energy by the machine is possibly converted to thermal energy by the frictional part of the machine.

Therefore, the work converted to thermal energy is 40 J.

A length of wire is cut into five equal pieces. the five pieces are then connected in parallel, with the resulting resistance be
ycow [4]
The equivalent resistance of resistors connected in parallel is
\frac{1}{R_{eq}} = \frac{1}{R_1} +  \frac{1}{R_2} + ...
In our problem, we have 5 identical resistor of resistance R, so their equivalent resistance is
\frac{1}{R_{eq}} =  5 (\frac{1}{R} )
The problem also says that the equivalent resistance is R_{eq}= 17 \Omega, so we can find the resistance R of each piece of wire:
R=5 R_{eq} = 5 \cdot 17 \Omega = 85 \Omega

In the initial wire, it's like the 5 pieces are connected in series, so the equivalent resistance of the wire is just the sum of the resistances of the 5 pieces:
R_{wire} = 5 R = 5 \cdot 85 \Omega = 425 \Omega
