The weight is the force experienced, whereas the mass represents the actual quantity of matter inside a body..
weigh on the surface of the earth is equal to mg
mass is m
and at the centre weight is 0 due to 0 acceleration that's 0 g
but mass is always constant and remains m, no matter where you are

On a straight road, a car speeds up at a constant rate from rest to 20 m/s over a 5 second interval and a truck slows at a const
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

a)

Explanation:

  • Since the car speeds up at a constant rate, we can use the kinematic equation for distance (assuming that the initial position is x=0, and choosing t₀ =0), as follows:

        x_{fc} = v_{o}*t + \frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2}   (1)

  • Since the car starts from rest, v₀ =0.
  • We know the value of t = 5 sec., but we need to find the value of a.
  • Applying the definition of acceleration, as the rate of change of velocity with respect to time, and remembering that v₀ = 0 and t₀ =0, we can solve for a, as follows:

       a_{c} =\frac{v_{fc}}{t} = \frac{20m/s}{5s} = 4 m/s2  (2)

  • Replacing a and t in (1):

       x_{fc} = v_{o}*t + \frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2}  = \frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2} = \frac{1}{2}* 4 m/s2*(5s)^{2} = 50.0 m.  (3)

  • Now, if the truck slows down at a constant rate also, we can use (1) again, noting that v₀ is not equal to zero anymore.
  • Since we have the values of vf (it's zero because the truck stops), v₀, and t, we can find the new value of a, as follows:

       a_{t} =\frac{-v_{to}}{t} = \frac{-20m/s}{10s} = -2 m/s2  (4)

  • Replacing v₀, at and t in (1), we have:

       x_{ft} = 20m/s*10.0s + \frac{1}{2}*(-2 m/s2)*(10.0s)^{2} = 200m -100m = 100.0m   (5)

  • Therefore, as the truck travels twice as far as the car, the right answer is a).

An object that has kinetic energy must what ?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

An object that has kinetic energy must be <em>moving</em>.

The formula for an object's kinetic energy is

KE = (1/2) · (the object's mass) · <u><em>(the object's speed)²</em></u>

As you can see from the formula, if the object has no speed, then its kinetic energy is zero.  That's why kinetic energy is usually called the "energy of motion", and if an object HAS kinetic energy, then that tells you right away that it must be moving.
