A 12-pack of Omni-Cola (mass 4.30 kg) is initially at rest ona horizontal floor. It is then pushed in a straight line for1.20 m

by a trained dog who exerts ahorizontal force with magnitude 39.0N.
(a) Use the work-energy theorem to find the final speedof the 12-pack if there is no friction between the 12-pack and thefloor.

Answer:

a)  W = 46.8 J  and b)   v = 3.84 m/s

Explanation:

The energy work theorem states that the work done on the system is equal to the variation of the kinetic energy

    W = ΔK = k_{f} -K₀

a) work is the scalar product of force by distance

    W = F . d

Bold indicates vectors. In this case the dog applies a force in the direction of the displacement, so the angle between the force and the displacement is zero, therefore, the scalar product is reduced to the ordinary product.

    W = F d cos θ

    W = 39.0 1.20 cos 0

    W = 46.8 J

b) zero initial kinetic language because the package is stopped

    W -W_{fr} = k_{f} -K₀

    W - fr d= ½ m v² - 0

    W - μ N d = ½ m v

   on the horizontal surface using Newton's second law

     N-W = 0

     N = W = mg

 

     W - μ mg d = ½ m v

    v² = (W -μ mg d) 2/m  

    v = √(W -μ mg d) 2/m

    v = √[(46.8 -  0.30 4.30 9.8 1.20) 2/4.3 ]

    v = √(31.63 2/4.3)

    v = 3.84 m/s

There are a few reasons that one teams could win. It depends if the on of the  teams has a better grip on the rope or not or maybe one off the teams has more friction between the ground and there shoes. So really it no matter what one of the teams will win.

A 25,000 kg traveling east collides with a 2,000 kg truck standing still on the tracks. After the collision the train and truck
Elis [28]

Answer:

24.084 m/s

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of linear momentum

Total momentum before collision equals to the total momentum after collision

Since momentum=mv where m is mass and v is velocity

M_{truck}V_{truck}=V_{common}*(M_{truck} +M_{standing}) where M_{truck} is the mass of the truck, V_{truck} is velocity of the truck, V_{common} is the common velocity of moving and standing truck after collision and M_{standing} is the mass of the standing truck

Making V_{truck} the subject we obtain

V_{truck}=\frac { V_{common}*(M_{truck} +M_{standing})}{M_{truck}}

Substituting M_{truck} as 25000 Kg, V_{common} as 22.3 m/s, M_{standing} as 2000 Kg we obtain

V_{truck}=\frac { 22.3 m/s *(25000 Kg +2000 Kg)}{25000}= 24.084 m/s

Therefore, assuming no friction and considering that after collision they still move eastwards hence common velocity and initial truck velocities are positive

The truck was moving at 24.084 m/s

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

1440 m

Explanation:

Speed = Distance/Time

Distance = Speed × Time

               = 120 × 12

               = <u>1440m</u>

If a person throws a wiffle ball and a tennis ball with the same speed, which object would travel with more kinetic
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

The tennis ball will have more kinetic energy

Explanation:

It will have more kinetic energy because the tennis ball is more heavier than a wiffle ball. Furthermore, objects that are heavy will have more kinetic energy than objects that are light. Therefore, the tennis ball is the correct answer.
