A car has mass 1500 kg and is traveling at a speed of 35 miles/hour. what is its kinetic energy in joules? (Be sure to convert m

iles/hour to m/s). If the car increases its speed to 70 miles/hour, by what factor does its kinetic energy increase? show work

Answer:

Factor by which kinetic energy increase = 4 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

  • Mass of the car, v1 = 1500 kg
  • initial speed of car = 35 miles/h

                               =\dfrac{35\times 1609.34}{3600}\ m/s

                               = 15.64 m/s

Initial kinetic energy of the car is given by,

k_1\ =\ \dfrac{1}{2}.m.v_1^2

       =\ \dfrac{1}{2}\times 1500\times (15.64)^2\ joule

       = 183606.46 J

  • Final velocity of car v2 = 70 miles/hour

                                      =\dfrac{70\times 1609.34}{3600}

                                      = 31.29 m/s

So, final kinetic energy of car is given by

k_2\ =\ \dfrac{1}{2}.m.v_2^2

        =\ \dfrac{1}{2}\times 1500\times (31.29)^2

        = 734425.84 J

Now, the ratio of final to initial kinetic energy can be given by,

\dfrac{k_2}{k_1}=\ \dfrac{734425.84}{183606.46}

=>\ k_2\ =\ 4k_1                      

Hence, the kinetic energy will increase by 4 times.

Liv made punch by mixing 2.8 liters of orange juice, 0.75 liter of pineapple juice,
lana [24]

Answer:

0.95 liter in each container

Step-by-step explanation:

Orange juice=2.8 liters

Pineapple juice=0.75 liter

Ginger ale=1.2 liters

If Liv mix the three ingredients above to make punch and he split the punch into 5 containers, how much punch will be in a container.

Firstly,

Add the three ingredients together.

We have,

2.8 + 1.2 + 0.75=4.75 liters

Next is to divide the total liters by 5

That is,

4.75/5=0.95 liter

Is 1, 15/8, 17/8 a Pythagorean triple? Explain
KatRina [158]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

if they are Pythagorean triples they should check for the theorem

the biggest value 17/8 should be the hypothenuse

(17/8)² = 1² + (15/8)² ; square the numbers

289/ 64 = 1+ 225/ 64 ; find the common denominator for addition

289/ 64 = 64+ 225/ 64 ; add

289/ 64 = 289 /64 TRUE so they are Pythagorean Triples
