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.

Solve xy - 3 = k solve for x
ladessa [460]

Answer:

x=(k+3)/y

Step-by-step explanation

First, we simplify by adding 3 to both sides of the equation

xy-3+3=k+3

Now it's xy=k+3

To get x we divide both sides by y

So x=(k+3)/y

Amy gets a new kennel for her dog. A sketch of the kennel is shown here. If the roof is in the shape of a triangular prism (bott
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

<em>Surface area of the roof of the kennel, including the bottom face is 58.96 ft^2</em>

<em></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The image is attached below

For the triangular sides of the roof, area is

A = \frac{1}{2}bh

where b is the base = 4 ft

h is the vertical height = 2.24 ft

A =  \frac{1}{2}*4*2.24 = 4.48 ft^2

for the two faces we have 2 x 4.48 ft^2 = <em>8.96 ft^2</em>

For the rectangular sections of the roof, area is

A = lh

where l is the length of the rectangle = 5 ft

h is the height of the rectangle = 3 ft

A = 5 x 3 = 15 ft^2

For the two rectangular faces, we have 2 x 15 ft^2 = <em>30 ft^2</em>

<em></em>

For the bottom face, area is

A = lw

where l is the length of the house = 5 ft

w is the width of the house = 4 ft

A = 5 x 4 = <em>20 ft^2</em>

<em></em>

Surface area of the roof of the dog kennel is

<em>8.96 ft^2 + 30 ft^2 + 20 ft^2 = 58.96 ft^2</em>

How much do I have to deposit today in order to have $5000 in 5 years if interest is 8.5% compounded annually?
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

PV= $3,402.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following formula:

Future Vale (FV)= $5,000

Number of years (n) 5 years

Interest rate (i)= 8.5% compounded annually

<u>To calculate the initial investment (PV), we need to use the following formula:</u>

PV= FV / (1 + i)^n

PV= 5,000 / (1.085^5)

PV= $3,402.9
