A funnel shaped cloud is called a funnel cloud.
If it touches the ground it is called a tornado.

Suppose a moving car has 2000 J of kinetic energy. If the carʹs speed doubles, how much kinetic energy would it then have?

Bond [772]

Answer:

option A

Explanation:

given,

Kinetic energy of the car = 2000 J

speed of the car is doubled

we know,

$KE_1 = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

$2000= \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$ ........(1)

now, speed of the car is doubled

v' = 2 v

$KE_2 = \dfrac{1}{2}mv'^2$

$KE_2 = \dfrac{1}{2}m(2v)^2$

from equation (1)

$KE_2 = 4\times \dfrac{1}{2}m(v)^2$

$KE_2 = 4\times 2000$

$KE_2 = 8000\ J$

Hence, the Kinetic energy would be equal to 8000 J.

The correct answer is option A.

A sled is pulled with a horizontal force of 18 n along a level trail, and the acceleration is found to be 0.39 m/s2. an extra ma

Natali5045456 [20]

From Newton's second law of motion, it is identified that the net force applied to the object with mass m, will make it move with an acceleration of a. This can be mathematically translated as,
F = m x a
To solve for the mass of the sled, we derive the equation above such that,
m = F / a
Substituting,
m = (18 N) / (0.39 m/s²)
m = 46.15 kg

Then, we add to the calculated mass the mass of the extra material.
total mass = 46.15kg + 4.5 kg
total mass = 50.65 kg
We solve for the normal force of the surface to the object by calculating its weight.
F₂ = (50.65 kg)(9.8 m/s²)
F₂ = 496.41 N

The force that would allow barely a movement for the object is equal to the product of the normal force and the coefficient of kinetic friction.
F = (F₂)(c)
c = F/F₂

Substituting,
c = 18 N/496.41 N
c = 0.0362

<em>ANSWER: c = 0.0362</em>

Valentin [98]

Answer:

ωf = 4.53 rad/s

Explanation:

By conservation of the angular momentum:

Ib*ωb = (Ib + Ic)*ωf

Where

Ib is the inertia of the ball

ωb is the initial angular velocity of the ball
