Car A has twice the mass of Car B; both travel at the same speed. Compared to Car B. Car A has:
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

Car A has twice the energy of car B.

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object is given by :

K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Where

m is the mass

v is the speed of the object

Car A has twice the mass of Car B. Both travel at the same speed i.e.

m_A=2m_B

So,

\dfrac{K_A}{K_B}=\dfrac{(1/2)m_Av^2}{(1/2)m_Bv^2}\\\\=\dfrac{2m_B}{m_B}\\\\\dfrac{K_A}{K_B}=2\\\\K_A=2\times K_B

So, the kinetic energy of car A is twice of the kinetic energy of car B.

Two movers are pushing a large crate with a force of 60.0 n each. one pushes north, the other east. what is the equilibrant forc
romanna [79]
To get the solution you must need to draw a force triangle. Attach the head of the 60N north force arrow with the tail of the 60N east force arrow. The subsequent is the arrow connecting he tail and head of the two arrows. 
You get a right angled triangle, and the resultant is (60^2 + 60^2) ^0.5 = 84.85 N or 85 N northeast.
