What determines whether or not work is being done?

1 answer:

3 0

C is the correct answer but the best possible answer is that work is done when a force is imposed on an object and the object moves in the same direction as the force

Hope this helps!

Car A hits car B (initially at rest and of equal mass) frombehind while going 35 m/s. Immediately after the collision, car Bmove

kolezko [41]

Answer:

The fraction of kinetic energy lost in the collision in term of the initial energy is 0.49.

Explanation:

As the final and initial velocities are known it is possible then the kinetic energy is possible to calculate for each instant.

By definition, the kinetic energy is:

k = 0.5*mV^2

Expressing the initial and final kinetic energy for cars A and B:

$ki=0.5*maVa_{i}^2+0.5*mbVb_{i}^2$

$kf=0.5*maVa_{f}^2+0.5*mbVb_{f}^2$

Since the masses are equals:

$m=ma=mb$

For the known velocities, the kinetics energies result:

$ki=0.5*mVa_{i}^2$

$ki=0.5*m(35 m/s)^2=612.5m^2/s^2*m$

$kf=0.5*mbVb_{f}^2$

$kf=0.5*m(25 m/s)^2=312.5m^2/s^2*m$

The lost energy in the collision is the difference between the initial and final kinectic energies:

$kl=ki-kf$

$kl = 612.5m^2/s^2*m-312.5 m^2/s^2*m=300 m^2/s^2*m$

Finally the relation between the lost and the initial kinetic energy:

$kl/ki = 300 m^2/s^2 * m / 612.5 m^2/s^2 * m$

$kl/ki = 24/49=0.49$

A car of m = 1200. kg collides with a tree while traveling 60.0 mph. The collision occurs over a time period of 0.0500 seconds.

MrRissso [65]

You may know linear momentum is given by P= mass.velocity. Initially car is moving with some velocity so you know initial momentum of the car. Finally it comes to rest i.e final momentum of the car is 0. According to Newton's second law : Force = change in momentum /time. Applying this you'll get answer as 642840N. Hope it helped you. Revert back to me if you have any questions. Please check out the calculation it might be wrong!
