A 50 kg bicyclist, traveling at a speed of 12 m/s, applies the brakes, slowing her speed to 3 m/s.

Physics

a) Work done = Net Kinetic Energy

= 1/2 x 50 kg x ((12m/s)^2 - (3m/s)^2)

= 0.5 x 50 Kg x (144 -9)(m/s)^2

= 3375 Kg (m/s)^2

b) Force = mxa

a = 120 N/50 Kg = 2.4 m/s^2

Using newtons third law of motion, we get-

V^2 - U^2 = 2 x a x S

S= (12^2-3^2)m^2/s^2/(2 x 2.4 m/s^2)

= 28.125 m

Define average velocity <br>​
maxonik [38]
Hello! mark me brainliest please

The average speed of an object is defined as the distance traveled divided by the time elapsed. Velocity is a vector quantity, and average velocity can be defined as the displacement divided by the time.

sledge (including load) weighs 5000 N. It is pulled on level snow by a dog team exerting ahorizontal force on it. The coefficient
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

2.5 x 10^{5} J

Explanation:

weight = 5,000 N

coefficient of friction = 0.05

distance = 1000 m

how much work is done by the dogs pulling the sledge

work done = force x coefficient of friction x distance

work done = 5000 x 0.05 x 1000 = 2.5 x 10^{5} J

In one of the classic nuclear physics experiments at the beginning of the 20th century, an alpha particle was accelerated toward
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

= 4.3 × 10 ⁻¹⁴ m

Explanation:

The alpha particle will be deflected when its kinetic energy is equal to the potential energy

Charge of the alpha particle q₁= 2 × 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C = 3.2 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

Charge of the gold nucleus q₂= 79 × 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ = 1.264 × 10⁻¹⁷C

Kinetic energy of  the alpha particle = 5.28 × 10⁶ × 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ J ( 1 eV)

=  8.459 × 10⁻¹³

k electrostatic force constant = 9 × 10⁹ N.m²/c²

Kinetic energy = potential energy =   k q₁q₂ / r where r is the closest distance the alpha particle got to the gold nucleus

r = (  9 × 10⁹ N.m²/c² × 3.2 × 10⁻¹⁹ C × 1.264 × 10⁻¹⁷C) / 8.459 × 10⁻¹³

= 4.3 × 10 ⁻¹⁴ m
