There are no good descriptions or definitions of energy on the list of choices you provided. A big part of the reason for this is that you didn't provide any list of choices.

In Physics, the definition of 'Energy' is '<em>The ability to do work</em>'.

At high speeds, a particular automobile is capable of an acceleration of about 0.540 m/s^2. At this rate, how long (in seconds)

Mama L [17]

Answer:

t = 6.68 seconds

Explanation:

The acceleration of the automobile, $a=0.54\ m/s^2$

Initial speed of the automobile, u = 91 km/hr = 25.27 m/s

Final speed of the automobile, v = 104 km/hr = 28.88 m/s

Let t is the time taken to accelerate from u to v. It can be calculated as the following formula as :

$t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}$

$t=\dfrac{28.88-25.27}{0.54}$

t = 6.68 seconds

So, the time taken by the automobile to accelerate from u to v is 6.68 seconds. Hence, this is the required solution.

As a 15000 kg jet plane lands on an aircraft carrier, its tail hook snags a cable to slow it down. The cable is attached to a sp

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

60 m/s

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of energy,

The kinetic energy of the plane = Energy of store in the spring when the plane lands.

1/2mv² = 1/2ke²

making v the subject of the equation.

v = √(ke²/m).................... Equation 1

Where v = the plane landing speed, k = spring constant, e = extension. m = mass of the plane.

Given: m = 15000 kg, k = 60000 N/m, e = 30 m.

Substitute into equation 1

v = √(60000×30²/15000)

v = √(4×900)

v = √(3600)

v = 60 m/s.

Hence the plane's landing speed = 60 m/s

After the collision the magnitude of the momentum of the system is Mv

Given:

mass of 1st object = M

speed of 1st object = v

mass of 2nd object = M

speed of 2nd object = 0

To Find:

magnitude of the momentum after collision

Solution: Product of the mass of a particle and its velocity. Momentum is a vector quantity; i.e., it has both magnitude and direction. Isaac Newton's second law of motion states that the time rate of change of momentum is equal to the force acting on the particle.

Applying conservation of linear momentum

Mv + M(0) = 2MV

Mv = 2MV

V = v/2

So, after collision momentum is

p = 2MV = 2xMxv/2 = Mv

So, after collision momentum is Mv
