A 2000-kg car decelerated from 10 m/s to 5 m/s. What is the work done on the car ?

Known :

Car’s mass (m) = 2000 kg

Initial speed (vo) = 10 m/s

Final speed (vt) = 5 m/s

Wanted: net work

Solution :

Net work :

Wnet= ΔEK

Wnet = ½ m (vt2 – vo2)

Wnet = ½ (2000)(52 – 102)

Wnet = (1000)(25 – 100)

Wnet = (1000)(-75)

Wnet = -75,000 Joule

The minus sign indicates that the direction of displacement is opposite with the direction of the net force.

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

(a). Energy is 64,680 J

(b) velocity is 51.43m/s

(c) velocity in mph is 115.0mph

Explanation:

(a).

The potential energy P of the payload of mass m is at a vertical distance h is  

P =mgh.

Therefore, for the payload of mass m = 50kg at a vertical distance of h = 132 m, the potential energy is

P = (50kg)(9.8m/s^2)(132m)

\boxed{P = 64,680J}

(b).

When the payload reaches the bottom of the shaft, all of its potential energy is converted into its kinetic energy; therefore,

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

v= \sqrt{2gh}

v = \sqrt{2*9.8*135}

\boxed{v = 51.43m/s}

(c).

The velocity in mph is

\dfrac{51.43m}{s} * \dfrac{3600s}{hr} * \dfrac{1mile}{1609.34m}

\boxed{v= 115.0mph}

A device that uses electricity and magnetism to create motion is called a _________motor,magnet,generator . In a reverse process
lawyer [7]
A device that uses electricity and magnetism to create motion is called a "Motor" (which converts electric energy into mechanical energy) & <span>In a reverse process, a device that uses motion and magnetism can be used to create "Electromagnetism".

In short, 1st Blank = Motor
2nd Blank = Electromagnetism 

Hope this helps!</span>

Using monochromatic light of 410 nm wavelength, a single thin slit forms a diffraction pattern, with the first minimum at an ang
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

c. 307 nm

Explanation:

angular position of first dark fringe =  λ / d ,   λ is wavelength and  d is width of slit .

(40 x π ) / 180 = 410 / d

angular position of second  dark fringe =  2 x λ / d ,   λ is wavelength and  d is width of slit .

(60 x π ) / 180 = 2 x λ / d

Dividing these equations

60 / 40 =  2 x λ / 410

λ = 307.5 nm.

An ion in a mass spectrometer follows a semicircular path of radius 14.8. What is the distance it travels?
aleksklad [387]

The circumference of a circle is (2π · the circle's radius).

The length of a semi-circle is  (1π · the circle's radius) =

                                                 (π · 14.8) = 46.5 (rounded)

(The unit is the same as whatever the unit of the  14.8  is.)
