Most of the energy will be absorbed by the materials that make up the cars, causing them to deform. The energy will also be converted into sound energy, causing a loud bang upon collision. Also, some energy will be converted to thermal energy, which will cause the cars to heat up slightly.
Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
a) The initial velocity (u) = 24 m/s
We can solve this problem using the formula:
v² = u² - 2gh
where v = final velocity, g= acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s², h = height.
At maximum height, the final velocity = 0 m/s
v² = u² - 2gh
0² = 24² - 2(9.8)h
2(9.8)h = 24²
2(9.8)h = 576
19.6h = 576
h = 29.4 m
b) The time taken to reach the maximum height is given as:
v = u - gt
0 = 24 - 9.8t
9.8t = 24
t = 2.45 s
The total time needed for the apple to return to its original position = 2t = 2 * 2.45 = 4.9 s
Answer:
691200 J
Explanation:
From specific heat capacity,
ΔQ = cmΔt.................. Equation 1
Where ΔQ = increase in thermal energy, c = specific heat capacity of the body, m = mass of the man, Δt = rise in temperature.
Given: c = 3.6 kJ/kg.°C = 3600 J/kg.°C, m = 96 kg, Δt = 39-37 = 2 °C.
Substitute into equation 1
ΔQ = 3600×96×2
ΔQ = 691200 J.
Hence the change in the thermal energy of the body = 691200 J
Answer:1) the total distance is the sum of the two distances
60 km + 45 km = 105 km
2) The displacement is the net movement, or the difference between the initial position and the final position
Call x the initial position, then the final position is x + [60km - 45km]
And the displacement is x + (60km - 45km) - x =60km -45 km = 15 km
Explanation:
Answer:
Q = 114895 J
Explanation:
To find the thermal energy gained by the ice you use the following formula:

m: mass of the ice = 0.250kg
T2: final temperature = 22°C
T1: initial temperature = -8.0°C
Hf: heat of fusion of water = 3.34*10^5 J/kg
c: specific heat of water = 4186 J/kg
By replacing the values of the parameters you have:

where you have considered that ice melts completely
