Answer:
(a) 7.72×10⁵ J
(b) 4000 J
(c) 1.82×10⁻¹⁶ J
Explanation:
Kinetic Energy: This can be defined energy of a body due to its motion. The expression for kinetic energy is given as,
Ek = 1/2mv²................... Equation 1
Where Ek = Kinetic energy, m = mass, v = velocity
(a)
For a moving automobile,
Ek = 1/2mv².
Given: m = 2.0×10³ kg, v = 100 km/h = 100(1000/3600) m/s = 27.78 m/s
Substitute into equation 1
Ek = 1/2(2.0×10³)(27.78²)
Ek = 7.72×10⁵ J
(b)
For a sprinting runner,
Given: m = 80 kg, v = 10 m/s
Substitute into equation 1 above,
Ek = 1/2(80)(10²)
Ek = 40(100)
Ek = 4000 J
(c)
For a moving electron,
Given: m = 9.10×10⁻³¹ kg, v = 2.0×10⁷ m/s
Substitute into equation 1 above,
Ek = 1/2(9.10×10⁻³¹)(2.0×10⁷)²
Ek = 1.82×10⁻¹⁶ J
Time = (distance) / (speed)
Time = (150 x 10⁹ m) / (3 x 10⁸ m/s) =
50 x 10¹ sec =
<em>500 sec</em> = 8 min 20 sec
Answer:
The length at the final temperature is 11.7 cm.
Explanation:
We need to use the thermal expansion equation:

Where:
- L(0) is the initial length
- ΔT is the differential temperature, final temperature minus initial temperature (T(f)-T(0))
- ΔL is the final length minus the initial length (L(f)-L(0))
- α is the coefficient of linear expantion of steel (12.5*10⁻⁶ 1/°C)
So, we have:



Therefore, the length at the final temperature is 11.7 cm.
