Answer:
The answer to your question is: total energy = 30100.4 J
Explanation:
Kinetic energy (KE) is the energy due to the movement of and object, its units are joules (J)
Data
mass = 1280 kg
speed = 4.92 m/s
Force = 509 N
distance = 28.7 m
Formula
Work = Fd
Process
- Calculate Kinetic energy
- Calculate work
- Add both results
KE =
KE = 15492.1 J
Work = (509)(28.7)
Work = 14608.3 J
Total = 15492.1 + 14608.3
Total energy = 30100.4 J
Answer:
A. potential energy is 258720 Joule
Explanation:
A.Gravitational potential energy is: PE = m × g × h
velocity = 15.33 m/s when the car reaches the bottom of the hill.
where, m = mass
g = acceleration due to gravity
h = height from the bottom of hill.
The potential energy is : m×g×h
=(2200×9.8×12)
=258720 Joule
B. at the bottom of the hill, the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy so PE at top = KE at bottom
kinetic energy= (
)
where v = velocity
m= mass
therefore, v=
or, v=
or, v=15.33 m/s
