Well the obvious you will crash literally
The rate of acceleration of the crate would be 1 m/s^2 because the equation for force is F=ma and when you plug in your numbers you get 10=10a so a=1
Complete question is:
A 1200 kg car reaches the top of a 100 m high hill at A with a speed vA. What is the value of vA that will allow the car to coast in neutral so as to just reach the top of the 150 m high hill at B with vB = 0 m/s. Neglect friction.
Answer:
(V_A) = 31.32 m/s
Explanation:
We are given;
car's mass, m = 1200 kg
h_A = 100 m
h_B = 150 m
v_B = 0 m/s
From law of conservation of energy,
the distance from point A to B is;
h = 150m - 100 m = 50 m
From Newton's equations of motion;
v² = u² + 2gh
Thus;
(V_B)² = (V_A)² + (-2gh)
(negative next to g because it's going against gravity)
Thus;
(V_B)² = (V_A)² - (2gh)
Plugging in the relevant values;
0² = (V_A)² - 2(9.81 × 50)
(V_A) = √981
(V_A) = 31.32 m/s
Answer:
adapted from NOVA, a team of historians, engineers, and trade experts recreate a medieval throwing machine called a trebuchet. To launch a projectile, a trebuchet utilizes the transfer of gravitational potential energy into kinetic energy. A massive counterweight at one end of a lever falls because of gravity, causing the other end of the lever to rise and release a projectile from a sling. As part of their design process, the engineers use models to help evaluate how well their designs will work.
