Answer:84.672 joules.
Explanation:
1) Data:
m = 7.2 kg
h = 1.2 m
g = 9.8 m / s²
2) Physical principle
Using the law of mechanical energy conservation principle, you have that the kinetic energy of the dog, when it jumps, must be equal to the final gravitational potential energy.
3) Calculations:
The gravitational potential energy, PE, is equal to m × g × h
So, PE = m × g × h = 7.2 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 1.2 m = 84.672 joules.
And that is the kinetic energy that the dog needs.
Answer: C)The yellow car was faster. Yellow traveled at a speed of 50 mph while green was traveling at an average of 40 mph.
Explanation:
The speed of each car is defined as:

where d is the distance traveled by the car and t is the time taken.
For the yellow car, d=400 mi and t=8 h, so its speed is

For the green car, d=400 mi and t=10 h, so its speed is

So, the correct choice is
C)The yellow car was faster. Yellow traveled at a speed of 50 mph while green was traveling at an average of 40 mph.
Answer:
option A
Explanation:
given,
Kinetic energy of the car = 2000 J
speed of the car is doubled
we know,

........(1)
now, speed of the car is doubled
v' = 2 v


from equation (1)



Hence, the Kinetic energy would be equal to 8000 J.
The correct answer is option A.
