how many times does the kinectic energy of a car increase when traveling 60 mph as opposed to traveling 30 mph

1 answer:

3 0

The car at 60 kph has 9 times more kinetic energy than the car traveling at 20 kph. This assumes that both cars have the same mass. Kinetic energy depends on the square of thee speed so if one car is going 3 times faster, its kinetic energy will be 3^2 ( = 9 ) greater. The car going at 60 kph will have 4 times the KE of the car going at 30 kph ( again assuming that the cars have the same mass.)

• ¿Qué rapidez tendrá un sonido de 150 Hz con una longitud de onda de 2 metros?

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Speed = 300 m/s

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Frequency = 150 Hz

Wavelength = 2 meters

To find the speed of the wave;

Mathematically, the speed of a wave is given by the formula:

$Speed = wavelength * frequency$

Substituting into the formula, we have;

$Speed = 2 * 150$

Speed = 300 m/s

Why do ions stick together?

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

The ions stick together because of the electrostatic attraction between ions that are near one another.Electrostatic attraction refers to the electrostatic force of long-range interaction occurring between the attractive electrostatic adsorption in aqueous solution with differently charged particles or uncharged particles.

Hope this helps!! ;)

Two boats start together and race across a 48-km-wide lake and back. boat a goes across at 48 km/h and returns at 48 km/h. boat

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Time required by boat 1 for the round trip is less than that of boat 2.

Hence, boat 1 wins.

Explanation:

Case 1: Boat 1

Speed of boat = $\frac{distance of river}{time}$

time = $\frac{distance of river}{speed of boat}$

While going to another end

time = $\frac{distance of river}{speed of boat}$

time = $\frac{48}{48}$

time = 1 hour

While going back,

time = $\frac{distance of river}{speed of boat}$

time = $\frac{48}{48}$

time = 1 hour

Total time taken by boat 1 is,

Total time by boat 1 = 1 hour + 1 hour = 2 hour

Total time by boat 1 = 2 hour

Total time taken by boat 1 for the round trip is 2 hour.

Case 2: Boat 2

Speed of boat = $\frac{distance of river}{time}$

time = $\frac{distance of river}{speed of boat}$

While going to another end

time = $\frac{distance of river}{speed of boat}$

time = $\frac{48}{24}$

time = 2 hour

While going back,

time = $\frac{distance of river}{speed of boat}$

time = $\frac{48}{72}$

time = 0.66 hour

Total time taken by boat 2 is,

Total time by boat 1 = 2 hour + 0.66 hour

Total time by boat 1 = 2.66 hour

Total time taken by boat 2 for the round trip is 2.66 hour.

Time required by boat 1 for the round trip is less than that of boat 2.

Hence, boat 1 wins.
