Multiple-Concept Example 13 presents useful background for this problem. The cheetah is one of the fastest accelerating animals,

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

9241.6 W or 12.39318 hp

Explanation:

u = Initial velocity = 0

v = Final velocity

m = Mass

t = Time taken

Energy

$KE=\frac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)\\\Rightarrow KE=\frac{1}{2}108(30.4^2-0^2)\\\Rightarrow KE=49904.64\ Joules$

Power

$P=\frac{KE}{t}\\\Rightarrow P=\frac{49904.64}{5.4}\\\Rightarrow P=9241.6\ W$

Converting to hp

$1\ W=\frac{1}{745.7}\ hp$

$\\\Rightarrow 9241.6\ W=\frac{9241.6}{745.7}\ hp=12.39318\ hp$

The power developed by the cheetah is 9241.6 W or 12.39318 hp

For Valentine’s Day, Sally received a helium-filled balloon at a party. On returning home she accidentally left the balloon in t

Softa [21]

Answer:

If the temperature of the air in the balloon is less than the temperature of the air surrounding the balloon then the balloon will appear slightly deflated because of the difference in temperature.

As the temperature of the air in the balloon reaches the surrounding air temperature, then the balloon will appear to be fully inflated because the temperature of the air in the balloon is the same as the surrounding air temperature.

A roller coaster car of mass m= 300 kg is released from rest at the top of a 60 m high hill (position A), and rolls with a negli

Andrews [41]

Answer: The principle of conservation of energy, angular speed and centripetal force

Explanation:

At point A, the car experienced maximum of potential energy

As it moves down the hill, the potential energy decreases while the kinetic energy increases.

The maximum kinetic energy of the car is needed for the attainment of enough centripetal force to help the car move through the loop without falling .
