Answer:

The car that receives more kinetic energy is the small economy car.

Explanation:

K.E = 0.5*mv²

Where;

K.E is the kinetic Energy

M is the mass of an object

V is the velocity of the moving object

But F = m(v/t), from Newton's second law of motion

If equal forces were applied to the two cars, then the velocity of each car will be calculated as follows.

v = (Ft/m)

v² = (Ft/m)²

Substitute in the value of v² into Kinetic energy equation

K.E = 0.5*mv²

K.E = 0.5*m(Ft/m)² = (0.5*F²t²)/m

Also assuming equal distance, equal force and assuming equal time for both cars.

The above equation will reduce to, K.E = k/m

Where k = 0.5*F²t², which is equal in both cars.

Thus, Kinetic energy will depend only on the mass of each car.

From the above expression, Kinetic Energy received by each car is inversely proportional to the mass of the car.

A small economy car (low mass)  will receive more kinetic energy while a limousine (high mass) car will receive less kinetic energy.

Therefore, the car that receives more kinetic energy is the small economy car.

What is the frequency in hertz of a signal that repeats 80,000 times within one minute? What is its period?
Harman [31]

1333.3 is the frequency in the hertz of a signal that repeats 80,000 times within one minute. 0.00075 is its period.

The frequency of a repeated event is its number of instances per unit of time. In some cases, it is also referred to as temporal frequency or ordinary frequency to underline differences with spatial and angular frequencies, respectively.

The length of time it takes for a particle in a medium to complete one full vibrational cycle is the period of a wave. Being a time, a period is measured in time units like seconds, hours, days, or years. The Earth's orbit around the Sun has a duration of around 365 days, and one cycle of the Earth lasts 365 days.

frequency = cycle /second

frequency = 80000 / 60

frequency = 1333.3 hertz

Period = 1 / frequency

Period = 1 / 1,333.3

Period = 0.00075

During which interval is the object not moving
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Between 2.0 s and 4.0 s (B and C)

Between 5.0 s and 8.0 s (D and E)

Between 10.0 s and 11.0 s (F and G)

Explanation:

The graph shown in the figure is a velocity-time graph, which means that:

- On the x-axis, the time is plotted

- On the y-axis, the velocity is plotted

Therefore, this means that the object is not moving when the line is horizontal (because at that moment, the velocity is constant, so the object is not moving). This occurs in the following intervals:

Between 2.0 s and 4.0 s (B and C)

Between 5.0 s and 8.0 s (D and E)

Between 10.0 s and 11.0 s (F and G)

From the graph, it would be possible to infer additional information. In particular:

- The area under the graph represents the total distance covered by the object

- The slope of the graph represents the acceleration of the object
