After the box comes to rest at position x1, a person starts pushing the box, giving it a speed v1. when the box reaches position

x2 (where x2>x1), how much work wp has the person done on the box? assume that the box reaches x2 after the person has accelerated it from rest to speed v1. express the work in terms of m, v0, x1, x2, and v1.

As we know by work energy theorem

total work done = change in kinetic energy

so here we can say that wok done on the box will be equal to the change in kinetic energy of the system

W_p = KE_f - KE_i

initial the box is at rest at position x = x1

so initial kinetic energy will be ZERO

at final position x = x2 final kinetic energy is given as

KE_f = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2

now work done is given as

W_p = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2 - 0

so we can say

W_p = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2

so above is the work done on the box to slide it from x1 to x2

The skateboarder starts at the top of the ramps, and rolls down and back up the other side. Which graph shows the most Kinetic E
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Usually when you are at the bottom you are at peak speed. It also shows that Kinetic Energy is the green bar and in picture C the green bar is highest.

Suppose a free-fall ride at an amusement park starts at rest and is in free fall. What is the velocity of the ride after 2.3 s?
horsena [70]

Answer:

V = a * t = 9.8 m/s^2 * 2.3 s = 22.5 m/s   velocity after 2.3 s

S = 1/2 g t^2      since initial speed is zero

S = 1/2 * 9.8 m/s^2 * 5.29 s^2 = 25.9 m
