How does kinetic energy affect the stopping distance of a vehicle traveling at 30 mph compared to the same vehicle traveling at

60 mph?

Well you of course have different kinetic energies with the two speeds.
Kinetic energy = (1/2)*mass*velocity^2
The vehicle's mass is the same in both cases, so we can ignore that as well as 1/2 since it's a constant.
So we have (30)^2 vs (60^2)
which is 900 vs 3600
So having 60 mph compared to 30 mph is 4 times the kinetic energy.

what is the transfer of heat energy by direct contact. A . convection b. radiation c. thermal or heat and d. conduction ​
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

d. conduction ​

Explanation:

Conduction involves the transfer of electric charge or thermal energy due to the movement of particles. When the conduction relates to electric charge, it is known as electrical conduction while when it relates to thermal energy, it is known as heat conduction.

In the process of heat conduction, thermal energy is usually transferred from fast moving particles to slow moving particles during the collision of these particles. Also, thermal energy is typically transferred between objects that has different degrees of temperature and materials (particles) that are directly in contact with each other but differ in their ability to accept or give up electrons.

Any material or object that allow the conduction (transfer) of electric charge or thermal energy is generally referred to as a conductor. Conductors include metal, steel, aluminum, copper, frying pan, pot, spoon etc.

In conclusion, conduction typically involves the transfer of heat energy by direct contact between two or more conductors such as a pot and electric cooker.

The mean diameters of Mars and Earth are 6.9 ✕ 103 km and 1.3 ✕ 104 km, respectively. The mass of Mars is 0.11 times Earth's mas
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

(a) Ratio of mean density is 0.735

(b) Value of g on mars 0.920 m,/sec^2

(c) Escape velocity on earth is 3.563\times 10^4m/sec

Explanation:

We have given radius of mars R_{mars}=6.9\times 10^3km=6.9\times 10^6m and radius of earth R_{E}=1.3\times 10^4km=1.3\times 10^7m

Mass of earth M_E=5.972\times 10^{24}kg

So mass of mars M_m=5.972\times\times 0.11 \times 10^{24}=0.657\times 10^{24}kg

Volume of mars V=\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3=\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14\times (6.9\times 10^6)^3=1375.357\times 10^{18}m^3

So density of mars d_{mars}=\frac{mass}{volume}=\frac{0.657\times 10^{24}}{1375.357\times 10^{18}}=477.69kg/m^3

Volume of earth  V=\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3=\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14\times (1.3\times 10^7)^3=9.198\times 10^{21}m^3

So density of earth d_{E}=\frac{mass}{volume}=\frac{5.972\times 10^{24}}{9.198\times 10^{21}}=649.271kg/m^3

(A) So the ratio of mean density \frac{d_{mars}}{d_E}=\frac{477.69}{649.27}=0.735

(B) Value of g on mars

g is given by g=\frac{GM}{R^2}=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times0.657\times 10^{24}}{(6.9\times 10^6)^2}=0.920m/sec^2

(c) Escape velocity is given by

v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 0.657\times 10^{24}}{6.9\times 10^6}}=3.563\times 10^4m/sec

An object accelerates from rest and travels 53 m west in 5.2 s. Determine the acceleration
zmey [24]

Answer:

20.4m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity  = 0m/s

Distance  = 53m

Time  = 5.2s

Unknown:

Acceleration  = ?

Solution:

This is a linear motion and we use the right motion equation;

        S = ut  + \frac{1}{2}at²

S is the distance

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

 Insert the parameters and solve;

       53  = (0x 5.2) +  \frac{1}{2} x a x 5.2

       53  = 2.6a

         a = \frac{53}{2.6}  = 20.4m/s²
