A train 400 m long is moving on a straight track with a speed of 81.4 km/h. The engineer applies the brakes at a crossing, and l

Luda [366]

Answer:

86.5m

Explanation:

first convert km/h

then

81.4*1000/60*60=22.6

17.6*1000/60*60=4.89

then, x1/t1=x2/t2

we get

x2=400*4.89/22.6=86.5//

Power = work/time
Work = force * distance

(2000 N * 200 m) / 10 s = 40,000 Joules

A gas occupies a volume of 20 cubic meters at 9,000 pascals. If the pressure is lowered to 5,000 pascals, what volume will the g

forsale [732]

We need to consider no change in the temperature of gas (isothermal transformation)

Volume and pressure are inversely proportional magnitudes, so we can write:

$P_1.V_1=P_2.V_2\\
\\
9.20=5.V_2\\
\\
V_2=\frac{180}{5}=36 \ m^3$

A 45 kg bear slides, from rest, 11 m down a lodgepole pine tree, moving with a speed of 5.8 m/s just before hitting the ground.

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

change in the gravitational potential energy of the bear-Earth system during the slide = mgh

= 45 x 9.8 x 11

= 4851 J

b )

kinetic energy of bear just before hitting the ground

= 1/2 m v²

= .5 x 45 x 5.8²

= 756.9 J

c ) If the average frictional force that acts on the sliding bear be F

negative work done by friction

= F x 11 J

then ,

4851 J - F x 11 = 756.9 J

F x 11 = 4851 J - 756.9 J

= 4094.1 J

F = 4094.1 / 11

= 372.2 N
