Speed is the distance traveled
                             time
but velocity is the change in distance

Speed and Velocity are similar with their only real differences being that Speed has to be positive, and Velocity is a vector, which means that it has to have direction and magnitude.

A student exerts a force of 500 n pushing a box 10 m across the floor in 4 s. how much work does the student perform?
gregori [183]
Work = Force * distance
W = Fd

Given F = 500 N, d = 10 m
W = (500)(10)
W = 5000 J

The work done is 500 Joules. The time of 4 s is irrelevant in this case.

Imagine a particle that has three times the mass of the electron. All other quantities given above remain the same. What is the
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

The only parameter that changes is mass m

It is only necessary to calculate the ratio Eh/Ee

m_{h}=3m_{e}\\E_{h}=\frac{3m_{e}v^{2}}{2}\\E_{e}=\frac{m_{e}v^{2}}{2}\\\frac{E{h}}{E{e}}=3

The kinetic energy of the heavy paricle is three times the kinetic energy of an electron

A car is moving at a velocity of 25 km/h and increases velocity to 1200 km/h in 2 min. what is the acceleration?
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

a = 2.72 [m/s2]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the following kinematics equation:

v_{f} =v_{o} + a*t

where:

Vf = final velocity = 1200 [km/h]

Vo = initial velocity = 25 [km/h]

t = time = 2 [min] = 2/60 = 0.0333 [h]

1200 = 25 + (a*0.0333)

a = 35250.35 [km/h2]

if we convert these units to units of meters per second squared

35250.35[\frac{km}{h^{2} }]*(\frac{1}{3600^{2} })*[\frac{h^{2} }{s^{2} } ]*(\frac{1000}{1} )*[\frac{m}{km} ] = 2.72 [\frac{m}{s^{2} } ]
