It was a children versus grown-ups competition at school. One event required the adult to throw a basketball as far as he could.

When it was the child's turn, he had to throw a baseball instead. The event coordinator said, "It's only fair!" Based on Newton's laws, was this event fair?
(A)Yes, because an adult can apply more force than a child can. Making the adult's object bigger than the child's object helps to even out the acceleration.
(B)No, because a basketball is bigger than a baseball, and objects that are bigger accelerate slower.
(C)Yes, because acceleration doesn't depend on the size of the object.
(D)No, because you must have the same size object in a competition.

A 0.2 kg block sliding on a horizontal table slows down from 25 m/s to 20 m/s. How much energy does the block lose due to fricti
Papessa [141]

Answer:

the kinetic energy lost due to friction is 22.5 J

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the block, m = 0.2 kg

initial velocity of the block, u = 25 m/s

final velocity of the block, v = 20 m/s

The kinetic energy lost due to friction is calculated as;

\Delta K.E= K.E_f - K.E_i\\\\\Delta K.E= \frac{1}{2}mv^2 -  \frac{1}{2}mu^2\\\\\Delta K.E= \frac{1}{2}m(v^2 -u^2)\\\\\Delta K.E= \frac{1}{2} \times 0.2 (20^2 - 25^2)\\\\\Delta K.E= -22.5 \ J

Therefore, the kinetic energy lost due to friction is 22.5 J
