Answer:

3000 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is:

KE = ½ mv²

If m = 15 kg and v = -20 m/s:

KE = ½ (15 kg) (-20 m/s)²

KE = 3000 J

Amy is in-line skating. Her mass is 50 kg. She is rolling forward (north) on a flat section of road at 10 m/s. The rolling frict
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

The right solution is "0.50 m/s²". A further explanation is provided below.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Mass,

m = 50 kg

Speed,

v = 10 m/s

Rolling friction acting backward (south),

f = 10 N

Air resistance acting backward (south),

F_T = 15 N

The total force acting will be:

⇒  F = -f-F

On substituting the given values, we get

⇒      =-10-15

⇒      =-25 \ N

Now,

⇒  a = \frac{F}{m}

On substituting the given values, we get

⇒     =\frac{-25}{50}

⇒     =-0.50 \ m/s^2

The horizontal acceleration will be "0.50 m/s²" because the (-)ve sign indicates it in south direction.

Review Conceptual Example 7 before starting this problem. A uniform plank of length 5.0 m and weight 225 N rests horizontally on
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

0.82 m

Explanation:

We are given that

Weight,w_1=225 N

Length,l=5 m

d=1.1 m

We have to find the distance x  for which person weighs 385 N walk on the overhanging part of the plank before it just begins to tip.

Half length=\frac{l}{2}=\frac{5}{2}=2.5 m

r=\frac{l}{2}-d=2.5-1.1=1.4 m

w_2=385 N

When system in equilibrium then

w_1r=w_2 x

225\times 1.4=385\times x

x=\frac{225\times 1.4}{385}

x=0.82 m

leva [86]
The energy changes involved when a positive charge moves because of a nearby, negatively charged object because that is actually similar to when an object falls in a gravitational field, the potential energy of the object will turn in to a kinetic energy. thank you for this question.

Ron and Hermoine are fighting over the Monster book of Monsters and they are both pulling on the book with a force of 14 N (equa
m_a_m_a [10]

let the ron and hermoine apply force along the horizontal direction . let ron pulls in left direction. and hermoine pulls towards right

lets assume that the left direction is taken as negative and right direction as positive.

F = force applied by ron towards left

F' = force applied by hermoine towards right

a = acceleration of the book

m = mass of book

force equation for the book is given as

- F + F' = ma

Given that : F = F'

hence

- F' + F' = ma

0 = ma

a = 0 m/s²

since the book was initially at rest and the acceleration comes out to be zero, hence the book will not move.

so correct choice is

D) The book will not move
