Holden is trying to determine the velocity of his race car. He went 20 meters east, turned around, and went 40 meters west. He t

urned the car one more time and went 35 meters east. His car was 15 meters from the starting line. This took 5 seconds.
What is the car’s velocity?

Which of the following objects has more kinetic energy than it does potential energy? Select the correct answer below:______1.a

Lilit [14]

Answer:

The pendulum of the clock.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The kinetic energy is the energy associated with the velocity of the object. The potential energy is the energy associated with the position of the object. In the objects listed in the question, only one object is moving: the pendulum of the clock (assuming that the clock is functioning). If the clock functions, the pendulum is moving when it is at the lowest point of its arc of motion and with maximum velocity. All potential energy that the pendulum stored when it reached the highest height, is transformed into kinetic energy at the lowest point. Thus, at that point, the object has more kinetic energy than potential energy.

A horse of mass 242 kg pulls a cart of mass 224 kg. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . What is the largest acceleration

Rufina [12.5K]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Newton's second Law and the force of friction. According to Newton, the Force is defined as

F = ma

Where,

m= Mass

a = Acceleration

At the same time the frictional force can be defined as,

$F_f = \mu N$

Where,

$\mu =$ Frictional coefficient

N = Normal force (mass*gravity)

Our values are given as,

$m_h = 242 kg\\m_c = 224 kg\\\mu = 0.894\\$

By condition of Balance the friction force must be equal to the total net force, that is to say

$F_{net} = F_f$

$m_{total}a = \mu m_hg$

$(m_h+m_c)a = \mu*m_h*g$

Re-arrange to find acceleration,

$a= \frac{\mu*m_h*g}{(m_h+m_c)}$

$a = \frac{0.894*242*9.8}{(242+224)}$

$a = 4.54 m/s^2$

Therefore the acceleration the horse can give is $4.54m/s^2$

Consider an insulated tank with a volume V = 2 L is separated into two equal-volume parts by a thin wall. On the left is an idea

steposvetlana [31]

Answer

given,

V = 2 L

the left is an ideal gas at P = 100 k Pa and T = 500 K

mass is constant

$m_1 = m_2$

$\dfrac{P_1V_1}{RT_1} = \dfrac{P_2V_2}{RT_2}$

Pressure is same because it's not changing due to process

$\dfrac{V}{500} = \dfrac{2 V}{T_2}$

$T_2 = 1000\ K$

$\Delta S_{univ} = \Delta S_{sys} + (\Delta S)_{surr}$

$\Delta S_{univ} =m(C_v ln (\dfrac{T_2}{T_1}))+ R ln (\dfrac{V_2}{V_1})$

$m = \dfrac{P_1V_1}{RT_1}$

$m = \dfrac{100 \times 10^3 \times 2 \times 10^{-3}}{287\times 500}$

m = 1.39 x 10⁻³ Kg

$\Delta S_{univ} =1.39\times 10^{-3}(0.718 ln\ 2+ 0.287 ln (2)$

$\Delta S_{univ} =0.968\times 10^{-3}\ kJ/K$
