A 2100 kg car starts from rest and accelerates at a rate of 2.6 m/s2 for 4.0 s. Assume that the force acting to accelerate the c

ar is acting in the same direction as its motion. How much work has the car done?

When the system is experiencing a uniformly accelerated motion, there are a set of equations to work from. In this case, work is energy which consist solely of kinetic energy. That is, 1/2*m*v2. First, let's find the final velocity.

a = (vf - v0)/t
2.6 = (vf - 0)/4
vf = 10.4 m/s

Then W = 1/2*(2100 kg)*(10.4 m/s)2
W = 113568 J = 113.57 kJ

a plane passes over Point A with a velocity of 8,000 m/s north. Forty seconds later it passes over Point B with a velocity of 10
ValentinkaMS [17]

Acceleration = (change in velocity) / (time for the change)

Change in velocity = (ending velocity) - (starting velocity)

Change in the plane's velocity = (10,000 m/s north) - (8,000 m/s north)

Change in the plane's velocity = 2,000 m/s north

Time for the change = 40 seconds

Acceleration = (2,000 m/s north) / (40 seconds)

<em>Acceleration = 50 m/s² north </em>

The fast train known as the TGV (Train à Grande Vitesse) that runs south from Paris, France, has a scheduled average speed of 21
andrezito [222]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

average speed of train(v_{avg})=216 kmph\approx 60 m/s

Maximum acceleration=0.05g

Now centripetal acceleration is

a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}

0.05\times 9.8=\frac{60^2}{r}

r=7346.93 m

(b)Radius of curvature=900 m

therefore a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}

v=\sqrt{a_cr}

v=\sqrt{0.05\times 9.8\times 900}

v=\sqrt{441}=21 m/s
