How can speed be described

Physics
1 answer:
Elis [28]3 years ago
4 0

To calculate the speed of an object divide the distance the object travels by the amount of time it takes to travel the distance. Can be written as speed=distance/time (s=d/t ).

The speed equation consists of a unit of distance divided by a unit of time

How are energy, force, and the motion of objects related?
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

When two objects interact, each one exerts a force on the other that can cause energy to be transferred to or from the object. For example, when energy is transferred to an Earth-object system as an object is raised, the gravitational field energy of the system increases. This energy is released as the object falls; the mechanism of this release is the gravitational force. Likewise, two magnetic and electrically charged objects interacting at a distance exert forces on each other that can transfer energy between the interacting objects.

Explanation:

Even when an object is sitting still, it has energy stored inside that can be turned into kinetic energy (motion). ... A force is a push or pull that causes an object to move, change direction, change speed, or stop. Without a force, an object that is moving will continue to move and an object at rest will remain at rest.

In a ballistics test, a 24 g bullet traveling horizontally at 1300 m/s goes through a 25-cm-thick 360 kg stationary target and e
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

A)0.00022s b)40363.6N c) 0.025m/s

Explanation:

Mass = 24g = 0.024kg, distance though the target = thickness of the target = 25cm = 0.25m

Initial speed of the bullet = 1300m/s, final speed = 930m/s

Using equation of motion

Distance = 1/2(vf+vi)*t (time in seconds)

t = 0.25*2/(1300+930) = 0.00022s

B) force exerted on the body

F = ma = m* (vf-vi)/t = 0.024*(930-1300)/0.00022

F = -40363N, it is negative because the body decelerated during this motion

C) using law of conservation of momentum,

M1*U1+ M2*U2(M2and U1 are the mass and initial speed of the body) = M1V1+ M2V2

The target was at rest so initial speed U2 = 0

0.024*1300 + 360*0 = 0.024*930 + 360*V2

31.2 = 22.32+360*V2

31.2-22.33 = 360*V2

V2 = 8.88/360 = 0.025m/s
