Answer:

$-96.465m$ joule

Explanation:

Let m = mass of the car and v1 = initial velocity and v2 = final velocity

Given.

Initial velocity = 100 km/h

final velocity = 50 km/h

What is work done in the car to slow it from 100km/h to 50km/h?

$v1=100km/h=27.78m/s$

$v2=50km/h=13.89m/s$

The work done in the car to slow it from v1 to v2.

w=Δk

$w=k2-k1$

$w= \frac{1}{2}m(v2)^{2}- \frac{1}{2}m(v1)^{2}$

$w=\frac{1}{2} m(v2-v1)^{2}$

$w=\frac{1}{2}\times m(13.89 -27.78)^{2}$

$w=\frac{1}{2}\times m(-13.89)^{2}$

$w=\frac{1}{2}\times m\times (-192.93)$

$w=-96.465m$ joule.

Therefore, the work done is $-96.465m$ joule

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

the closest distance that she can see an object clearly when she wears her contacts is 22.2 cm

Explanation:

Given the data in the question,

near point = 20 cm

far point = 2 m = 200 cm

Now, for an object that is infinitely far away, the image is at is its far point.

so using the following expression, we can determine the focal length

1/f = 1/i + 1/o

where f is the focal length, i is the image distance and o is the object distance.

here, far point i = 2 m = 200 cm and v is ∞

so we substitute

1/f = 1/(-200 cm) + 1/∞

f = -200 cm

Also, for object at its closest point, the image appear at near point,

1/f = 1/i + 1/o

we make o the subject of formula

o = ( i × f ) / ( i - f )

given that near point i = 20 cm

we substitute

o = ( -20 × -200 ) / ( -20 - (-200) )

o = 4000 / 180

o = 22.2 cm

Therefore, the closest distance that she can see an object clearly when she wears her contacts is 22.2 cm

A plane stops from 250 mph in 25 seconds. Calculate the plane's acceleration.

Lelechka [254]

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 250 mph

v = 0 mph

t = 25 s

Find: a

v = at + v₀

(0 mph) = a (25 s) + (250 mph)

a = -10 mph/s

In designing circular rides for amusement parks, mechanical engineers must consider how small variations in certain parameters c

Bess [88]

Answer:

Part a)

$dF = -\frac{mv^2}{r^2} dr$

Part b)

$dF = \frac{2mvdv}{r}$

Part c)

$dT = - \frac{2\pi r}{v^2} dv$

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that force on the passenger while moving in circle is given as

$F = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

now variation in force is given as

$dF = -\frac{mv^2}{r^2} dr$

here speed is constant

Part b)

Now if the variation in force is required such that r is constant then we will have

$F = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

so we have

$dF = \frac{2mvdv}{r}$

Part c)

As we know that time period of the circular motion is given as

$T = \frac{2\pi r}{v}$

so here if radius is constant then variation in time period is given as

$dT = - \frac{2\pi r}{v^2} dv$

A shell of mass m and speed v explodes into two identical fragments. If the shell was moving horizontally (the positive x direct

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The velocity of the other fragment immediately following the explosion is v .

Explanation:

Given :

Mass of original shell , m .

Velocity of shell , + v .

Now , the particle explodes into two half parts , i.e $\dfrac{m}{2}$ .

Since , no eternal force is applied in the particle .

Therefore , its momentum will be conserved .

So , Final momentum = Initial momentum

$mv=\dfrac{mv}{2}+\dfrac{mu}{2}\\\\u=v$

The velocity of the other fragment immediately following the explosion is v .
