Answer:

194,400 joules of kinetic energy.

Explanation:

Remember that to calculate the Kinetic energy you need to use the next formula:

Ke=\frac{1}{2}Mass*Velocity^2

We know that Mass= 1200 kg and velocity is 18m/s, so we insert those values into the formula:

Ke=\frac{1}{2}Mass*Velocity^2\\Ke=\frac{1}{2}1200kg*(18m/s)^2\\Ke=194,400 joules

So the kinetic energy of a car moving at 18m/s with a mass of 1200 kg would be 194,400 joules.

The photon energies used in different types of medical x-ray imaging vary widely, depending upon the application. Single dental
pav-90 [236]

A) 5.0\cdot 10^{-11} m

The energy of an x-ray photon used for single dental x-rays is

E=25 keV = 25,000 eV \cdot (1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J/eV)=4\cdot 10^{-15} J

The energy of a photon is related to its wavelength by the equation

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}

where

h=6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js is the Planck constant

c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s is the speed of light

\lambda is the wavelength

Re-arranging the equation for the wavelength, we find

\lambda=\frac{hc}{E}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34} Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{4\cdot 10^{-15}J}=5.0\cdot 10^{-11} m

B) 2.0\cdot 10^{-11} m

The energy of an x-ray photon used in microtomography is 2.5 times greater than the energy of the photon used in part A), so its energy is

E=2.5 \cdot (4\cdot 10^{-15}J)=1\cdot 10^{-14} J

And so, by using the same formula we used in part A), we can calculate the corresponding wavelength:

\lambda=\frac{hc}{E}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34} Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{1\cdot 10^{-14}J}=2.0\cdot 10^{-11} m

What is the benefit of developing the atomic mass unit as a standard unit of mass?
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

The atomic mass unit is 1/12 of an atom of carbon 12, and is a very small amount to represent in kilograms:

1m_{u}=1.66054x10^{-27}kg

m_{u} is atomic mass unit.

This is why the benefits of the atomic mass unit is that it makes the representation of atomic masses easier in terms of the simplicity of the numbers that are used to represent the masses. Also using the atomic mass unit it is easier to compare the masses of different atoms, These numbers would be very small and would require negative powers of 10 to represent them, so it is more convenient to use the atomic mass unit.

amping equipment weighing 6.0 kN is pulled across a frozen lake by means of ahorizontal rope. The coecient of kinetic friction i
Harman [31]

Answer:

Work done = 422.45 kJ

Explanation:

given,                                  

weight of equipment = 6 kN      

coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.05          

distance up to which it is pulled = 1000 m

constant acceleration = 0.2 m/s²                    

Work done by the camper = ?                

actual acceleration acting a'      

m a = m a' - μ mg            

a' = a + μ g                      

a' = 0.2 + 0.05 x 9.8                

a' = 0.69 m/s²                              

Work done = Force x distance

F = m a'                                                            

F = \dfrac{6000}{9.8} \times 0.69

F = 422.44897 N                            

Work done = F x d                          

Work done = 422.44897 x 1000

Work done = 422449 J                  

Work done = 422.45 kJ
