A 1200-kg car initially at rest undergoes constant acceleration for 9.4 s, reaching a speed of 11 m/s. It then collides with a s

tationary car that has a perfectly elastic spring bumper. What is the final kinetic energy of the two car system?

To solve this problem we will apply the principle of conservation of energy and the definition of kinematic energy as half the product between mass and squared velocity. So,

KE_i = KE_f

KE_f = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Here,

m = Mass

V = Velocity

Replacing,

KE_f = \frac{1}{2} (12000)(11)^2

KE_f = 72600J

Therefore the  final kinetic energy of the two car system is 72.6kJ

A 1560-kilogram truck moving with a speed of 28.0 m/s runs into the rear end of a 1070-kilogram stationary car. If the collision
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Δ KE =  249158.6 kJ  

Explanation:

given data

Truck mass  M =  1560 Kg

Truck initial speed, u = 28 m/s

mass of car m = 1070 Kg

initial speed of car u1 = 0 m/s

solution

first we get here final speed by using conservation of momentum  that is express as

Mu = (M+m) V     .......................1

put here  value we get

1560 × 28 = (1560 + 1070 ) V

solve it we get

final speed V = 16.60 m/s

and

Change in kinetic energy  will be here

Δ KE =   \frac{1}{2} Mu^2 - \frac{1}{2}(M+m)V^2         .................2

put here value and we get

 Δ KE = \frac{1}{2}\times 1560\times 28^2 - \frac{1}{2}\times (1560 + 1070)\times 16.60^2  

solve it we get

Δ KE =  249158.6 kJ

A certain car engine delivers enough force to create 630 N⋅m of torque when the engine is operating at 3200 revolutions per minu
jekas [21]

The appropriate expression for the calculation of power by relating the angular energy in a given time.

In other words the instantaneous power of an angular accelerating body is the torque times the angular velocity

P=\tau\omega

Where

\tau = Torque

\omega =Angular speed

Our values are given by

\tau = 630Nm

\omega = 3200rev/min

The angular velocity must be transformed into radians per second then

\omega = 3200rev/min (\frac{2\pi rad}{60s})

\omega = 335.103rad/s

Replacing,

P=(630)(335.103)

P = 211.11*10^3W

P = 211.1kW

The average power delivered by the engine at this rotation rate is 211.1kW

What is black body radiation? Explain in detail.
tangare [24]

An object that absorbs all radiation falling on it, at all wavelengths, is called a black body. When a black body is at a uniform temperature, its emission has a characteristic frequency distribution that depends on the temperature. Its emission is called black-body radiation

The dark bands on the wall are from ______________ interference. and i will give brainlyest
Fittoniya [83]
Light can be seen as an electromagnetic wave.
What happens when two waves, with the same frequency, superpose is called interference.

If at a certain point two waves arrive both with a crest, we have constructive interference and the amplitudes sum up, reaching the maximum value, resulting in bright spots.

If at a certain point one of the waves arrives with a crest and the other wave arrives with a trough, we have destructive interference, and the two amplitudes cancel out, resulting in dark spots.

Therefore, t<span>he dark bands on the wall are from destructive interference.</span>
