the gasoline in a car does 40000 j of work on a car and generates a constant force of 20 n. how far did the car go?

1 answer:

8 0

   Work = (force) x (distance)

   40,000 J = (20 N) x (distance)

   Distance = (40,000 J) / (20 N)

=    2,000 meters

= 2 kilometers.

(20 N is not a huge force when it's being used to move a car.
It's only about 4.5 pounds.)

A skier leaves the horizontal end of a ramp with a velocity of 25.0 m/s and lands 70.0 m from the base of the ramp. How high is

Valentin [98]

Answer:

Explanation:

<u>Horizontal Motion </u>

When an object is thrown horizontally with an initial speed v and from a height h, it follows a curved path ruled by gravity.

The maximum horizontal distance traveled by the object can be calculated as follows:

$\displaystyle d=v\cdot\sqrt{\frac {2h}{g}}$

If the maximum horizontal distance is known, we can solve the above equation for h:

$\displaystyle h=\frac {d^2g}{2v^2}$

The skier initiates the horizontal motion at v=25 m/s and lands at a distance d=70 m from the base of the ramp. The height is now calculated:

$\displaystyle h=\frac {70^2\cdot 9.8}{2\cdot 25^2}$

$\displaystyle h=\frac {4900\cdot 9.8}{2\cdot 625}$

h= 38.416 m

The end of the ramp is 38.416 m high

A block of mass 0.221 kg is placed on top of a light, vertical spring of force constant 5365 N/m and pushed downward so that the

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

The maximum height above the point of release is 11.653 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of block = 0.221 kg

Spring constant k = 5365 N/m

Distance x = 0.097 m

We need to calculate the height

Using stored energy in spring

$U=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2$ ...(I)

Using gravitational potential energy

$U' =mgh$ ....(II)

Using energy of conservation

$E_{i}=E_{f}$

$U_{i}+U'_{i}=U_{f}+U'_{f}$

$\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2+0=0+mgh$

$h=\dfrac{kx^2}{2mg}$

Where, k = spring constant

m = mass of the block

x = distance

g = acceleration due to gravity

Put the value in the equation

$h=\dfrac{5365\times(0.097)^2}{2\times0.221\times9.8}$

$h=11.653\ m$

Hence, The maximum height above the point of release is 11.653 m.
