The kinetic energy of the cart is 24 J.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The acceleration of a given mass from rest to the velocity is known as kinetic energy. It gains energy from acceleration and remains in this state until the speed of the object changes.

The kinetic energy is the given by,

K.E = 1/2 mv^2

Given the mass m = 3 kg, v = 4 m / s.

K.E = 1/2 $\times$ 3 $\times$ (4)^2

K.E = 24 J.

Joseph studied whether different materials can block certain electromagnetic waves by testing television reception in different

Sedbober [7]

Joseph's experiment could be improved by using the same antenna at each part of the house during each trial instead of using different antenna. By doing so, he can obtain accurate results how is the signal in different part of the house under the same conditions (despite the location). So, he will see the dependence of the signal on the location. If he uses different antenna, than this antenna can also have influence of the signal.

A 1500kg car double its speed from 50km/h to 100km/h. By how many times does the kinetic energy from the car's forward motion in

Rashid [163]

Answer:

Explanation:

Inital KE = (1/2) m v^2 = (1/2) * 1500 * 50^2 = 1,875,000 J

Final KE = (1/2) * 1500 * 100^2 = 7,500,000 J

But ,

4 * 1875000 = 7500000

so the KE has increased by 4 times.

A large spool in an electrician's workshop has 65 m of insulation-coated wire coiled around it. When the electrician connects a

Art [367]

Answer:

$40.34\ \text{m}$

Explanation:

$L_1$ = Length of wire = 65 m

$I_1$ = Initial current = 1.8 A

$I_2$ = Final current = 2.9 A

We know

$R\propto \dfrac{1}{I}$

and

$R\propto L$

$\dfrac{V}{I}\propto L\\\Rightarrow L\propto \dfrac{1}{I}$

$\dfrac{L_2}{L_1}=\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}\\\Rightarrow L_2=\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}L_1\\\Rightarrow L_2=\dfrac{1.8}{2.9}\times 65\\\Rightarrow L_2=40.34\ \text{m}$

The length of the wire remaining on the spool is $40.34\ \text{m}$ .

If a train is 100 kilometers away, how much sooner would you hear the train coming by listening to the rails (iron) as opposed t

Whitepunk [10]

From tables, the speed of sound at 0°C is approximately
V₁ = 331 m/s (in air)
V₃ = 5130 m/s (in iron)

Distance traveled is
d = 100 km = 10⁵ m

Time required to travel in air is
t₁ = d/V₁ = 10⁵/331 = 302.12 s

Time required to travel in iron is
t₂ = d/V₂ = 10⁵/5130 = 19.49 s

The difference in time is
302.12 - 19.49 = 282.63 s

Answer: 283 s (nearest second)
