The atoms in a solid move about freely

Physics
1 answer:
ivolga24 [154]3 years ago
6 0

No, not exactly.  They jiggle and tremble and vibrate a lot, but
they always basically stay in very nearly the same place.

It's like if you're allowed to go anywhere you want in your jail cell,
you wouldn't exactly call that "moving about freely".

) A 1000 kg car travelling at 50 m/s slams into a 1500 kg parked truck in an inelastic manner as
solmaris [256]

(a)

KE = m v^2 / 2 = (1200 kg)(20 m/s)^2 / 2 = 240,000 J


(b)

The energy is entirely dissipated by the force of friction in the brake system.


(c)

W = delta KE = KEf - KEi = (0 - 240,000) J = -240,000 J



(d)

Fd = delta KE

F = (delta KE) / d = (-240,000 J) / (50 m) = -4800 N

The magnitude of the friction force is 4800 N.

Which mathematical formula would you use to calculate the IMA of a wheel?
coldgirl [10]

W = F x D

The work you put into a machine -- the input force -- is the force you apply times the distance you apply it. The work done by the machine equals the resisting weight times the distance it moves when you perform the work.
