Answer:

C. 2197 J

Explanation:

The work done = Energy change

The work done by man = Kinetic energy change of the car

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a moving object solely due to its motion.

You can get the K.E. of an object using the equation,

K.E. = (1/2)mv²

So you get,

The work done by man = K.E. change of the car

= (1/2)×550×(3.2)² - (1/2)×550×(1.5)²

= 2197.25 J

Orlov [11]

Answer:

the object has least potential energy at mean position of the SHM

Explanation:

If a block is connected with a spring and there is no resistive force on the system

In this case the total energy of the system is always conserved and it will change from one form to another form

So here we will say that

Kinetic energy + Potential energy = Total Mechanical energy

As we can say that total energy is conserved so here we have least potential energy when the system has maximum kinetic energy

So here we also know that at mean position of the SHM the system has maximum speed and hence maximum kinetic energy.

So the object has least potential energy at mean position of the SHM

cupoosta [38]

Explanation:

As light is an electromagnetic wave that causes sensation of sight.

Every electromagnetic wave has electrical and magnetic components in it which are perpendicular to the direction of propagation of wave.

The electrical and magnetic components are mutually perpendicular to each other in an electromagnetic wave.

The speed of light in vacuum is c=3\times 10^{8}\ m.s^{-1}, which decreases when it passes through a matter (precisely a transparent medium) which allows the passage of light through it. When the light passes through some transparent matter then its speed decreases as compared to the speed of light in vacuum.
