Answer:

The work done by the shopping cart is 180 J

Explanation:

We have,

Mass of a shopping cart is 24 kg

Initial speed of cart is 1 m/s

Final speed of a cart is 4 m/s

It is required to find the work done by the shopping cart. The work done by an object is also equal to the change in its kinetic energy as per work -energy theorem. It means,

$W=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)$

m = 24 kg

u = 1 m/s and v = 4 m/s

$W=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 24\times (4^2-1^2)\\\\W=180\ J$

So, the work done by the shopping cart is 180 J.

A 13.0 kg wheel, essentially a thin hoop with radius 1.80 m, is rotating at 469 rev/min. It must be brought to a stop in 16.0 s.

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of wheel m=13 kg

radius of wheel=1.8 m

N=469 rev/min

$\omega =\frac{2\pi \times 469}{60}=49.11 rad/s$

t=16 s

Angular deceleration in 16 s

$\omega =\omega _0+\alpha \cdot t$

$\alpha =\frac{\omega }{t}=\frac{49.11}{16}=3.069 rad/s^2$

Moment of Inertia $I=mr^2=13\times 1.8^2=42.12 kg-m^2$

Change in kinetic energy =Work done

Change in kinetic Energy $=\frac{I\omega ^2}{2}-\frac{I\omega _0^2}{2}$

$\Delta KE=\frac{42.12\times 49.11^2}{2}=50,792.34 J$

(a)Work done =50.79 kJ

(b)Average Power

$P_{avg}=\frac{E}{t}=\frac{50.792}{16}=3.174 kW$

You drive a car 640 m to the east, then 340 m to the north what is the magnitude of your displacement

mixer [17]

Magnitude of displacement = $\sqrt{640^2 + 340^2}$

Adding the squares gives displacement = $\sqrt{525,200}$

Displacement = $\sqrt{525,200}$ ≈ 724.7m

how many times does the kinectic energy of a car increase when traveling 60 mph as opposed to traveling 30 mph

Bumek [7]

The car at 60 kph has 9 times more kinetic energy than the car traveling at 20 kph. This assumes that both cars have the same mass. Kinetic energy depends on the square of thee speed so if one car is going 3 times faster, its kinetic energy will be 3^2 ( = 9 ) greater. The car going at 60 kph will have 4 times the KE of the car going at 30 kph ( again assuming that the cars have the same mass.)
