Answer:
(a) 7.72×10⁵ J
(b) 4000 J
(c) 1.82×10⁻¹⁶ J
Explanation:
Kinetic Energy: This can be defined energy of a body due to its motion. The expression for kinetic energy is given as,
Ek = 1/2mv²................... Equation 1
Where Ek = Kinetic energy, m = mass, v = velocity
(a)
For a moving automobile,
Ek = 1/2mv².
Given: m = 2.0×10³ kg, v = 100 km/h = 100(1000/3600) m/s = 27.78 m/s
Substitute into equation 1
Ek = 1/2(2.0×10³)(27.78²)
Ek = 7.72×10⁵ J
(b)
For a sprinting runner,
Given: m = 80 kg, v = 10 m/s
Substitute into equation 1 above,
Ek = 1/2(80)(10²)
Ek = 40(100)
Ek = 4000 J
(c)
For a moving electron,
Given: m = 9.10×10⁻³¹ kg, v = 2.0×10⁷ m/s
Substitute into equation 1 above,
Ek = 1/2(9.10×10⁻³¹)(2.0×10⁷)²
Ek = 1.82×10⁻¹⁶ J
Time t = ?
<span>When wave is moving from
y = 0 to y =12 cm</span>
By using the formula,
y = 15cos [(π/12) t)] =
0,
cos [(π/12) t)] = 0 =
cos (π/2), so,
(π/12)t = π/2,
t = (π/2) (12/π)
t = 12/2
<span>t = 6 sec</span>
<span>so 6 sec is the least amount of time required</span>
