D
Using the kinetic energy 1/2mv^2 formula
5*10^5 is the answer
The first thing you should know for this case is the definition of distance.
d = v * t
Where,
v = speed
t = time
We have then:
d = v * t
d = 9 * 12 = 108 m
The kinetic energy is:
K = ½mv²
Where,
m: mass
v: speed
K = ½ * 1500 * (18) ² = 2.43 * 10 ^ 5 J
The work due to friction is
w = F * d
Where,
F = Force
d = distance:
w = 400 * 108 = 4.32 * 10 ^ 4
The power will be:
P = (K + work) / t
Where,
t: time
P = 2.86 * 10 ^ 5/12 = 23.9 kW
answer:
the average power developed by the engine is 23.9 kW
The number of protons an element has is its atomic number so the atomic number would be 29
