A car is traveling at 15 m/sm/s . Part A How fast would the car need to go to double its kinetic energy

Physics

GREYUIT [131]2 years ago

Answer:

21.21 m/s

Explanation:

Let KE₁ represent the initial kinetic energy.

Let v₁ represent the initial velocity.

Let KE₂ represent the final kinetic energy.

Let v₂ represent the final velocity.

Next, the data obtained from the question:

Initial velocity (v₁) = 15 m/s

Initial kinetic Energy (KE₁) = E

Final final energy (KE₂) = double the initial kinetic energy = 2E

Final velocity (v₂) =?

Thus, the velocity (v₂) with which the car we travel in order to double it's kinetic energy can be obtained as follow:

KE = ½mv²

NOTE: Mass (m) = constant (since we are considering the same car)

KE₁/v₁² = KE₂/v₂²

E /15² = 2E/v₂²

E/225 = 2E/v₂²

Cross multiply

E × v₂² = 225 × 2E

E × v₂² = 450E

Divide both side by E

v₂² = 450E /E

v₂² = 450

Take the square root of both side.

v₂ = √450

v₂ = 21.21 m/s

Therefore, the car will travel at 21.21 m/s in order to double it's kinetic energy.

What kinds of space and matter can light travel through
dem82 [27]

Answer:

Light travels as a wave. But unlike sound waves or water waves, it does not need any matter or material to carry its energy along. This means that light can travel through a vacuum—a completely airless space. (Sound, on the other hand, must travel through a solid, a liquid, or a gas.)

ipn [44]

Answer:

(a) ΔU=747J

(b) γ=1.3

Explanation:

For (a) change in internal energy

According to first law of thermodynamics the change in internal energy is given as

ΔU=Q-W

Substitute the given values

ΔU=970J-223J

ΔU=747J

For(b) γ for the gas.

We can calculate γ by ratio of heat capacities of the gas

γ=Cp/Cv

Where Cp is the molar heat capacity at constant pressure

Cv is the molar heat capacity at constant volume

To calculate γ we first need to find Cp and Cv

So

For Cp

As we know

Q=nCpΔT

Cp=(Q/nΔT)

C_{p}=\frac{970J}{1.75mol*(25^{o}C-10^{o}C )}\\C_{p}=37J/mol.K

From relation of Cv and Cp we know that

Cp=Cv+R

Where R is gas constant equals to 8.314J/mol.K

So

C_{v}=C_{p}-R\\C_{v}=37-8.314\\C_{v}=28.687J/mol.K\\

So

γ=Cp/Cv

γ=[(37J/mol.K) / (28.687J/mol.K)]

γ=1.3
