A car is strapped to a rocket (combined mass = 661 kg), and its kinetic energy is 66,120 J.
labwork [276]

Answer:

9.4 m/s

Explanation:

According to the work-energy theorem, the work done by external forces on a system is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the system.

Therefore we can write:

W=K_f -K_i

where in this case:

W = -36,733 J is the work done by the parachute (negative because it is opposite to the motion)

K_i = 66,120 J is the initial kinetic energy of the car

K_f is the final kinetic energy

Solving,

K_f = K_i + W=66,120+(-36,733)=29387 J

The final kinetic energy of the car can be written as

K_f = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m = 661 kg is its mass

v is its final speed

Solving for v,

v=\sqrt{\frac{2K_f}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(29,387)}{661}}=9.4 m/s

The dogs of four-time Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race champion Jeff King pull two 100-kg sleds that are connected by a rope. The sl
azamat

Answer:

Part a)

a = 2.4 m/s^2

Part b)

F = 120 N

Explanation:

Two sleds are connected by a rope

mass of each sled is given as

m = 100 kg

now we know that dog exert pulling force on the rope connected to first sled

F = 240 N

Part a)

By newton's first law we know that

F = (m + m)a

240 = (100 + 100)a

a = \frac{240}{100}

a = 2.4 m/s^2

Part b)

As we know that force between two ropes will pull the sled behind

so we will have

F = ma

F = 100(1.20)

F = 120 N

A 2800 kg truck moving at 12 m/s to the right hits a stopped 1100 kg car. What is the combined velocity the moment they stick to
leva [86]

Answer:

The combined velocity is 8.61 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a truck, m = 2800 kg

Initial speed of truck, u = 12 m/s

The mass of a car, m' = 1100 kg

Initial speed of the car, u' = 0

We need to find the combined velocity the moment they stick together. Let it is V. Using the conservation of momentum.

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)V\\\\V=\dfrac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2}{(m_1+m_2)}\\\\V=\dfrac{2800\times 12+0}{2800+1100}\\\\V=8.61\ m/s

So, the combined velocity is 8.61 m/s.

A 5000 kg truck traveling at 60 m/s stops in 5 seconds. How much friction was between the truck's tires and the ground? ​
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

60000N

Explanation:

acceleration is change in velocity

a =(v-u)/t where a is acceleration u is initial velocity and v is final velocity

a = (0-60)/5 = -60/5= - 12m/s^2

here minus sign shows that body is decelerating and force is  force of friction Now f = ma here f is force of friction m is mass and a is acceleration

f= 5000×- 12= -60000N

MINUS SIGN HERE SHOWS FORCE OF FRICTION

Hence force of friction is 60000N
