A car traveling on a level road initially has 440 kJ of mechanical energy. After the brakes are applied for a few seconds, the c

ar has only 110 kJ of mechanical energy. What best accounts for the missing mechanical energy

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that

There's a change in friction from 440 kJ to 110 kJ

This change is as a result of conversion of energy. The energy of the car system converted the mechanical energy in it, into a corresponding heat energy. During the course of this conversion, is where a whopping 330 kJ of energy went missing.

The 330 kJ of energy was lost as a result of the conversion of mechanical energy into heat energy by the use of friction.

Define neuron and nerve<br>cell​
san4es73 [151]

Answer: Hi!

A neuron is a basic working unit of the brain. Neurons are special cells designed to transfer information to other nerve, muscle, or gland cells. They are pretty cool - looking too! (A slightly irregular circular shape with branches reaching out from all sides.) A neuron is a nerve cell. Nerve cells are the way of communication in the nervous system.

Hope this helps!

Two objects are being lifted by a machine. One object has a mass of 2 kg, and is lifted at a speed of 2
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed²)

First object: (1/2) (2 kg) (2 m/s)² = 4 joules .

Second object: (1/2) (4 kg) (3 m/s)² = 18 joules .

The second object had more kinetic energy than the first one had.

You push a 50 kg wooden box across a wooden floor at a constant speed of 1.0 m/s. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.15. N
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

0.68 seconds

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Mass of the box = 50 kg

Speed of the box = 1.0 m/s

Coefficient of friction, μ = 0.15

Now,

Force applied = μmg    

Here,

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Thus,

F = 0.15 × 50 × 9.8

= 73.5 N

Also,

Force = Mass × Acceleration

thus,

73.5 N = 50 × a

or

a = 1.47 m/s²

After doubling the speed

Final speed = 2 × Initial speed

= 2 × 1 m/s

= 2 m/s

Also,

Acceleration = [change in speed] ÷ Time

or

1.47 = [ 2 - 1 ] ÷ Time

or

Time = 1 ÷ 1.47

or

Time = 0.68 seconds
