In Physics, 'work' has a very clear definition:
It's (strength of a force) times (distance through which the force acts).
'Work' has the units of Energy.
If you push against a shopping cart with 30 newtons of force, and
you keep pushing while the cart moves 4 meters, then you have
done (30 x 4) = 120 newton-meters of work = 120 "Joules".
Well you of course have different kinetic energies with the two speeds.
Kinetic energy = (1/2)*mass*velocity^2
The vehicle's mass is the same in both cases, so we can ignore that as well as 1/2 since it's a constant.
So we have (30)^2 vs (60^2)
which is 900 vs 3600
So having 60 mph compared to 30 mph is 4 times the kinetic energy.
50(6)=300.
The ball traveled 300 meters in 50 seconds.
Hope this helps and please give brainliest!
Answer:
The magnitude of the large object's momentum change is 3 kilogram-meters per second.
Explanation:
Under the assumption that no external forces are exerted on both the small object and the big object, whose situation is described by the Principle of Momentum Conservation:
(1)
Where:
,
- Initial and final momemtums of the small object, measured in kilogram-meters per second.
,
- Initial and final momentums of the big object, measured in kilogram-meters per second.
If we know that
,
and
, then the final momentum of the big object is:


The magnitude of the large object's momentum change is:


The magnitude of the large object's momentum change is 3 kilogram-meters per second.
