How does work done on an object affect its kinetic energy

Physics
1 answer:
Alexus [3.1K]3 years ago
5 0

According to the work-energy theorem, the work done on an object by a net force equals the change in kinetic energy of the object. Essentially kinetic energy is the energy used for motion. Interestingly, as work is done on an object, potential energy can be stored in that object. A moving object has kinetic energy because work has been done on it. When work is done energy in one form is transferred to the kinetic energy of the moving object. To stop the object again, the same amount of work would have to be done to bring it back to rest.

An 1100kg car reached 30m/s in 9s from rest. What force did the engine provide?
malfutka [58]

Answer:

≅3666.67 N

Explanation:

Use Newton's 2nd law, F = ma where F=force applied, m = mass of the object,

a = acceleration acquired by the object.

a= (v-u)/t where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity and t = time taken

calculate a = (30-0)/9 ≅ 3.33 m/s2

Then F = 1100×a = 3666.67 N

Two equal forces are applied to a door. The first force is applied at the midpoint of the door, the second force is applied at t
Orlov [11]

Answer:

D) the second at the doorknob

Explanation:

The torque exerted by a force is given by:

\tau = Fdsin \theta

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the distance between the point of application of the force and the centre of rotation

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and d

In this problem, we have:

- Two forces of equal magnitude F

- Both forces are perpendicular to the door, so \theta=90^{\circ}, sin \theta=1

- The first force is exerted at the midpoint of the door, while the 2nd force is applied at the doorknob. This means that d is the larger for the 2nd force

--> therefore, the 2nd force exerts a greater torque
