Determine the kinetic energy of a 2000 kg roller coaster car that is moving at the speed of 10 ms
kondaur [170]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 100,000 \ Joules}}

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is energy due to motion. The formula is half the product of mass and velocity squared.

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

The mass of the roller coaster car is 2000 kilograms and the car is moving 10 meters per second.

  • m= 2000 kg
  • s= 10 m/s

Substitute these values into the formula.

E_k= \frac{1}{2} (2000 \ kg ) \times (10 \ m/s)^2

Solve the exponent.

  • (10 m/s)²= 10 m/s * 10 m/s= 100 m²/s²

E_k= \frac{1}{2} (2000 \ kg ) \times (100 \ m^2/s^2)

Multiply the first two numbers together.

E_k= 1000 \ kg  \times (100 \ m^2/s^2)

Multiply again.

E_k= 100,000 \ kg*m^2/s^2

  • 1 kilogram square meter per square second is equal to 1 Joule.
  • Our answer of 100,000 kg*m²/s² is equal to 100,000 Joules.

E_k= 100,000 \ J

The roller coaster car has <u>100,000 Joules</u> of kinetic energy.

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

I=0.0361 kg.m^2

Explanation:

Torque is the rotational equivalent of a force

Torque= perpendicular distance r X Force F

Torque T = I(moment of inertia) X α (angular acceleration)

T= Iα

r= 0.0285m

F= 1.9 x 10^3

T=0.0285 x 1.9 x 10^3

T= 54.15Nm

I=T/α

I=54.15/150

I=0.361 kg.m^2
