Kinetic Energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)

First runner:  KE = (1/2) (45kg) (49 m/s)  =  1,102.5 Joules  

Second runner:  KE = (1/2) (93kg) (9 m/s)  =  418.5 Joules

The <em>first runner </em><em>has 163</em>% more kinetic energy than the second runner has.

If a car's speed triples, how does the momentum and kinetic energy of the
Harrizon [31]

Answer: When the car speed triples, momentum also triples but Kinetic energy increases 9 times or by 9 fold.

Explanation:

The momentum of a car (an object) is

p= mv

where

m is =the mass of the object( in this case car)

v is its= velocity

While the kinetic energy is is given by the formulae

K=1/2mv²

To determine how momentum and kinetic energy of the  car changes when the speed of the object triples, We have that the new velocity,

v¹= 3v

So that  the momentum  change becomes

p¹=mv¹=m (3v)= 3mv

mv=p

therefore p¹= 3p

we can see that the momentum also triples.

And the kinetic energy change  becomes

K¹=1/2m(v¹)²= 1/2m (3v)²

= 1/2m9v²= 1/2 x m x 9 x v²=9 x1/2mv²

1/2mv²=K

K¹= Kinetic energy = 9k

but Kinetic energy increases 9 times

another way, speed is a scalar value, while reloolg isa Which ONE of the following represents a toy car that moves at a higher a
erica [24]

Car  A will have highest speed is 83.3m/s .

<h3>What is speed ? </h3>

The rate of change of position of an object in any direction.

The S.I unit is m/s . Speed is a scalar quantity it defines only magnitude not direction

.

speed = distance /time

In case of Car A ,

We have given distance 150Km in 3 min ,

First we have convert the distance km to m

150×1000m

then conversion of min to sec

 38×60sec

speed = 15000/180

speed = 83.3m/sec

In case of Car B

we have given 800m in 150 min

lets convert the time into second

150×60

Speed = 800/150×60

speed = 0.88m/ s

In case of Car C

We have given here distance 250 Km and time in 8 hours

convert km to m

25000

and time into sec

88×60×60

speed = 0.86m/ s



Hence ,Car A has highest speed amongst them .

dangina [55]
I would say that insofar as the two stars temperatures are presumably closely related to their luminosity, that the blue star at 156,100 k compared to 3000k for the red star then the blue star has a luminosity of 52 times that of the red star.

What reactions do catalytic converters catalyze
Yuliya22 [10]
A catalytic converter is an exhaust emission control device that reduces toxic gases and pollutants in exhaust gas from an internal combustion engine into less-toxic pollutants by catalyzing a redox reaction (an oxidation and a reduction reaction).

Explain how a compass works using scientific terminology.
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

A compass works by detecting and responding to the Earth's natural magnetic fields. The Earth has an iron core that is part liquid and part solid crystal, due to gravitational pressure. It is believed that movement in the liquid outer core is what produces the Earth's magnetic field.
