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.

the friction force provided by the brakes is 30000 N.

<h3>What is friction force?</h3>

Friction force is the force that opposes the motion between two bodies in contact.

To calculate the average friction force provided by the brakes, we apply the formula below.

Formula:

  • K.E = F'd............. Equation 1

Where:

  • K.E = Kinetic energy of the train
  • F' = Friction force provided by the brakes
  • d = distance

Make F' the subject of the equation

  • F' = K.E/d............ Equation 2

From the question,

Given:

  • K.E = 8.1×10⁶
  • d = 270 m

Substitute these values into equation 2

  • F' = (8.1 ×10⁶)/270
  • F' = 30000 N

Hence, the friction force provided by the brakes is 30000 N

A 2.2-kg block slides on a horizontal surface with a speed of v=0.80m/s and an
mina [271]

Answer:

μ = 0.33

Equal to 3.2 m/s²

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the block.  There are three forces:

Normal force N pushing up.

Weight force mg pulling down.

Friction force Nμ pushing opposite the direction of motion.

Sum of forces in the y direction.

∑F = ma

N − mg = 0

N = mg

Sum of forces in the x direction.

∑F = ma

Nμ = ma

Substitute.

mgμ = ma

μ = a/g

μ = (3.2 m/s²) / (9.8 m/s²)

μ = 0.33

As found earlier, the acceleration is a = gμ.  Since g and μ are constant, a is also constant, so it does not change with velocity.

A student with a mass of 62.0 kg walks up a flight of stairs with a height of 3.40 meters. If it takes him 7.00 seconds to get t
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

Power generate by generator = 265 W (Approx.)

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of student = 62 kg

Height of stairs = 3.4 meter

Time taken = 7 second

Find:

Power generate by generator

Computation:

Power = Force x [Distance / Time]

Power = [Mass x gravitational acceleration] x [Distance / Time]

Power = [62 x 9.8][3.4/7]

Power = [607.6][3.4/7]

Power = 265.12

Power generate by generator = 265.12

Power generate by generator = 265 W (Approx.)
