Answer:

the theoretical maximum energy in kWh that can be recovered during this interval is 0.136 kWh

Explanation:

Given that;

weight of vehicle = 4000 lbs

we know that 1 kg = 2.20462

so

m = 4000 / 2.20462 =  1814.37 kg

Initial velocity V_{i} = 60 mph = 26.8224 m/s

Final velocity V_{f} = 30 mph = 13.4112 m/s

now we determine change in kinetic energy

Δk = \frac{1}{2}m(  V_{i}² - V_{f}² )

we substitute

Δk = \frac{1}{2}×1814.37( (26.8224)² - (13.4112)² )

Δk = \frac{1}{2} × 1814.37 × 539.5808

Δk = 489500 Joules

we know that; 1 kilowatt hour = 3.6 × 10⁶ Joule

so

Δk = 489500 / 3.6 × 10⁶

Δk = 0.13597 ≈ 0.136 kWh

Therefore, the theoretical maximum energy in kWh that can be recovered during this interval is 0.136 kWh

A powerful motorcycle can produce an acceleration of 3.00 m/s2 while traveling at 90.0 km/h. At that speed the forces resisting
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

1185 N

Explanation:

From Newton’s second law of motion,  

F=ma where m= mass of motorcycle, a is acceleration of the motorcycle and F=Force

Net force acting on motorcycle F_{net} is given by  F_{net}=F-f

Where F is force acting on motorcycle and f is frictional force

Substituting F-f for F_{net}

F_{net}=ma hence  ma= F- f Substituting a with 3, m with 245Kg and f with 450N as provided

245*3= F- 450

F=245*3 +450= 1185 N

Two 25.0N weights are suspended at opposite ends of a rope that passes over a frictionless pulley. What is the tension in the ro
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

tension in rope = 25.0 N

Explanation:

  • Two forces act on the suspended weight. The force coming down is the gravitational force and the upward force by the tension in the rope.
  • Since the suspended weight is not accelerating so that the net force will be zero. Therefore the tension in the rope should be 25 N.

       ∑F = F - W = 0

       so

       F = W

       so tension in rope = F  = T  = 25 N

\text{Acceleration}=\frac{d^2}{dt^2}\text{displacement}
So the dimensions of acceleration is LT^{-2}
Any answer that comes under that definition is correct.
