A car of mass 2 320 kg is descending a sloping road, inclined at 10.0° to the horizontal. The driver sees a hazard and brakes to

make an emergency stop. The distance travelled while braking is 22.5 m.
The initial speed of the car was 13.4 m s−1. Calculate the average braking force. Assume air resistance is negligible.

f = 1.32×10^4 N

Explanation:

We can use the work-energy theorem to find the work done by the braking force f:

W = ∆KE + ∆PE

= (KEf - KEi) + (PEf - PEi)

= [(1/2)mvf^2 - (1/2)mvi^2] + (mhf - mghi)

At the bottom of the slope, vf = 0 and hf = 0 and hi = dsin10° (d = braking distance) so work W becomes

W = -[(1/2)mvi^2 + mgdsin10°]

= -m[(1/2)vi^2 + gdsin10°]

= -(2320kg)[(1/2)(13.4m/s)^2 + (9.8 m/s^2)(22.5m)sin10]

= -2.97×10^5 J

Since W = fd, where f is the braking force, we can now solve for f:

f = W/d = (-2.97×10^5 J)/(22.5 m)

= -1.32×10^4 N

Note: the negative sign means that it is a dissipative force.

True [87]

Answer:

\Delta T=3.615^{\circ}C is the drop in the water temperature.

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of ice, m_i=14.7\ g=0.0147\ kg
  • mass of water, m_w=324\ g=0.324\ kg

Assuming the initial temperature of the ice to be 0° C.

<u>Apply the conservation of energy:</u>

  • Heat absorbed by the ice for melting is equal to the heat lost from water to melt ice.

<u>Now from the heat equation:</u>

Q_i=Q_w

m_i.L=m_w.c_w.\Delta T ......................(1)

where:

L= latent heat of fusion of ice =333.55\ J.g^{-1}

c_w= specific heat of water =4.186\ J.g^{-1}.^{\circ}C^{-1}

\Delta T= change in temperature

Putting values in eq. (1):

14.7 \times 333.55=324\times 4.186\times \Delta T

\Delta T=3.615^{\circ}C is the drop in the water temperature.

A certain spring stores 10.0J of potential energy when it isstretched by 2.00cm from its equilibrium position.How much potential
qaws [65]

Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

x= 0.02 m

E_p= 10.0 J

E_p= 0.5kx^2

10= 0.5k(0.02)^2

solving we get

K= 50.0 N/m

Now

E'_p= 0.5kx'^2

E'_p= 0.5×50×(0.04)^2

E'_p=40 J

b) potential energy is a scalar quantity and it only depends magnitude and not direction so it will remain same in compression and expansion both

c) 20 J = 0.5×50,000×x^2

solving

x= 0.028 m

d) k is 50.0 N/m  from above calculation

What happens to a sample of matter when it’s particles lose kinetic energy?
Mrrafil [7]
What will happen if the sample is the
Featured snippet from the web
When a sample of solid, liquid, or gas matter heats up, it expands. When matter gets hot, its particles gain kinetic energy. ... When matter cools down, its particles lose kinetic energy. The decreased kinetic energy lets the particles come closer together. The kinetic theory of matter can be used to explain how solids, liquids and gases are interchangeable as a result of increase or decrease in heat energy. ... If it is cooled the motion of the particles decreases as they lose energy.
