Answer:
41.8m/s^2
Explanation:
Since the dragster starts from rest, initial velocity (u) = 0m/s, final velocity (v) = 25.9m/s, time (t) = 0.62s
From the equations of motion, v = u + at
a = (v - u)/t = (25.9 - 0)/0.62 = 25.9/0.62 = 41.8m/s^2
Answer:
Mass, m = 125 kg
Explanation:
Let us assume that the question says, "What is the mass of an object whose velocity is 400 m/s and the kinetic energy of 10⁷ J.
The kinetic energy of an object is :

So, the mass of the object is 125 kg.
A. 
The orbital speed of the clumps of matter around the black hole is equal to the ratio between the circumference of the orbit and the period of revolution:

where we have:
is the orbital speed
r is the orbital radius
is the orbital period
Solving for r, we find the distance of the clumps of matter from the centre of the black hole:

B. 
The gravitational force between the black hole and the clumps of matter provides the centripetal force that keeps the matter in circular motion:

where
m is the mass of the clumps of matter
G is the gravitational constant
M is the mass of the black hole
Solving the formula for M, we find the mass of the black hole:

and considering the value of the solar mass

the mass of the black hole as a multiple of our sun's mass is

C. 
The radius of the event horizon is equal to the Schwarzschild radius of the black hole, which is given by

where M is the mass of the black hole and c is the speed of light.
Substituting numbers into the formula, we find

Answer:
Approximately
, assuming friction between the vehicle and the ground is negligible.
Explanation:
Let
denote the mass of the vehicle. Let
denote the initial velocity of the vehicle. Let
denote the spring constant (needs to be found.) Let
denote the maximum displacement of the spring.
Convert velocity of the vehicle to standard units (meters per second):
.
Initial kinetic energy (
) of the vehicle:
.
When the vehicle is brought to a rest, the elastic potential energy (
) stored in the spring would be:
.
By the conservation of energy, if the friction between the vehicle and the ground is negligible, the initial
of the vehicle should be equal to the
of the vehicle. In other words:
.
Rearrange this equation to find an expression for
, the spring constant:
.
Substitute in the given values
,
, and
:

Answer:
Explanation:
From the equation of Newton's laws of motion
v = u + at where v is final velocity , u is initial velocity and t is time.
150 = 0 + a x 3
a = 50 m / s ²
s = ut + 1/2 at² ; s is distance travelled
s = 50 x 3 + .5 x 50 x 3²
= 150 + 225
= 375 m .
