Kinetic energy =
1/2 (mass) • (velocity squared).
I don't see distance in that formula anywhere, so they're not related.
So you can have a understanding of what you are doing and figure out your overall goal
Answer:
1.76m/s²
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Initial velocity = 0m/s
Final velocity = 65m/s
Distance traveled = 1200m
Unknown:
Acceleration = ?
Solution:
This is linear velocity and we apply the appropriate motion equation to solve this problem.
V² = U² + 2as
S is the distance
u is the initial velocity
V is the final velocity
a is the acceleration
Now, insert the parameters and solve;
65² = 0² + 2 x a x 1200
4225 = 2400a
a = 1.76m/s²
Answer:
Increase in temperature = 269.54 °C
Explanation:
We have equation for thermal expansion
ΔL = LαΔT
Change in length, ΔL = 0.08 m
Length, L = 56 m
Coefficient of thermal expansion, α = 5.3 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻1
Change in temperature, ΔT = T - 253
Substituting
0.08 = 56 x 5.3 x 10⁻⁶ x (T - 253)
(T - 253) = 269.54
T = 522.54 °C
Increase in temperature = 269.54 °C
