Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Kinetic energy is the energy of an object or particle when it is in motion.
Mathematically, Kinetic energy =
It is given that toy truck has mass = 0.75 kg, and velocity = 4 m/s.
Calculate the kinetic energy as follows.
Kinetic energy =
=
=
=
=
or, Kinetic energy = 6 joules
Thus, we can conclude that kinetic energy of toy truck is 6 J.
Answer:
s = 1.7 m
Explanation:
from the question we are given the following:
Mass of package (m) = 5 kg
mass of the asteriod (M) = 7.6 x 10^{20} kg
radius = 8 x 10^5 m
velocity of package (v) = 170 m/s
spring constant (k) = 2.8 N/m
compression (s) = ?
Assuming that no non conservative force is acting on the system here, the initial and final energies of the system will be the same. Therefore
• Ei = Ef
• Ei = energy in the spring + gravitational potential energy of the system
• Ei = \frac{1}{2}ks^{2} + \frac{GMm}{r}
• Ef = kinetic energy of the object
• Ef = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}
• \frac{1}{2}ks^{2} + (-\frac{GMm}{r}) = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}
• s =
s =
s = 1.7 m
