Answer:
108,000 joules
Step-by-step explanation:
Kinetic energy, k = 1/2 mv^2
Where,
m = mass of the object in kilogram
v = velocity in meters per seconds
If
Velocity of an object = 20 meters per seconds
Kinetic energy = 48,000 joules
Solve for m
k = 1/2 mv^2
48,000 = 1/2 × m × 20^2
48,000 = 1/2 × m × 400
48,000 = 200m
m = 48,000 / 200
m = 240 kg
If it speeds up to 30 meters per second, then what is its new kinetic energy?
k = 1/2 mv^2
Using m = 240 kg
k = 1/2 mv^2
= 1/2 × 240 × 30^2
= 1/2 × 240 × 900
= 216,000 / 2
= 108,000 joules
The new kinetic energy = 108,000 joules
The ratio of men to women in a certain factory = 3:4
The total number of men in the factory = 222
Let us assume the common ratio to be = x
Then
3x = 222
x = 222/3
= 74
Then
The total number of women workers in the factory = 4 * 74
= 296
So
The total number of workers in the factory = 296 + 222
= 518
From the above deduction we can easily conclude that there are a total of 518 workers in the factory.
