Answer:

The final kinetic energy of the two-car system is 60,000 J.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the car, m = 1200 kg

time of motion, t = 8.8 s

final velocity of the car, v = 10 m/s

Apply the principle of conservation of kinetic energy; the initial kinetic energy is equal final kinetic energy.

K.E_i = K.E_f\\\\K.E_f = \frac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\K.E_f =  \frac{1}{2}(1200)(10)^2\\\\K.E_f = 60,000 \ J

Therefore, the final kinetic energy of the two-car system is 60,000 J.

A student is bicycling north along Main Street to school. Another student is timing the bicycling student in order to determine
MatroZZZ [7]

The average velocity is -4.17 m/s

Explanation:

The average velocity of a body is given by:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where

d is the displacement of the body

t is the time elapsed

For the student in this problem, we have:

Initial position: x_i = 450 m

Final position: x_f = 200 m

So the displacement is

d=x_f -x_i = 200 - 450 = -250 m

The time elapsed is

t = 60 s

Therefore, the average velocity is

v=\frac{-250}{60}=-4.17 m/s

Where the negative sign means the student is moving towards the origin.

Com que rapidez estará sendo feito trabalho elétrico num resistor de 10 ohms, percorrido por uma corrente elétrica de 5 A? Qual
34kurt

Poder = (resistencia) x (corrente)²

Poder = (10 ohms) x (5 A)²

<em>Poder = 250 watts </em>(250 Joule por segundo)

2 horas = 7,200 segundos

Energia = (250 joule/seg) x (7,200 seg)

<em>Energia = 1,800,000 Joules</em>

Anna [14]

The height attained by the ball is 11.86m

a ball is shot from the ground straight up into the air its initial and final velocity is

initial velocity, u = 50 ft/s = 50×0.305  = 15.25m/s

final velocity ,v = 0 m/s

gravity =-9.8 m/s²

( negative sign shows acceleration in opposite direction)

height =?

using the newton motion of equation

v² = u² + 2as

where

a= acceleration due to gravity(g)

s = height

v² = u² + 2gs

(0)² = (15.25)² + 2×(-9.8)×s

0  = (15.25)² -  19.6 × s

s= - (15.25)²/ 19.6

s = 11.86m

after ignoring the air resistance the maximum height of the ball is 11.86m
