How does kinetic energy affect the stopping distance of a small vehicle compared to a large vehicle?

Physics

The equation for kinetic energy is KE=1/2mv^2
So if the small vehicle AND the large vehicle both had the same speed, the large vehicle would have more kinetic energy since it has greater mass, resulting in a much more larger stopping distance than the smaller car.

Please explain how to solve 17 and 18
andriy [413]

Answer:

17. h = l − l cos θ

18. 1.40 m

Explanation:

Let's call d the height of the triangle.  We can then say:

h = l − d

Using trig, we can write d in terms of l and θ:

d = l cos θ

h = l − l cos θ

If l = 6 m and l cos θ = 40°:

h = 6 − 6 cos 40

h ≈ 1.40

marin [14]

Answer:

a reference point allows you to determine the motion of an object :)

example: when your in a car and u look out the window and your moving fast than the car next to you. It seems that way because the car next to you is actually moving much slower.
