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.

How much power does a 2000 kg car need to accelerate from 20 m/s to 35 m/s in 7 seconds?
Alexus [3.1K]

firstly you get your acceleration with the formula, a=v-u/t. Then you use the formula for kinetic energy 1/2mv^2

then you can finally get the answer for power by dividing your previous answer by the time

Someone help please.....
Westkost [7]

Answer:

0.0928km/min (4dp)

Explanation:

To find the jogger's speed in km per minute, we just need to divide the number of km jogged by the time in minutes it took to jog that distance. This will give us the distance they jogged every minute which is their speed.

4km in 32 minutes:

4/32 = 0.125km/min

2km in 22 minutes:

2/22 = 0.091 (3dp)km/min

1km in 16 minutes:

0.0625km/min

Now to find the average speed of these 3 speeds, we just add them all together and divide by how many values there are (3 values).

Average (mean)  = \frac{0.125+0.091+0.0625}{3}

Average = 0.2785/3

Average speed of jogger = 0.0928 (4dp) km/min

Hope this helped!

A cue stick hits a cue ball with an average force of 22 N for a duration of 0.029 s. If the mass of the ball is 0.15 kg, how fas
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

4.25 m/s

Explanation:

Force, F = 22 N

Time, t = 0.029 s

mass, m = 0.15 kg

initial velocity of the cue ball, u = 0

Let v be the final velocity of the cue ball.

Use newton's second law

Force = rate of change on momentum

F = m (v - u) / t

22 = 0.15 ( v - 0) / 0.029

v = 4.25 m/s

Thus, the velocity of cue ball after being struck is 4.25 m/s.
