To drive your car from Auburn to Atlanta (173.8 km) takes a significant amount of work. Assuming the force of friction between t

he tires and the road is 10290 N, how much work needed to drive that far? Express your answer in megajoules (MJ).

Answer:

1788.402 MJ

Explanation:

Work done = Force (N) x distance (m)

First we have to convert distance into metres:

173.8 x 1000 = 173,800 m

Then plug these values into the equation above:

173,800 x 10290 = 1788402000 J

The reason it's Joules (the unit for energy) is because work done = energy transferred

Now we have to convert Joules into Mega Joules:

1 J = 1/1000000 MJ

1788402000 J = 1788402000/ 1000000 = 1788.402 MJ

Determine the kinetic energy of a 625-kg roller coaster car that is moving with a speed of 10 m/s.
abruzzese [7]

Hi there!

Kinetic energy can be calculated using the following:

\large\boxed{KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2}}

Where:

KE = Kinetic energy (J)

m = mass (kg)

v = velocity (m/s)

Plug in the given values:

KE = \frac{1}{2}(625)(10^2) = \boxed{31250J}

vfiekz [6]

Explanation:

Given that, you are taking a picture of a giraffe that is standing far away from you. The image is just too small, so you swap the 60-mm-focal-length lens in your camera for a 960 mm telephoto lens such that,

m_1=960\ mm

m_2=60\ mm

We need to find the the factor with which the size of the image increases. It can be calculated by taking ratios of both m_1\ and\ m_2

So, \dfrac{m_1}{m_2}=\dfrac{960}{60}

\dfrac{m_1}{m_2}=16

So, the size of image increases by a factor of 16. Hence, this is the required solution.
