Answer:
1. 100 J
2. 225 J
Explanation:
We'll begin by calculating the mass of the object. This can be obtained as follow:
Velocity (v) = 5 ms¯¹
Kinetic energy (KE) = 25 J
Mass (m) =?
KE = ½mv²
25 = ½ × m × 5²
25 = ½ × m × 25
25 = 25m / 2
Cross multiply
25m = 25 × 2
25m = 50
Divide both side by 25
m = 50 / 25
m = 2 Kg
1. Determination of the kinetic energy when the velocity is doubled.
Mass (m) = 2 Kg
Velocity (v) = double the initial velocity
= 2 × 5 ms¯¹
= 10 ms¯¹
Kinetic energy (KE) =?
KE = ½mv²
KE = ½ × 2 × 10²
KE = ½ × 2 × 100
KE = 100 J
2. Determination of the kinetic energy when the velocity increased three times.
Mass (m) = 2 Kg
Velocity (v) = three times the initial velocity
= 3 × 5 ms¯¹
= 15 ms¯¹
Kinetic energy (KE) =?
KE = ½mv²
KE = ½ × 2 × 15²
KE = ½ × 2 × 225
KE = 225 J
Velocity is a vector quantity i.e. it has both magnitude and direction
Speed is a scalar quantity i.e. it has only magnitude
Answer:
Ek = 1705.28 [J]
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem, we must remember that kinetic energy can be calculated by means of the following equation.

where:
m = mass [kg]
v = velocity [m/s]
Ek = kinetic energy [J] (Units of Joules)

The difference in Kinetic energy is equal to:
Ek = 2025 - 319.72
Ek = 1705.28 [J]
Answer:
a) The velocity of the car is 7.02 m/s and the car is approaching to the police car as the frequency of the police car is increasing.
b) The frequency is 1404.08 Hz
Explanation:
If the police car is a stationary source, the frequency is:
(eq. 1)
fs = frequency of police car = 1200 Hz
fa = frequency of moving car as listener
v = speed of sound of air
vc = speed of moving car
If the police car is a stationary observer, the frequency is:
(eq. 2)
Now,
fL = frequecy police car receives
fs = frequency police car as observer
a) The velocity of car is from eq. 2:

b) Substitute eq. 1 in eq. 2:
