Over time, the types of technology can vary and be improved upon so that more advanced techniques become more valued. This could be the situation with mining whereby back in the 1500's in underground mines the rock was broken by fire setting ie lighting a fire below the rock face to heat up the rock and then throwing cold water on it to crack it, so that it could be dug by hand. With the advent of explosives, this all changed so that the rock could be blasted. The increase in advance rates for an underground heading have thus gone from 5-20 feet per month to up to 300meters (984 ft) per month for a 24/7 mining operation, which is a huge improvement.
Answer:
21.21 m/s
Explanation:
Let KE₁ represent the initial kinetic energy.
Let v₁ represent the initial velocity.
Let KE₂ represent the final kinetic energy.
Let v₂ represent the final velocity.
Next, the data obtained from the question:
Initial velocity (v₁) = 15 m/s
Initial kinetic Energy (KE₁) = E
Final final energy (KE₂) = double the initial kinetic energy = 2E
Final velocity (v₂) =?
Thus, the velocity (v₂) with which the car we travel in order to double it's kinetic energy can be obtained as follow:
KE = ½mv²
NOTE: Mass (m) = constant (since we are considering the same car)
KE₁/v₁² = KE₂/v₂²
E /15² = 2E/v₂²
E/225 = 2E/v₂²
Cross multiply
E × v₂² = 225 × 2E
E × v₂² = 450E
Divide both side by E
v₂² = 450E /E
v₂² = 450
Take the square root of both side.
v₂ = √450
v₂ = 21.21 m/s
Therefore, the car will travel at 21.21 m/s in order to double it's kinetic energy.

Answer:
1.28 m
Explanation:
As shown in the diagram attached,
According to the principle of moment,
For a body at equilibrium,
Sum of clockwise moment = sum of anticlockwise moment.
Taking moment about the pivot,
W₁(1.6)+W(0.133) = W₂(x)............... Equation 1
Where W₁ = Weight of the first child, Wₓ = Weight of the seesaw, W₂ = weight of the second child, x = distance of the second child from the pivot.
But,
W = mg
Where g = 9.8 m/s², m = mass of the body
Therefore,
W₁ = 26×9.8 = 254.8 N,
Wₓ = 18×9.8 = 176.4 N
W₂ = 34.4×9.8 = 337.12 N
Substitute these values into equation 1
(254.8×1.6)+(176.4×0.133) = 337.12(x)
407.68+23.4612 = 337.12x
337.12x = 431.1412
x = 431.1412/337.12
x = 1.2789
x ≈ 1.28 m
