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:
but where is the question ?
Explanation:
<em>hope</em><em> it</em><em> </em><em>works</em><em> out</em>
Answer:
the size of the shadow will be smaller due to smaller hands
This is where we have to admit that gravitational potential energy is
one of those things that depends on the "frame of reference", or
'relative to what?'.
Potential energy = (mass) x (gravity) x (<em>height</em>).
So you have to specify <em><u>height above what</u></em> .
-- With respect to the ground, the ball has zero potential energy.
(If you let go of it, it will gain zero kinetic energy as it falls to
the ground.)
-- With respect to the floor in your basement, the potential energy is
(3) x (9.8) x (3 meters) = 88.2 joules.
(If you let go of it, it will gain 88.2 joules of kinetic energy as it falls
to the floor of your basement.)
-- With respect to the top of that 10-meter hill over there, the potential
energy is
(3) x (9.8) x (-10) = -294 joules
(Its potential energy is negative. After you let go of it, you have to give it
294 joules of energy that it doesn't have now, in order to lift it to the top of
the hill <em>where it will have zero</em> potential energy.)
Radar waves are the waves with the lowest energy.
