Determine the energy lost, due to friction, as an 8000 N car that skids to a stop, if its initial velocity was 12 m/s.

Physics

Answer:

<em>58,800Joules</em>

Explanation:

The energy lost is equal to the workdone by the car as it skids.

Workdone = Force * Distance

Given

Force = 8000N

Get the distance using the equation of motion

v² = u² - 2gS

0² = 12² - 2(9.8)S

-12² =  - 2(9.8)S

-144 = -19.6S

S = 144/19.6

S = 7.35m

Calculate the required energy

Workdone = 8000 * 7.35

Workdone = 58,800Joules

<em>Hence the energy lost due to friction is 58,800Joules</em>

Some cities now implement signal lights designed to specifically apply to _____ rather than motorized vehicles.
dmitriy555 [2]

The correct answer is C; Bicycles.

Further Explanation:

In major cities, in the United States, have implemented signal lights specifically designed for bicycle riders. The riders also have their own designated bike lanes in many large cities. Drivers in vehicles, are to give the right of way to people on bicycles.

Bicycle riders are to follow the same laws and laws specifically for the riders or they can face fines and tickets.

A railroad car is pulled through the distance of 960 m by a train that did 578 kJ of work during this pull.
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

<h2>602.08 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force supplied by the train can be found by using the formula

f =   \frac{w}{d}  \\

w is the workdone

d is the distance

From the question we have

f =  \frac{578000}{960}  \\  = 602.083333...

We have the final answer as

<h3>602.08 N</h3>

Hope this helps you

Planets A and B have the same mass, but planet A is half the size of planet B.
pychu [463]

Answer:

c. You would weigh less on planet A because the distance between

you and the planet's center of gravity would be smaller.

Explanation:

The statement that best describes your weight on each planet is that you would weigh less on planet A because the distance between you and the planet's center of gravity would be smaller.

  • This is based on Newton's law of universal gravitation which states that "the force of gravity between two bodies is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distances between them".

Since weight is dependent on the force of gravity and mass, the planet with more gravitational pull will have masses on them weighing more.

  • Since the distance between the person and the center of the planet is smaller, therefore, the weight will be lesser.

5. A family of ducks is swimming in a pond at a speed of 3 m/s when a gust of wind hits them. By the time they reach the other s
ella [17]

Answer:

The time taken by the duck to cross the lake is, t= 4 s

Explanation:

Given data,

The initial speed of the ducks, u = 3 m/s

The final speed of the ducks, v = 7 m/s

The acceleration of the duck, a = 1 m/s²

The formula for the acceleration is,

                               a = (v - u) / t

∴                               t = (v - u) / a

Substituting the given values in the above equation,

                                t = (7 - 3) / 1

                                  = 4 s

Hence, the time taken by the duck to cross the lake is, t= 4 s
