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.

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>

An object is placed 9.5 cm in front of a convex spherical mirror. Its image forms 3.2 cm behind the mirror. What is the radius o
o-na [289]

Using the mirror formula.

1/v + 1/u = 1/f

1/9.5 + 1/3.2 = 1/f

1/f = 3.2 + 9.5 / 9.5 * 3.2

1/f = 4.82 cm

Radius = 2f

Radius = 2 x 4.82

Radius = 9.64 cm

You are in a planet where the acceleration due to gravity is known to be 3.28 m/s^2. You drop a ball and record that the ball ta

B) 7.87 m/s

The gravitational pull is the rate of change of velocity which is the acceleration. Formula for acceleration is;
a =  \frac{final \: velocity - initial \: velocity}{time \: taken}

Given:

• Initial velocity = 0m/s; I dropped the ball, and didn't throw it, so it was at rest firstly
• Time taken = 2.40s
• Acceleration = 3.28m/s^2

We're require to find the final velocity, at which the ball hit the ground with. Ignoring air resistance, keep in mind that the velocity of an object increases as it comes closer to the ground.

3.28  =  \frac{final \: velocity - 0}{2.40}
3.28 \times 2.40 = final \: velocity
final \: velocity = 7.872 \frac{m}{ {s} }

To measure the height of a building without a ruler or tape measure, an engineer drops a rock off the top of the building and fi
serg [7]

The relevant equation we can use in this problem is:

h = v0 t + 0.5 g t^2

where h is height, v0 is initial velocity, t is time, g is gravity

 

Since it was stated that the rock was drop, so it was free fall and v0 = 0, therefore:

h = 0 + 0.5 * 9.81 m/s^2 * (4.9 s)^2
