Answer:

200000 J

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (m) of roller coaster = 1000 Kg

Velocity (v) of roller coaster = 20 m/s

Kinetic energy (KE) =?

Kinetic energy is simply defined as the energy possess by an object in motion. Mathematically, it can be expressed as:

KE = ½mv²

Where

KE => is the kinetic energy.

m =>is the mass of the object

V => it the velocity of the object.

With the above formula, we can obtain the kinetic energy of the roller coaster as follow:

Mass (m) of roller coaster = 1000 Kg

Velocity (v) of roller coaster = 20 m/s

Kinetic energy (KE) =?

KE = ½mv²

KE = ½ × 1000 × 20²

KE = 500 × 400

KE = 200000 J

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the roller coaster is 200000 J.

A typical student listening attentively to a physics lecture has a heat output of 100 w . how much heat energy does a class of 1
nexus9112 [7]

Since each student emits 100 W, so 170 students will emit:

total heat = 100 W * 170 = 17,000 W

 

Convert minutes to seconds:

time = 50 min * (60 s / min) = 3000 s

 

The energy is therefore:

E = 17,000 W * 3000 s

<span>E = 51 x 10^6 J = 51 MJ</span>

A car has an acceleration of -5 m/s^2. Describe the car’s motion
AlladinOne [14]

Explanation:

because the acceleration is negative, this indicates a deceleration (or slowing down) . Hence we can say that:

The car is decelerating (slowing down), i.e its velocity is decreasing, at a constant rate of 5m/s².
