Answer:

240000 Joules

Explanation:

Applying,

The work that must be done by the frictional force of the brake to stop the car must be equal to the kinetic energy of the car.

W = mv²/2.................. Equation 1

Where W = work done by the frictional force of the brake, m = mass of the car, v = velocity of the car.

From the question,

Given: m = 1200 kg, v = 20 m/s

Substitute these values into equation 1

W = (1200×20²)/2

W = 240000 Joules

If you push a crate across a factory floor at constant speed in a constant direction, what is the magnitude of the force of fric
poizon [28]

Answer:

The magnitude of the force of friction equals the magnitude of my push

Explanation:

Since the crate moves at a constant speed, there is no net acceleration and thus, my push is balanced by the frictional force on the crate. So, the magnitude of the force of friction equals the magnitude of my push.

Let F = push and f = frictional force and f' = net force

F - f = f' since the crate moves at constant speed, acceleration is zero and thus f' = ma = m (0) = 0

So, F - f = 0

Thus, F = f

So, the magnitude of the force of friction equals the magnitude of my push.

When landing after a spectacular somersault, a 35.0 kg gymnast decelerates by pushing straight down on the mat. calculate the fo
Sliva [168]

The deceleration experienced by the gymnast is the 9 times of the acceleration due to gravity.

Now from Newton`s  first law, the net force on gymnast,

F_{net} =F-W=ma

Here, W is the weight of the gymnast and a is the acceleration experienced by the gymnast (9\times g acceleration due to gravity)  

Therefore,

F= ma+W OR F=ma+mg=m(g+a)

Given m = 30 kg anda=9\times g=9\times 9.8 m/s^{2} =88.2 m/s^{2}

Substituting these values in above formula and calculate the force exerted by the gymnast,  

F=(40 kg) (88.2 m/s^{2} +9.8 m/s^{2} )

F=3.537\times10^{3}N
