The electrical equivalent of one horsepower is 746 watts in the International System of Units (SI), and the heat equivalent is 2,545 BTU (British Thermal Units) per hour. Another unit of power is the metric horsepower, which equals 4,500 kilogram-metres per minute (32,549 foot-pounds per minute), or 0.9863 horsepower.
...the potential energy that you build while going up the hill on the roller coaster could be let go as kinetic energy -- the energy of motion that takes you down the hill of the roller coaster.
Speed = (frequency) x (wavelength)
Speed = (19 per second) x (7 mm)
Speed = (19 x 7) (per second · mm)
<em>Speed = 133 mm/sec</em>
or you might want to write <em>Speed = 0.133 m/s</em> .
Answer:
8000J
Explanation:
The kinetic energy of the car lost during breaking are converted to thermal energy and are gained by the brakes.
Kinetic energy loss by car = thermal energy gained by brakes.
∆K.E = ∆T.E ....1
The Kinetic energy loss by car can be expressed as;
∆K.E = K.E1 - K.E2
Initial K.E = K.E1 = 10000J
Final K.E = K.E2 = 2000J
∆K.E= 10000J - 2000J = 8000J
From equation 1,
∆K.E = ∆T.E
∆T.E = 8,000J
thermal energy gain by brakes = 8,000J
Answer: The 1 kg fragment will have three times the speed of the 3kg fragment.
Explanation:Here for the bomb, its chemical energy gets converted into the mechanical energy.
According to the law of conservation of momentum, the two bodies will have equal momentum and to satisfy this condition the lighter mass will have the higher velocity.
∵ momentum, p = mass × velocity
∴The 1 kg fragment will have three times the speed of the 3kg fragment.
