he car 5 seconds to stop, the acceleration of the car is ____ m/s2.
a.
0.25 m/s2

b.

Answer:

c.

5 m/s2

Explanation:

Δv = at

a = Δv/t

a = (0 - 25)/5

a = 5 m/s²

a steel ball bearing is released from a height hhh and rebounds after hitting a steel plate to a height hhh. what is true about

lbvjy [14]

In collision of the steel ball and the steel plate, the collision is an inelastic collision and there is loss in the kinetic energy.

<h3>What are collisions?</h3>

Collisions occur when two objects that are moving in the same directions or in different direction meet each other and collide.

There are two types of collisions:

elastic collision - the kinetic energy is conserved
inelastic collision - there is a loss in kinetic energy

In the collision of the steel ball and the steel plate, there is loss in the kinetic energy of the steel ball which is converted to sound energy.

In conclusion, the collision of the steel and steel plate is an inelastic collision.

Calculated the measurement uncertainty for Kinetic Energy when :mass = 1.3[kg] +/- 0.4[kg]velocity= 5.2 [m/s] +/- 0.2 [m/s]KE= 1

andriy [413]

Answer:

$\rm KE\pm \Delta KE = 17.6\pm 6.8\ J.$

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

Mass, $\rm m\pm\Delta m = 1.3\pm 0.4\ kg.$

Velocity, $\rm v\pm \Delta v = 5.2\pm 0.2\ m/s.$

where,

$\rm \Delta m,\ \Delta v$ are the uncertainties in mass and velocity respectively.

The kinetic energy is given by

$\rm KE = \dfrac 12 mv^2 = \dfrac 12 \times 1.3\times 5.2^2=17.576\approx 17.6\ J.$

The uncertainty in kinetic energy is given as:

$\rm \dfrac{\Delta KE}{KE}=\dfrac{\Delta m}{m}+\dfrac{2\Delta v}{v}\\\dfrac{\Delta KE}{17.6}=\dfrac{0.4}{1.3}+\dfrac{2\times 0.2}{5.2}\\\dfrac{\Delta KE}{17.6}=0.384\\\Rightarrow \Delta KE = 17.6\times 0.384 = 6.7854\ J\approx6.8\ J\\\\Thus,\\\\KE\pm \Delta KE = 17.6\pm 6.8\ J.$
