A fast-moving car has 0.5 MJ of kinetic energy.

Physics
1 answer:
DerKrebs [107]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

-0.5 MW

Explanation:

For this we can use the principle of work and energy, which states that:

T₁ + ∑U₁₋₂ = T₂

Where T is kinetic energy (in situations one and two) and U is the sum of all work done (between situations one and two).

So, since the car is first moving with a kinetic energy of 0.5 MJ:

T₁ = 0.5 MJ = 0.5 · 10⁶ J

On top of this, we know that the car comes to a halt, using this as situation 2:

T₂ = 0 J

Filling in the equation:

⇒ 0.5 · 10⁶ + U = 0

⇒ U = -0.5· 10⁶ [W] (unit of work is watts)

       = -0.5 MW

Thinking about the sign convention, we see that the brake force will point to the back of the car (backward), and the distance the car will travel before stopping will be forward, oposite directions and thus negative work.

What is the number of wavelengths that pass a given point each second called?
denpristay [2]
Since waves are moving, we define frequency as the number of waves that pass a given point in a specified unit of time. The unit commonly used is Hertz which is the number of wave cycles that pass a point in one second.

 explain why earths acceleration is usually very small compared to the acceleration of the object the earth interact with
Marianna [84]

Answer:

F-ma

Explanation:

If you are speaking of objects like satellites, etc. then their mass is much less than that of the Earth. A good approximation is Newton's first law of motion:

Force = Mass ×  Acceleration

often written:

F = m a

The gravitational force is the same between the Earth and the object - only the mass differs. So the acceleration is inversely proportional to the mass.

Bradley gets an x-ray at a radiology clinic that employs its own technologists and radiologists. Would the coder at the clinic r
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Explanation:

If Bradley examination was done and interpreted in the same facility, the radiologist code is used example- procedure code 72100- Radiologic examination, spine, lumbosacral, 2 or 3 views is reported.

if the X-ray was taken by Dr X but Dr X does not read or interpret the image but forward it to the radiologist for initial report, then a 26- modifier is used. E.g A reports by the technologist would be, procedure code 72050-Radiologic examination, spine, cervical, 2 or 3

views or 72050- TC in certain situations and the consulting radiologist would report 72050-26.

if Bradley’s x-ray were sent to an independent radiologist for interpretation, then the procedure code 76140 is used in reporting.
