The work done to stop the car is -208.33 kJ

From work-kinetic energy principles, the change in kinetic energy of the car ,ΔK equals the work done to stop the car, W.

W = ΔK = 1/2m(v'² - v²) where

m = mass of car = 1500 kg,
v = initial velocity of car = 60 km/h = 60 × 1000 m/3600 s = 16.67 m/s and
v' = final velocity of car = 0 m/s (since the car stops).

<h3 /><h3>Calculating the work done</h3>

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

W = 1/2m(v'² - v²)

W = 1/2 × 1500 kg(v(0 m/s)² - (16.67 m/s)²)

W = 750 kg(0 (m/s)² - 277.78 (m/s)²)

W = 750 kg(- 277.78 (m/s)²)

W = -208333.33 J

W = -208.33333 kJ

W ≅ -208.33 kJ

So, the work done to stop the car is -208.33 kJ

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Explanation:

If the initial velocity is U

Then the horizontal component of the velocity is

Ux= Ucosθ

Then the range for a projectile is give as

R=Ux.t

Where t is the time of flight

The time of flight is given as

t=2USinθ/g

Therefore,

R=Ux.t

R=UCosθ.2USinθ/g

R=U^2×2SinθCosθ/g

Then, from trigonometric ratio

2SinθCosθ= Sin2θ

R=U^2Sin2θ/g

Given that θ=32° and g=9.81m/s^2

Then

R=U^2Sin2×32/9.81

R=U^2Sin64/9.81

R=0.0916U^2

Then, range is given by R=0.0916U^2

A=0.0916U^2.

The box is at a distance A from the point of projection. Then the range R=A

R=0.0916U^2

A=0.0916U^2

Then,

U^2=A/0.0916

U^2=10.915A

Then the initial velocity should be

U=√10.915A

U=3.3√A

One end of a rope is tied to the handle of a horizontally-oriented and uniform door. a force f is applied to the other end of th

Vlada [557]

For rotational equilibrium of the door we can say that torque due to weight of the door must be counter balanced by the torque of external force

$F\times L = mg \times \frac{L}{2}$

here weight will act at mid point of door so its distance is half of the total distance where force is applied

here we know that

$mg = 145 N$

now we will have

$F = \frac{mg}{2}$

$F = \frac{145}{2} = 72.5 N$

so our applied force is 72.5 N
