<u>Answer:</u>

 950-kg subcompact car be moving to have the same kinetic energy of truck at 116.08 km/hr

<u>Explanation:</u>

  Kinetic energy of body with mass m and moving at velocity v is given by

                  KE=\frac{1}{2} mv^2

  KE of truck  = \frac{1}{2}*3.2*10^4*20^2

  KE of subcompact car = \frac{1}{2}*950*v^2

  Equating

         \frac{1}{2}*3.2*10^4*20^2= \frac{1}{2}*950*v^2\\ \\ v=116.08 km/hr

 So 950-kg subcompact car be moving to have the same kinetic energy of truck at 116.08 km/hr

Answer:

A) 60%

B) p2 = 1237.2 kPa

   v2 = 0.348 m^3

C) w1-2 = w3-4 = 1615.5 kJ

   Q2-3 = 60 kJ

Explanation:

A) calculate thermal efficiency

  Л = 1 - \frac{Tl}{Th}  

where Tl = 300 k

            Th = 750 k

hence thermal efficiency ( Л ) = [1 - ( 300 / 750 )] * 100 = 60%

B) calculate the pressure and volume at the beginning of the isothermal expansion

calculate pressure ( P2 )  :

= P3v3 = mRT3  ----- (1)

v3 = 0.4m , mR = 2* 0.287, T3 = 750

hence P3 = 1076.25

next equation to determine P2

Qex = p3v3 ln( p2/p3 )

60 = 1076.25 * 0.4 ln(p2/p3)

hence ; P2 = 1237.2 kpa

calculate volume ( V2 )

p2v2 = p3v3

v2 = p3v3 / p2

   = (1076.25 * 0.4 ) /  1237.2  

  = 0.348 m^3

C) calculate the work and heat transfer for each four processes

work :

W1-2 = mCv( T2 - T1 )

        = 2*0.718 ( 750 - 300 ) = 1615.5 kJ

W3-4 = 1615.5 kJ

heat transfer

Q2-3 = W2-3 = 60KJ

Q3-4 = 0

A football is thrown vertically with an initial velocity of 33m/s. Calculate the velocity of the ball when it’s height increased
tatyana61 [14]

The final velocity becomes 31.48 m/s

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Initial velocity, u = 33 m/s

Height, h = 5m

Final velocity, v = ?

According to Newton's law:

v² - u² = 2gh

where,

g is the acceleration due to gravity and

g = 9.8 m/s²

On substituting the values we get:

v^2 - (33)^2 = 2 X -9.8 X 5\\\\v^2 - 1089 = -98\\\\v^2 = 991\\\\v = 31.48 m/s

Therefore, the final velocity becomes 31.48 m/s

A Thomson's gazelle can run at very high speeds, but its acceleration is relatively modest. A reasonable model for the sprint of
NikAS [45]

Answer:

The gazelles top speed is 27.3 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Acceleration = 4.2 m/s²

Time = 6.5 s

Suppose we need to find the gazelles top speed

The speed is equal to the product of acceleration and time.

We need to calculate the gazelles top speed

Using formula of speed

v=at

Where, v = speed

a = acceleration

t = time

Put the value into the formula

v=4.2\times6.5

v=27.3\ m/s

Hence, The gazelles top speed is 27.3 m/s.

What does -9.8 m/s mean? And what does it mean if something has a negative velocity?
a_sh-v [17]

I can't guess what -9.8 m/s means until you tell me where it came from,
or what 'm/s' means.

If perhaps it has something to do with the acceleration of gravity on Earth,
then the correct figure is ' -9.8 m/s² '.  That means that any object that
has no other force acting on it except gravity has its speed changing by
9.8 meters per second every second.  Since it's gravity doing the job,
then the object's speed is either increasing down, or decreasing up. 

If an object has negative velocity, then it's moving in the direction opposite
to the direction that you decided to call positive when you started doing the
problem.

For example, if you decide that up is positive and down is negative, and
then somebody drops a stone from the top of a tall building, then the
gravitational force on the stone is negative (pointing down), its velocity
is negative (it's falling towards down), and its acceleration is negative (its
speed towards down is getting faster and faster).  Everything is negative,
only because you decided that up is positive and down is negative.  It's
nothing to be worried about.
