Answer:
The work done by the gravel to stop the truck is 520.44 kJ
Explanation:
<u>Step 1</u>: Data given
Mass of the truck = 3047.8 kg
The ramp has an angle of 9.5 °
Velocity of the truck = 20.68 m/s
distance = 26.6 meters
<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate initial kinetic energy
sin 9.5° = 0.165
h = ℓ*sin 9.5° = 26.6*0.165= 4.39 m
Ek = 1/2m*Vo² = 1/2*3047.8*20.68² = 651714.7 Joule = 651.7 kJ = initial kinetic energy
<u>Step 3: </u>Calculate potential energy
Epot = U = m*g*h = 3047.8*9.81*4.39 = 131256.25 Joule = 131.26 kJ
<u>Step 4:</u> What work is done by the truck on the gravel?
Frictional energy Ef = 651.7 kJ - 131.26 kJ = 520.44 kJ
By the law of momentum conservation:-
=>m¹u¹ + m²u² = m1v1 + m²v² {let East is +ve}
=>u¹ + u² = v¹ + v² {as m1=m2}
=>3.5 - 2.75 = v1-1.5
<span>
=>v¹ = 2.25 m/s (East) </span>
Answer:
here north are not vector option b hope ur help
The correct option is C) The angle between the vectors is 120°.
Why?
We can solve the problem and find the correct option using the Law of Cosine.
Let A and B, the given two sides and R the resultant (sum),
Then,
So, using the law of cosines, we have:
Hence, we have that the angle between the vectors is 120°. The correct option is C) The angle between the vectors is 120°
Have a nice day!
