A car jumps off a ramp with a Kinetic energy of 5,000 joules. This same car has a gravitational potential energy of 4,685 joules
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

14,653 J.

Explanation:

We know that,

Total mechanical energy is equal to the sum of all the potential and kinetic energies.

Given,

Kinetic energy when a car jumps off a ramp= 5000 J

Potential energy = 4685 J

Potential energy when the car lands= 4968 J

TME = 5000 + 4685 + 4968

        = 14,653 J

Hence, the car's total mechanical engery is equal to 14,653 J.

(a) A force F = (3xî + 4yĵ), where F is in newtons and x and y are in meters, acts on an object as the object moves in the x-dir
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

W = 53.6648 J

Explanation:

W = ∫ F * dr

F = < 4*x i , 3*y j > Newtons

dr = < dx, 0 >

Take the dot product:

F * dr = 4* x * dx

Now replacing numeric

W = ∫ 4 * x * dx , ║ x = ( 0 m ⇒ 5.18 m )

W = ¹ / ₂ * (4 N/m) * x ²  

W = (2 N/m) * (5.18 m)²

W = 53.6648 J
