The formula for kinetic energy is:

KE = 0.5mv^2

where:
m = mass
v = speed

Given this formula, the original KE of the scooter is calculated as 392 J. Since the speed is doubled, it can be observed in the formula that the change would actually affect the kinetic energy by quadrupling it. This is because 2^2 is 4. So, 392(4) = 1568 J or B.

If a 110 kg go-cart traveling at a velocity of 13.41 m/s has a collision with an impulse of 615 Nxs, what is the
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

5.59 m/s

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass = 110 kg

Initial velocity: u = 13.41 m/s

Force = 615 N

Time(t) = 1 s

Now, the formula for force is;

Force = mass x acceleration

Thus;

615 = 110 × acceleration

\Acceleration(a) = 615/110 = 5.591 m/s²

Now, using Newton's first law of motion, we can find acceleration (a). Thus;

v = u + at

v = 13.41 + (5.591 × 1)

v ≈ 19 m/s

So,the change in velocity is;

Final velocity(v) - Initial velocity(u) = 19 - 13.41 = 5.59 m/s

A ball is falling at terminal velocity. Terminal velocity occurs when the ball is in equilibrium and the forces are balanced. Wh
Greeley [361]

Answer:

A free body diagram with 2 forces: the first pointing downward labeled F Subscript g Baseline 20 N and the second pointing upward labeled F Subscript air Baseline 20 N.

Explanation:

This is because at terminal velocity, the ball stops accelerating and the net force on the ball is zero. For the net force to be zero, equal and opposite forces must act on the ball, so that their resultant force is zero. That is F₁ + F₂ = 0 ⇒ F₁ = -F₂

Since F₁ = 20 N, then F₂ = -F₁ = -20 N

So, if F₁ points upwards since it is positive, then F₂ points downwards since it is negative.

So, a free body diagram with 2 forces: the first pointing downward labeled F Subscript g Baseline 20 N and the second pointing upward labeled F Subscript air Baseline 20 N best describes the ball falling at terminal velocity.

The weight of a 72.0 kg astronaut on the Moon, where g = 1.63 m/s2 is (5 points) Select one: a. 112 N b. 117 N c. 135 N d. 156 N
kipiarov [429]

Answer: The weight of a 72.0 kg astronaut on the Moon is 117.36 N.

Explanation:

Mass of the astronaut on the moon , m= 72 kg

Acceleration due to gravity on moon,g  = 1.63 m/s^2

According to Newton second law of motion: F = ma

This will changes to = Weight = mass × g

Weight=72 kg\times 1.63m/s^2=117.36 N

The weight of a 72.0 kg astronaut on the Moon is 117.36 N.

23. While sliding a couch across a floor, Andrea and Jennifer exert forces F → A and F → J on the couch. Andrea’s force is due n
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

a)  (95.4 i^ + 282.6 j^) N , b) 298.27 N  71.3º and c)   F' = 298.27 N   θ = 251.4º

Explanation:

a) Let's use trigonometry to break down Jennifer's strength

      sin θ = Fjy / Fj

      cos θ = Fjx / Fj

Analyze the angle is 32º east of the north measuring from the positive side of the x-axis would be

          T = 90 -32 = 58º

         Fjy = Fj sin 58

         Fjx = FJ cos 58

         Fjx = 180 cos 58 = 95.4 N

         Fjy = 180 sin 58 = 152.6 N

Andrea's force is

         Fa = 130.0 j ^

We perform the summary of force on each axis

X axis

       Fx = Fjx

       Fx = 95.4 N

Axis y

       Fy = Fjy + Fa

       Fy = 152.6 + 130

       Fy = 282.6 N

       F = (95.4 i ^ + 282.6 j ^) N

b) Let's use the Pythagorean theorem and trigonometry

       F² = Fx² + Fy²

       F = √ (95.4² + 282.6²)

       F = √ (88963)

       F = 298.27 N

       tan θ = Fy / Fx

       θ = tan-1 (282.6 / 95.4)

       θ = tan-1 (2,962)

       θ = 71.3º

c) To avoid the movement they must apply a force of equal magnitude, but opposite direction

       F' = 298.27 N

       θ' = 180 + 71.3

       θ = 251.4º
