A 1200 kg car is coasting on a horizontal road with a speed of 18 m/s . After passing over an unpaved, sandy stretch 35.0 m long, car's speed has decreased to 12 m/s .
Part A Was the net work done on the car positive, negative, or zero?
Part B Find the magnitude of the average net force on the car in the sandy section of the road. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
as, according to work energy principal the net work done in changing a motion of particle is equal to the change in its kinetic energy.
so,
W = KEf - KEi
where W is the work done, KEf and KEi are the final and initial kinetic energy of the car.
W = (1/2)×m×(vf^2 - vi^2)
where m is the mass of the car, vf and vi are the final and initial velocity of the car.
W = (1/2)(1200 kg)[(12 m/s)^2 - (18 m/s)^2] = -10800 J
(A) now, as we can see the net work done on the car is negative.
(B) F(avg) = W/d = (-10800 J)/(35 m) = -3085.71 N

stationary a Q5. A bull of is fired into a large statio absorber & comes to rest. Temperature measurement of the absorber shows that the ballef lost 1960J of Kinetic energy, f the high-speed photos of bullet shows that it was moving with 965 m just as it struck the absorber. What is the mass (m) of the bullet? Answer - car coasts Q6. A 1180-kg on a horizontal road with a speed of 19 m. After crossing an unpaved,...
A 1200-kg car is moving at 16.0 m/s due north. A 1500-kg car is moving at 20.0 m/s due east. The two cars simultaneously approach an icy intersection where, with no brakes or steering, they collide and stick together. 1) Determine the speed of the combined two-car wreck immediately after the collision. (Express your answer to two significant figures.) m/sm/s 2) Determine the direction of the combined two-car wreck immediately after the collision. (Express your answer to two significant figures.)
The car passes point A with a speed of 25 m/s after which its speed is defined by v = (25-0.15s) m/s. Determine the magnitude of the car's acceleration when it reaches point B, where s = 51.5 m and x = 50 m. Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.
Question 5.2a: A 1350-kg car is traveling with an initial speed of 26.0 m/s. Determine the car's speed after ?2.15 ? 105 J of net work is done on the car. m/s Question 5.2b: A 11.6-kg box is sliding across a horizontal floor. It has an initial speed of 1.40 m/s and the only force acting on it is kinetic friction with magnitude fk = 3.00 N. Determine the distance the box will travel before coming to rest. m
A car travels around a horizontal bend of radius 177 m at a constant speed. (a) If the coefficient of the static friction between the road and car tyres is us = 0.6 then what is the maximum speed that the car can negotiate the bend without sliding from the road? m/s Fil (b) What is the magnitude of car's acceleration at the speed calculated in (a)? m/s2 (c) Later, the road at the bend was modified so that the...
Name Rec. Inst. Hand-in-HW # A 1500 kg car coasting on a horizontal road hits a 500 kg moose. The moose is thrown through the windshield into the passenger compartment. What percent of the initial kinetic energy is lost (turned into non-mechanical forms of energy) in the collision? For thought: why does the initial speed of the car not matter but the fact that it is coasting does? I need the graph of the question and unit check Rep: ID:...
A 40000 kg freight car is coasting at a speed of 5.0 m/s along a straight level track when it strikes a 30000.kg stationary freight car and couples to it. What will be their combined speed after impact? 2.9 m/s O 3.3 m/s O 3.5 m/s O 3.7 m/s
When you take your 1200-kg car out for a spin, you go around a comer of radius 50 m with a speed of 20 m/s. The coefficient of static friction between the car and the road is 0.88. Assuming your car doesn't skid, what is the force exerted on it by static friction? Express your answer using two significant figures.
