What is the kinetic energy of a 2000 kg car that is moving at 50 km per hour?

Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)2

KE = (1/2) (2,000) [ (50 km/hr) x (1,000 m/km) / (3,600 sec/hr) ]2

= (1,000) (192.9) = 192,901.2 joules (rounded)

How many seconds does it take a car traveling 45mph to travel 420 feet?

1 mile = 5280 ft

1 hour = 3600 seconds

45mph = 45 x 5280 / 3600 ft/s

=66ft/s

420ft / 66ft/s ~= 6.36 seconds

How do you calculate energy input for lifting objects by weight and height lifted?

When an object is lifted to a certain height, the mechanical energy of the person or system lifting the object gets transferred into the potential energy of the object. Thus if an object of mass/weight 'm' is lifted to a height 'h', then the potential energy possed by the object at height 'h' is given as: Potential Energy (P.E)= m*g*h, where g is acceleration due to gravity and whose value is 9.8 m/s2.

If a fly is in a car that is traveling sixty MPH is the fly flying at sixty MPH?

No, the fly's speed is relative to the space it is in, the air it is flying in is moving with the car, but static inside. It would, however, be different if the windows were open. The same would apply to environments like inside of an airplane or a train. Also, the earth travels trough space at over 17,000 kilometers per hour, when you are walking down the street, you aren't walking that fast.

What is the cost per man hour for yard work?

I would say about $12 an hour per person for normal yard work. Anythig out of the ordinary should raise this price.

How many mph will a motorist travel 11 feet for each speed before hitting the brake?

To calculate how many mph a motorist will travel 11 feet before braking at a certain speed, you can use the formula distance = 1/2 * acceleration * time^2. By solving for time and converting it to seconds, you can calculate the speed in mph. This calculation will vary depending on the specific acceleration of the vehicle.

Why do ants move faster than elephants and why is it that the smaller a creature the quicker it moves and talks and the faster time moves for them and is time experienced relative an objects size?

the reason that ants move faster then elephants is because there is less friction between their feel and the ground meaning that they can move them faster and with less difficulty. this is also because they are lighter in weight!

What is the height of a slope if a car weighing 1000 kg starts at the top at 0 meters per second and ends at the bottom at 20 meters per second?

We set the potential energy formula, PE = mgh, equal to the kinetic energy formula, KE = 1/2mV^2

mgh = 1/2mV^2

cancel m algebraically

gh = 1/2V^2

plug and chug

(9.80 m/s^2)h = 1/2(20 m/s)^2

9.80h = 200

height = 20.4 meters

What is the net force of a capacitor?

The net force on a capacitor in a circuit is zero because the electrical forces acting on the capacitor plates are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, leading to a balanced system. This is due to the fact that the charges on the plates create an electric field that exerts forces that cancel each other out.

Which quantity is the integral of the velocity with respect to time from time 0 to time t?

If you want me to pick out the correct item from a list of multiple choices,

the least you could do would be to let me see the list.

In this case, even if you only gave me the expression for the velocity, I could

integrate it.

Here, you're asking me to point to the correct answer, without letting me see

the question or the choices. Much appreciated, I'm sure.

Will the graph of instantaneous velocity versus time have a Y-axis intercept of zero?

Not necessarily. The graph of instantaneous velocity versus time may or may not have a Y-axis intercept of zero. It depends on the initial conditions and motion of the object. If the object starts from rest, then the initial velocity is zero, and the graph will have a Y-axis intercept at zero.

What is the kinetic energy of a car with the mass of 2500 kilograms moving at 35 meters per second?

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 * mass(kg) * Velocity(m/s) squared

KE = 1/2mV^2

KE =1/2(2500 kg)(35 m/s)^2

= 1531250 Joules

better expressed as

1.5 X 10^6 Joules

What is energy from potenttial energy kinetic energy would be what?

A falling rock. In the air it has potential energy, as it falls it gets kinetic energy.

How much potential energy does the water behind a dam have if it has a mass of 10000000 kg and is at a height of 100 m?

Just use the formula for gravitational potential energy: PE = mgh. That is, you should multiply mass, gravity and height.

How do we know that orbiting objects are accelerating?

In Newtonian physics they are not following a straight path, therefore they must be accelerating.

However in General Relativity they are following a locally straight path through curved spacetime, therefore they are not accelerating.

What are the differences between a Speed vs. Kinetic Energy Graph between a Mass vs. Kinetic Energy Graph?

Look at the equation for kinetic energy.It is clear that relation between mass and kinetic energy is linear (you would get a straight line on the graph), while the relation between speed and kinetic energy is quadratic (you would get a curve, specifically a parabola).

What is the potential energy of a 29-N sledge hammer lifted to a height of 1.4 m?

Two parts.

Force = mass * acceleration

29 N = mass * 9.8 m/s2

mass = 2.959 kilograms

===================now,

PE = mass * gravitational acceleration * height

PE = (2.959 kg)(9.8 m/s2)(1.4 m)

= 41 Joules
