Answer:
Time = 11.60 seconds.
Explanation:
Speed can be defined as distance covered per unit time. Speed is a scalar quantity and as such it has magnitude but no direction.
Mathematically, speed is given by the equation;
Given the following data;
Speed = 0.711m/s
Distance = 8.25m
To find the time;
Making time the subject of formula, we have;
Substituting into the equation, we have;
Time = 11.60 secs.
solution:
1.6 m/s = 96 m/min (in other words, 1.6 m/s x 60 s/min)
96 m/min x 8.3 min = 796.8 m
The answer for this change in the magnitude of momentum is the same for both because momentum is always conserved so both vehicles have the identical change.
So for determining who has the greater change in kinetic energy, momentum (P) = mv so P^2 = m^2 v^2 P^2 / 2m = 1/2 m v^2 = energy So the weightier the mass the smaller the energy change for the same momentum change so in here, the car has a greater change in kinetic energy.
