- The rate of energy use in a typical house is about 2 kW. If the kinetic energy of a car (mass 1358 kg) is equal to the total energy used by the house in 1 min, what is the car's speed? m/sarrow_forwardYou are throwing a ball to a friend while taking physics and begin to wonder about work. You know that when you throw, you exert a force of 655 N on the ball (which has mass 1.84 kg), and that you do so for a distance of 0.27 m. If you start the throw from rest, what is the final speed of the ball? When you show your work for this question, you must do the calculations using work and energy for credit. If you use kinematics you will not recieve credit. Your Answer: units Answerarrow_forwardA 2 kg object is thrown downward on an incline with initial velocity of 5m/s. After 12 meter displacement, its velocity becomes 8m/s. What is work done on the object by friction during the motion? (friction is between object and inclined surface). (Please type all steps of your solution and show the formulas you have used.)arrow_forward
- A bullet is fired into a large stationary absorber and comes to rest. Temperature measurements of the absorber show that the bullet lost 2110 J of kinetic energy, and high-speed photos of the bullet show that it was moving at 915 m/s just as it struck the absorber. What is the mass of the bullet?arrow_forwardThe energy needed to increase the speed of a certain car from 22 m/s to 44 m/s is 240 kJ. At what speed is the car is kinetic energy equal to 240 kJ? arrow_forwardA man is pulling a sled (m-120 Kg) across the snowy tundra (see the figure below) by applying a force of 210 N at an angle of 9-18° with respect to the ground. He pulls the sled over a distance of 100 m. The sled started from rest and reached a final velocity of 6.8 m/s. How much work is done by the man on the sled measured in kJ? (1kJ = 1000J)arrow_forward
