3. What aspect of a force distance graph give you the work done?

Explanation

The work done is determined by the area under the force-distance graph. This is because work is defined as the product of force and displacement, and the area under the graph represents the product of force and distance. Therefore, the greater the area under the graph, the greater the work done. The gradient of the graph, on the other hand, represents the force applied, not the work done. The second derivative is not relevant to determining the work done.

4. A 2Kg mass is given 100J of KE.  How high will it reach if it is thrown vertically upwards?

Explanation

KE turns into mgh
KE=mgh
100 =2x10xh
h=5m

Submit

5. 2Kg mass is thrown with a velocity of 5m/s.  What is its KE?

6. A speed boat is able to travel with a maximum velocity of 20m/s.  The power rating of the engine is 2000W.  What is the sum of the frictional forces on the boat?

Explanation

Submit

7. What is an elastic collision?

Explanation

An elastic collision is a type of collision in which kinetic energy is conserved. This means that the total kinetic energy of the system before the collision is equal to the total kinetic energy after the collision. In an elastic collision, there is no loss of kinetic energy due to friction or deformation of the objects involved. Instead, the objects bounce off each other without any loss of energy, resulting in a conservation of kinetic energy.

8. What is the acceleration of a 40Kg boy sitting on the edge of a merry-go-round.  The tangetial speed is 2m/s.  The diameter of the merry go round is 8m.  What is the acceleration he experiences.

Explanation

Submit

9. When a bucket is being swung round in a circle in a verticle plane, what are the forces acting on the bucket when it is at the lowest point?

Explanation


Remember - centripetal force is only the result of other forces, it is NOT a force in its own right.
