4) A car of mass 1.4 tons travelling along a straight road at aconstant speed, then the driver accelerates to a speed of 46m/s by applying an extra force of 800 N from the engine for 3 seconds. a) What is the change of the cars momentum?

b) Calculate the car's initial speed before acceleration.4) A car of mass 1.4 tons travelling along a straight road at aconstant speed, then the driver accelerates to a speed of 46m/s by applying an extra force of 800 N from the engine for 3 seconds.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh

where… mass: measured in kilograms (kg)

gravity: gravity constant on earth = 10.00 m/s2

height: measured in meters (m)

gpe: measured in joules (j) or kilojoules (kj)

how do you solve gpe?

gravitational potential energy (gpe) is the energy an object has because of its position above the. ground.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh.

given values:

mass = 0.3 kg.

when heated, the valance electrons increased their speed and transferred the heat from electron to electron.   i just took the test.
