A cyclist rides straight for 12 kilometers, then turns and rides straight for another 5 kilometers. Find the total distance travelled by the cyclist.
12km + 5km = 17km
A 3 kg book is placed on a shelf 2 meters high.
Calculate the gravitational potential energy of the book.
Hint: Potential Eneregy = m x g x h
60J
A runner covers a distance of 400 meters in 50 seconds.
Calculate the runner's average velocity.
8 m/s
A 5 kg object is moving with a velocity of 10 m/s.
Calculate the kinetic energy of the object.
Hint: KE = 0.5 x m x v2
250J
A boat travels at a velocity of 8.00 m/s for 14.0 s. What is the displacement of the boat.
What is 112m
A bowling ball with a mass of 1.05kg is traveling at a velocity of 2.47 m/s and smashes into a wall. How much energy does the bowling ball have when it hits the wall.
What is 3.20 J
Two cars start at the same point and drive in a straight line for 5km. At the end of the drive their distances are the same but their displacements are different. How?
What is drive different directions
If a race car travels at an average speed of 77.0 m/s over a distance of 570 m, how long has it been traveling for?
Hint: time = distance divided by speed
What is 7.41s
If Ricky lifts an object 5.2m into the air and the object has potential energy of 52.7 J, then what is the mass of the object?
Hint: PE = m x g x h
1kg
A dolphin sees a school of fish and travels from 2.0 m to 13m to catch them. If it took him 5.7 seconds to travel that distance, what is his speed?
What is 1.9m/s
Brian tosses a hammer of 1.7kg into the air to a height of 9.2 m. How much energy was used to throw the mass into the air?
Hint: PE = m x g x h
m = mass
g= gravity = 10
h = height
156J
