When a lorry and car have the same kinetic energy?
A lorry and a car with the same kinetic energy are brought to rest by the application of brakes which provide equal retarding forces.
When you push a car and a truck by applying the same amount of force the car will accelerate faster than the truck?
If you use the same force to push a truck and push a car, the car will have more acceleration than the truck, because the car has less mass.
Which has more kinetic energy a car or a truck?
The trailer truck has more kinetic energy. The compact car has more kinetic energy.
What will happen if brakes with equal force are applied to a car & a truck which are moving with the same kinetic energy?
A truck and car are both moving with same kinetic energy and brought to rest by applying brakes. The brakes give equal retarding forces to both the vehicles. Since kinetic energy and the retarding force on both the vehicles are same, therefore both will come to rest after travelling equal distances.
Which has more kinetic energy a large truck or a car if both are going the same speed?
Since kinetic energy depends upon the square of the velocity, this implies that the smaller truck will have a higher kinetic energy. If the trucks were traveling at the same speed, it would of course take more work to stop the bigger truck.
What is the relation between kinetic energy and?
The equation for Kinetic Energy is: KE = 1/2 mv2. Kinetic energy has a direct relationship with mass, meaning that as mass increases so does the Kinetic Energy of an object. The same is true of velocity. However, mass and velocity are indirectly related.
How will a lorry and a car be brought to rest?
A lorry and a car with the same kinetic energy are brought to rest by the application of brakes which provide equal retarding forces. Which of them will come to rest in a shorter distance? Since both the vehicles have the same kinetic energy and are subject to the same force (F) the distance covered by both lorry and car will be the same.
Why do lorries and cars stop at the same distance?
Since both the vehicles have the same kinetic energy and are subject to the same force (F) the distance covered by both lorry and car will be the same. Thus both will stop at the same distance. Was this answer helpful?
What is the difference between kinetic energy and force?
Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by the body by virtue of its motion. Regarding force is the force which opposes the motion of the vehicle. Given that same kinetic energy and same retardation, force has been applied.
