An automobile has a mass of 1200 kg. What is its kinetic energy, in kJ, relative to the road when traveling at a velocity of 50 km/h? If the vehicle accelerates to 100 km/h in 15 seconds, what is the change in power required?
A 1250 kg car drives up a hill that is 16.2 m high. During the drive, two nonconservative forces do work on the car: (i) the force of friction, and (ii) the force generated by the car's engine. The work done by friction is -2.91 times 10^5 J; the work done by the engine is 6.64 times 10^5 J. Find the change in the car's kinetic energy from the bottom of the hill to the top of the hill.
3. An engine exerts a force of 10000 N on a 1000 kg car travelling over a flat road. The force (overcoming friction) accelerates the car from rest such that it travels a distance of 50 m in 5 s Find e. the net acceleration of the car, f. normal force exerted by the road on the car, and g. the coefficient of kinetic friction between the car and the road? 4.

13) There are several types of drag on a car other than air resistance. Effects having to do with the squeezing of the tires (rolling resistance) and frictional forces in the drivetrain (the system that transfers energy from the engine to the rotation of the wheels) also must be taken into account. Engineers use the following equation to model the total force due to these different effects Fdrag=A+Bv+Cv2Fdrag=A+Bv+Cv2 For a Camry, these coefficients are estimated to be A=117.130A=117.130 N, B=1.800...
A 1500-kg car starts from rest and accelerates uniformly to 18.0 m/s in 12.0 s over a dry concrete road. Assume that kinetic friction remains constant at 400 N during this time. – (a) Find the net work done on the car and the work done by the engine. – (b) How many revolutions does each tire make over the 12.0 s interval?

7. A 1300 kg car drives up a 17 m high hill (the elevation of the hill is 17 meters). During the drive two nonconservative forces do work on the car: the force of friction and the force generated by the car’s engine. The work done by friction adds 331 kJ to the internal energy. The work done by the engine is 634 kJ. (a) What is the change in the car’s kinetic energy? (b) If the car started up...
