The engine of a 1520-kg automobile has a power rating of 75 kw. determine the time required to accelerate this car from rest to a speed of 100 km/h at full power on a level road. is your answer realistic?

t=15.68 s

Explanation:

Given that

m = 1520 kg

P =75 KW

We know that

Power  ,P = F .v

F=force

v=velocity

v= 100 km/h

v=27.77 m/s

75 x 1000  = F x 27.77

F= 2700.75 N

F= m a

m=mass

a=acceleration

2700.75 = 1520 x a

 a=1.77 m/s²

time t given as

v= u + a t

27.77 = 0 + 1.77 x t

t=15.68 s

when insulating materials rub against each other, they may become electrically charged . electrons , which are negatively charged, may be 'rubbed off' one material and on to the other. the material that gains electrons becomes negatively charged. the material that loses electrons is left with a positive charge.
