Answer: The distance traveled in other to increase its speed from rest to 17m/s is 438.74m
Explanation:
GIVEN the following :
Workdone = 1110000000 J
Force = 2530000 N
Workdone = force × distance
1110000000 = 2530000 × distance
Distance = 1110000000 ÷ 2530000
Distance = 438.735m
Distance = 438.74m
The distance traveled by the freight train in other to increase it’s speed from rest to 17m/s is 438.74m
Answer:
Explanation:
Given that force exerted is constant and parallel to the railroad during acceleration, the equation of work is equal to:
The travelled distance of the freight train is:
