A train is moving with a velocity of 20 m/s. when the brakes are applied the acceleration is reduced to -0.6 m/s².calculate the distance covered by the train before coming to rest

x = 333.33 [m]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the following kinematics equation.

where:

Vf = final velocity = 0

Vi = initial velocity = 20 [m/s]

a = desacceleration = 0.6 [m/s^2]

x = distance [m]

Note: the final speed is zero as the body finishes its movement.

Now replacing:

0 = (20)^2 - (2*0.6*x)

1.2*x = 400

x = 333.33 [m]

i believe the answer is a

answer: 802.3 kilo joules of energy represents 191.75 kilo calorie of energy.

explanation:

energy released during combustion of one mole methane = 802.3 kilo joules

if 1 kilo joule = 0.239006   kilo calorie

then ,802.3 kilo joule will be = 802.30.239006 kilo calorie

802.3 kilo joule = 191.75 kilo calorie

hence, the energy in kilo calorie is 191.75 kilo calorie.
