Acart of mass 20 kg, initially at rest, is pushed with a net force of 40 n on a flat surface. if the cart is pushed 5 m, what is the final kinetic energy (ke)? what is the final velocity? (assume no heat losses.)

Using the theorem of kinetic energy
1/2mVf² - 1/2mVi²= WF + Wp,     Wp=0
WF = F. AB, AB=5m and F= 40N, m=20kg
so the final kinetic  is KEf= 1/2mVf² = WF =F. AB= 40*5=200J

the final velocity is 1/2mVf² =200, implies   Vf= sqrt(20)=2sqrt(5)m/s

1) when you rub your hands together quickly, the kinetic energy is converted to mechanical energy.2) thermal energy from the sun travels to earth as infrared waves.3) energy is transferred through the matter of space by electromagnetic waves. 4) when a match is burned, chemical potential energy is converted to thermal and radiant energy. 5) seismicwaves are caused by back and forth movement , or vibration, of an object. 6) mechanicalenergy in an engine changes thermal energy into kinetic energy to make a car move.
