An automobile of mass 1450 kg is slowed from a velocity of 24.6 m/s to 9.6 m/s as it enters a residential area. what work was done on the automobile by the brakes?

To solve this problem we will apply the work theorem and conservation of the energy, for which we have that the total energy used will be equivalent to the kinetic energy defined as half the product of mass and the squared speed, that is

Here,

m = mass

v = Velocity

Now,

Therefore the work done on the automobile by the brakes is 371925J

the minimum amperage that the current in this wire would have to have so that its weight is completely supported by the magnetic force due to earth's field, assuming that no other forces except gravity act on it
