(b) Another bus travels at a speed of 8.9 m / s. The brakes apply a


constant force and the bus stops in a distance of 23 m. This bus has a
mass of 18 000 kg.

(i) Calculate the kinetic energy of the bus before the brakes are
applied.
(i) Calculate the force applied to stop the bus.

2 (a) Define impulse.

(b) Fig. 2.1 shows a rocket and its exhaust gases.

rocket

exhaust gases

Fig. 2.1

The exhaust gases are emitted from the rocket with a velocity of
1400 m / s and at a rate of 2800 kg / s.

(i) Show that the force exerted on the rocket by the exhaust

gases is 3900 kN. State the equation you use.

(ii) Calculate the maximum mass that this force can lift from the ground.
Ignore air resistance.
3 (a) A car has a weight of 13 000 N. The car is supported by 4 tyres. The
area of each tyre in contact with the road is 0.016 m2.

(i) Calculate the pressure on the road due to the weight of the car.

(ii) Explain, in terms of particles, why the air pressure in the tyres
increases when the car travels along the road.

(b) A gas cylinder contains helium gas at a pressure of 2.0 × 106 Pa. A
volume of 0.026 m3 of the compressed gas is released from the cylinder
into balloons. Each balloon contains 0.015 m3 of helium at atmospheric
pressure (1.0 × 105 Pa). The temperature remains constant.

Calculate the maximum number of balloons that can be filled.

4 (a) Define specific heat capacity.

(b) A volume of 0.0024 m3 of oil is heated in a pan for 7.0 min. The
temperature of the oil increases from 20 °C to 180 °C.

The density of the oil is 910 kg / m3. The specific heat capacity of the
oil is 2000 J / (kg °C).

(i) Calculate the mass of oil in the pan.

(ii) Calculate the energy required to increase the temperature of the oil.

(iii) Calculate the power required to supply the energy calculated in


(b)(ii).
