When traveling at top speed, a roller coaster train with a mass of 12,000 kg has a velocity of 30 m/s. The kinetic energy of the train at top speed is
J.

Given this kinetic energy, what is the tallest hill this roller coaster train can reach the top of?

The train can climb a hill that is
m high.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

45.9m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of roller coaster train  = 12000kg

Velocity  = 30m/s

Unknown:

Tallest hill the roller coaster train can reach = ?

Solution:

Kinetic energy is the energy due to the motion of body.

Potential energy is the energy due to the position of a body.

So;

             [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]  m v²    =  mgh  

 m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, h is the height and v is the velocity

                 m v²   = 2mgh

                     v²   = 2gh

                   h  = [tex]\frac{v^{2} }{2g}[/tex]  

                  h  = [tex]\frac{30^{2} }{2 x 9.8}[/tex]   = 45.9m

a. Electrons move from silk to glass
b. Electrons move from glass to silk
c. Protons move from silk to glass
d. Protons move from glass to silk

Answers

Answer: b. Electrons move from glass to silk

Explanation:

When the glass rod is rub over against the silk, the glass loses the electrons due to the physical contact with the silk and the friction so produced.  The surface of the glass becomes positively charged and the surface of the silk becomes negatively charged. As the surface of the glass loses electrons which are accepted by the silk surface.

what is the formula for kinetic energy​

Answers

The equation for Kinetic Energy is KE = 1/2 m v^2, where m is the mass, and v is the velocity. The velocity in this equation is squared, which means that it is exponential. That means that as the velocity increases, you will be multiplying by a bigger and bigger number! KE = 18 joules!

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\bold { \large { \boxed {KE=\frac{1}{2} mv^2}}}}[/tex]

Explanation:

How do pulleys help move objects?

Answers

Pulleys are powerful simple machines. They can change the direction of a force, which can make it much easier for us to move something. If we want to lift an object that weighs 10 kilograms one meter high, we can lift it straight up or we can use a pulley, so we can pull down on one end to lift the object up.

Let A be the second to last digit and let B be the last two digits of your 8-digit student ID. Example: for 20245347, A = 4 and B = 47.A ball rolls off a table. The table top is 1.2 m above the floor and the ball lands 3.6 m from the base of the table. Determine the speed of the ball at the time it rolled over the edge of the table? Calculate the answer in m/s and rounded to three significant figures.

Answers

Answer:

7.35 m/s

Explanation:

Using y - y' = ut - 1/2gt², we find the time it takes the ball to fall from the 1.2 m table top and hit the floor.

y' = initial position of ball = 1.2 m, y = final position of ball = 0 m, u = initial vertical velocity of ball = 0 m/s, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and t = time taken for ball to hit the ground.

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

y - y' = ut - 1/2gt²

0 - 1.2 m = (0 m/s)t - 1/2(9.8 m/s²)t²

- 1.2 m = 0 - (4.9 m/s²)t²

- 1.2 m = - (4.9 m/s²)t²

t² = - 1.2 m/- (4.9 m/s²)

t² = 0.245 s²

t = √(0.245 s²)

t = 0.49 s

Since d = vt where d = horizontal distance ball moves = 3.6 m, v = horizontal velocity of ball = unknown and t = time it takes ball to land = 0.49 s.

So, d = vt

v = d/t

= 3.6 m/0.49 s

= 7.35 m/s

Since the initial velocity of the ball is 7.35 m/s since the initial vertical velocity is 0 m/s.

It is shown thus V = √(u² + v²)

= √(0² + v²)

= √(0 + v²)

= √v²

= v

= 7.35 m/s

A 6.00-kg crate is suspended from the end of a short vertical rope of negligible mass. An upward force F(t) is applied to the end of the rope, and the height of the crate above its initial position is given by y(t)=(2.80m/s)t+(0.610m/s^3)t^3. What is the magnitude of F when t = 4.00 s?

Answers

Answer:

The magnitude of F when t=4 s=146.64 N

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of crate,m=6.00 kg

Height of crate above its initial position is given by

[tex]y(t)=(2.80 m/s)t+(0.610 m/s^3)t^3[/tex]

We have to find the magnitude of F when t=4.00 s

Differentiate w.r.t t

[tex]\frac{dy}{dt]=2.8+3(0.61)t^2[/tex]

[tex]\frac{d^2y}{dt^2}=6(0.61)t[/tex]

[tex]a(t)=\frac{d^2y}{dt^2}=6(0.61)t m/s[/tex]

[tex]a(4)=6(0.61)(4)=14.64 m/s^2[/tex]

Now, magnitude of force

[tex]F=m(a+g)=6(14.64+9.8)=146.64N[/tex]

Hence, the magnitude of F when t=4 s=146.64 N


Bob needs to accelerate a 4 kg box at 2 m/s2. How much force does he need to use?

Answers

8 N

Explanation:

From Newtons second law of motion, we have;

F = ma

where: F is the force applied, m is the mass of the object, and a is its acceleration.

From the given question: mass of box  = 4 kg and acceleration of the box  = 2 m/[tex]s^{2}[/tex], then;

F = 4 x 2

  = 8

F = 8 N

The amount of force to be used is 8 N.  

You are standing next to a table and looking down on a record player sitting on the table. Take the spindle (axis of rotation) to be the center of your coordinate system and the y axis to be perpendicular to the side of the player you are standing next to. Long-playing records revolve 33(1/3) times per minute. You put a small blob of clay at the edge of a record that has a radius of 0.15 m, positioning the clay such that it is at its greatest value of y at t = 0.

Equation of motion for the y component of the clay's position: y(t)=Asin(ωt+ϕi)

Required:
a. What is the rotational speed of the clay?
b. Determine the value of A in the equation of motion.
c. Determine the value of ϕi in the equation of motion. Suppose that −π<ϕi≤π

Answers

Answer:

a) the rotational speed of the clay is  3.45 rad/s

b) the value of A in the equation of motion is 0.15 m

c) the value of ϕi is 90° or π/2 rad.

Explanation:

 Given that;

Revolution per minute rpm = 33( 1/3) =  100/3

The frequency f = 100 / 3(60) = 0.55 Hz

a)

Rotational speed W = 2πf

we substitute

W = 2π × 0.55

W = 3.45 rad/s

Therefore, the rotational speed of the clay is  3.45 rad/s

b)

given equation; y(t)=Asin(ωt+ϕi)

given that radius = 0.15 m

y(t)=(0.2)sin(ωt+ϕi)

Therefore, the value of A in the equation of motion is 0.15 m

c)

since y(t) has the maximum value at t =0

so at t=0

y(0) = (0.15)sin(ω(0)+ϕi)

= 0.15sin(ϕi)

this will give maximum value when ϕi = 90°

so

y(0) = (0.15)sin(ω(0)+ϕi)

= 0.15sin(90°)

= 0.15

hence, the value of ϕi is 90° or π/2 rad.

Explanation:

Data is factual information not subject to bias.

This ultimately implies that, data connotes fact, thus, it is an information that is credible, accurate, a statement of truth, evidential and proven.

In Computer programming, a data dictionary can be defined as a centralized collection of information on a specific data such as attributes, names, fields and definitions that are being used in a computer database system.

In a data dictionary, data elements are combined into records, which are meaningful combinations of data elements that are included in data flows or retained in data stores.

This ultimately implies that, a data dictionary found in a computer database system typically contains the records about all the data elements (objects) such as data relationships with other elements, ownership, type, size, primary keys etc. This records are stored and communicated to other data when required or needed.

The gauge pressure at the bottom of a cylinder of liquid is pg = 0.40 atm. The liquid is poured into another cylinder with twice the radius of the first cylinder. What is the gauge pressure at the bottom of the second cylinder?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

gauge pressure due to a liquid column of density d and height h is given by the following expression .

P = hdg

The pressure depends upon height of liquid column and not on the cross sectional area .

In first cylinder .

gauge pressure = .40 atm

hdg = .40 atm

cross sectional area of cylinder = π r²

The radius of second cylinder is twice of the first , cross sectional area will be 4 times .

The volume remains the same when the liquid is poured into second cylinder

volume = cross sectional area x height .

As cross sectional area of second cylinder is 4 times  , height of liquid column in second cylinder = h / 4 .

gauge pressure in second cylinder = h / 4 x d x g = hdg / 4

.40 / 4 = .10 atm

gauge pressure in second cylinder  = .10 atm.

Answers

Answer:

6.75233 h

Explanation:

✓airplane travels 3100km at a speed of 790km/h,

Speed= distance/ time

Time= speed/distance

Distance=3100 km

Speed=790km/h

Time= 3100 /790

= 3.924 h

✓and then encounters a tailwind that boosts its speed to 990km/h for the next 2800 km

Time= 2800 k990km/h

= 2800/990

= 2.828 h

We can calculate total times as (3.924 + 2.828)

= 6.75233 h

Kayla starts at -3, walks 5 blocks right and 3 blocks left. What is her displacement?

Answers

Answer: The displacement is 1 block.

Explanation:

Let's define:

The right is the positive side.

The left is the negative side.

Then if you start at position A, and you walk N blocks to the right, the new position is:

A + N

And if you start at position A, and you walk M blocks to the left, the new position is:

A - M.

In this case, we know that Kayla starts at -3 and she walks 5 blocks to the right.

Then her new position is:

-3 + 5 = 2

Now she walks 3 blocks to the left, then her new position is:

2 - 3 = -1

The displacement will be equal to the difference between the final position (-1) and the initial position (-2)

Then the displacement is:

D = -1 - (-2) = -1 +2 = 1

The displacement is 1 block.
