Water has a high specific heat capacity. Oil has a smaller heat capacity.
Answer:
The horizontally applied force = 2360 N
Explanation:
<em>Force:</em> Force can be defined as the product of mass and acceleration. the S.I unit of force is Newton (N)
Fh = Fr + ma......... Equation 1
Where Fh = horizontally applied force, Fr = friction force, m = mass of the crate, a = acceleration of the crate.
<em>Given: m = 400 kg, a = 1 m/s²</em>
Fr = 1/2 W, W = mg ⇒W = 400×9.8 = 3920 N
∴Fr = 1/2(3920), Fr = 1960 N
Substituting these values into equation 1
Fh = 1960 + 400×1
Fh = 1960 + 400
Fh = 2360 N
Therefore the horizontally applied force = 2360 N
Answer:
h = 0.46 m
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of energy:
Potential Energy Lost by Roller Coaster = Kinetic Energy Gained by Roller Coaster
where,
h = height = ?
v = speed at bottom = 3 m/s
g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²
Therefore,
<u>h = 0.46 m</u>
The answer would be Newton’s Second Law
